quality of guns

you can't really disagree in the last year quality control has dropped faster than the level of paint in the hopper of a ramping trix. check out the milling of a ripper 2, the quality of it is horrible. i mean if i'm gonna drop $1300 i want the milling to be spot on.

Yes, I know... but that's not what I was talking about, I was talking about the milling. My GXe is dusted, but the edges don't seem as rough as the karni I held.

when the empire 1st came out it was delivered to our team at a psp event. out of the box it was messed up. we took it to bob long himself... long story short he didnt know what was wrong. if you put your name on a gun, atleast know how to fix it.

ive said it before and ill say it again... all guns are the same. they all have eyes, they all shoot a million balls a second, they all look pretty. give me somthing thats bomb proof.

I don't like timmys, just because the quality can vary so much between guns. I've shot amazing guns and I've shot crap. And I've shot guns that were supposedly working great then went down a second later.

If I were to buy a timmy, it would be from my shop where I can shoot it and make sure it works right and I like it and everything.

cyborgs = high quality.

But a timmy cost bob a couple hundred bux to make and he makes 200+% profit off each gun... Like Hungry said, National has no quality control


But... they still do what they do cause ppl will still buy the guns..
