My Review of the "newest " pump marker from Kee Action Sports.
My first impression was surprise at the mil-sim look of the marker lots of picatinny rails to put all sorts of aftermarket sights,  flashlights etc on, my next discovery was that the pump handle was plastic.Now this is a entry level marker and the price of the marker reflects that.
Out of the box the marker efficiency was 125 paintballs on a 13cu/3000 psi tank so the efficiency is not bad.
Accuracy was again not bad I changed the barrel to a Proto barrel and the accuracy was improved greatly .
The pump action was a bit stiff and although this could just be that it was new and needed to be worked in the pump stroke just never seemed to be smooth, perhaps that since I play with lot of higher end pumps I am a bit spoiled.

The ability to use first stike paintballs with out doing a fair amount of modding is a great idea.
I did not attempt it  but I do think a BT Rp Clip could be installed with little or no effort.
Overall I was impressed with the marker a great starter gun or solid back-up for the pump player.
 
 Should in stock shortly
 
Thanks Sheldon
