    I've been pretty sure this is the marker I'm gonna buy soon here just gotta save some cash but you definitely got me locked in on getting it. It seems pretty bad ass without spending $1600. I cant wait to get it. Its driving me nuts I can't just order the sucker

    Thanks for putting this out there it was super helpful. I'm getting back into paintball after being away for a while and I'm leaning towards getting the 170R. The only marker I have right now is an old Smart Parts Ion so this will be a huge upgrade.

    Good stuff, really helpy! With your hel i have bought full mechanical upgrade kit not just frame! THX! BTW i have got 170 after 160 and i need to say that 170 is a tooootal different. Of course it cant be compared to 3.5\cs1 smooth whush shoots. And cs2 is level more, of course. But my god you feel the signal that ball was shot, not the shot. I mean it does not whispers like top shooters, but for people who likes the feel of shots it is doing the best. The 160 has some attitude to look like top shooters, so loved by most players, but is does its job not so gteat, so you got some really mixed feel of ball, too many different noises and vibrations happaned through the cycle. This just says "im done, press for more" =)

    I think late 2020 isn’t a bad idea. PE does roll out with new markers relatively quickly but they are backlogged right now and still haven’t released the mech frame for the CS2 yet.

    I don't mind the detents, but I am not fond of the antiquated case, trigger and grip ergonomics. I do hate the barrel. Why is it the shit 4 barrel and empires driver x barrels are so difficult to buy different diameter barrel backs for?? Think how many thousands and thousands of Geos, cs1s, gteks, etha 2s, Lv series and eteks that have come with a. 692 or .689 barrel back when most paint is a lot smaller? Just raise the cost of the 170r again and sell it with a .685 FL barrel and a soft case.
