So it’s been a while since any of us have posted anything on
this blog. Since we’ve all been busy with our lives, but now I feel like its
time to come back to it, at least for the time being. I have been blessed with
the opportunity of jumping into a tournament paintball team that has been
sponsored by a local field and proshop. Currently one of my teammates is the Macdev
distributor for Canada so we have been afforded the opportunity to shoot Macdev
guns. By no means does this mean that I ended up getting a whole bunch on
Macdev stuff for free, but it was, lets just say, more affordable. So after buying
a Macdev Clone GT, and using it for a whole season of tournaments and practices
I’ve decided to put out a review on the marker.
To be honest my philosophy is that a gun is a gun, what
defines a player is the person shooting it. A higher end gun in the hands of a
skilled player does cause improvement, but it won’t make you into a superstar paintballer
like Konstantin Federov. That being said the Macdev Clone GT is a superb
shooting gun. Its integrated air regulation system allows you to ditch the macroline
hose and makes the gun feel more updated, and worth your hard earned money.
Features like an OLED display system, tool-less clamping feed neck, laser eyes,
and tool-less pull out bolt/drive system make the GT a great gun. It is a very
soft and quiet shooting gun. The Clone allows us to shoot the most brittle
paint in cold conditions, and we’ve never experienced any major issues. I’ve
tested most loaders on the feed neck and I know that it fits the Dye Rotor, Empire
Prophecy, ViewLoader Vlocity, and the Virtue Spire without any problems.
