How good is a tippmann x7?

Answer 1

There are two versions of the X7, the original is just an A5 with a larger body, the A5 is simply a 98 with a larger body and a cyclone feeder, there is really nothing better about it over the A5 it is just a different look. The X7 phenom on the other hand works on a completely different operating principle. It operates very similarly to an old automag concept where it is basically a mechanical spool valve. The phenom is smoother and quieter than the 98 base (not by huge amounts but it is noticable). It will also be a little more efficient and consistent. If you are asking if the regular X7 is good, it is just as good as an 98, the phenom is a little better HOWEVER, for the money there are much better options out there than either that are not only cheaper but easier to work on, smaller and lighter and basically just better overall markers.
