Angel

Gold 06 speed · 03-31-2006, 08:49 PM

Hi, guys it's gold again. OK, when I talk to people I ask them what their favorite gun is. I have heard many different answers, but when they ask me the same question, I tell them angle and it seems like most of them say they don't like angel and most of the time they never say why, they just say "cause I don't". What do you think of angel (any type) and please post why you like them or hate them and give logical reasons why, not just "cause I hate them".
I love angels becuase they are fast, they are reliable, they work when you pull them out of your bag, I love the 90 degree grip frames, there isn't very much cleaning and lubing that needs to be done. I just love how they shoot, they are comfortable to me.
Oh, and post your favorite gun and your most hated gun too and post why please.

some people dont like angels because if you break it, it costs just as much to fix one as it did to pay for it. also you have to order the replacement parts from london or wherever others dont like them because of the height of them, mainly front players.

I LOVE MY ANGEL!!!
because, no tuning required (haven't lubed my gun in 2 years) only a few drops of oil in the asa and your good to go, You never have to keep checking if you settings are correct, (like dwell, lpr, etc.) because once you have set them you don't have to mess with them ever again unless you want to try a new setting. NEVER breaks down on me. I have another teammate that has an angel and, him and me are the only ones at practice NOT trying to get our gun to work.

and for the comment by "thief"..... tsch, you don't have to order parts from London, all you have to do is go to your local pb dealer and get it from them, and they can get them from the very many "angel tech" shops IN AMERICA or you can call them yourself and get the parts you need. Cool huh? But you're right about the height may be alittle longer than other guns but you get use to it.

I have liked the Angels I've owned too. Overall they are a good gun and are low maintenence. I had a bunch of problems with my 04 Speed and the SENSI, but I would buy a newer Angel with eyes. I also don't really like the 90 frames but that's just preference and can easily be fixed by putting on a 45.

Angels are amazing guns. I have owned many and only sold cus i moved on to the next one.

Led's
LCd's
speed 04 and speed o5's

never had any trouble with them and they always work great.

I can be the last one to the field and after everyone has spent hours gettin ready i can put the hopper an dtank on the gun and be ready to go in a moments notice for that first game.

Only ever had to put a drop of lube in the ASA or in the breach area to keep it maintained. I have had my speed o5 for over a year now and never had to take it to a shop. Its been set at 270 and constantly shoots that.

Angels for me are the only way to go.

or my phantom.

Well I'm not the only one that likes angel, however I still think it is a gun that people need to give a chance. I think Dm's are the most popular high end gun and angels are one of the lowest and my thoughts are that the reason dm's are so popular is because it's made by dye. Angel does a lot to promote their stuff, I just think that people like dm's better than angel because they are made by dye "hey check this out I have a dye thing cool huh? I'm think I am rich". Angel makes great products too. I like dye don't get me wrong, but my god.....just cause it's made by dye doesn't mean it's the best. Hey maybe angel is more popular than I think.
I'm not talking shit about dm's or dye or anything, I'm saying what I see.
There also had been guys tell me that I suck because I shoot an angel. This is what I think, let me know what you think about this. It's not the gun, it's the player. You see I believe if a team is good enough they can take out any team (dynasty, naughty dogs, strange, or whoever) with pumps, even if dynasty uses their shockers.

It bugs me how people that arent into tourney ball ask me what kind of gun I have and when I tell them they have never heard of it and ask if its as good as an angel. The only high end guns noobs know of are angels and they think its the best in the world. I like them though. I think they look good but if I were to get one it would have to be one with eyes.

I played with an angel lcd and led for a long time and had it tuned so that i could shoot fast enough to keep the oppenent down and never break paint, with out eyes. I do love the speed 05 with the laser eyes and never had trouble with them.

I like them cus they work consistently great and easy to clean if paint does break, usually due to the hopper or paint quality, or lack of quality.

I used to only shoot cocker with e-blades and what not, now I just dont have the cash to pick up any new guns and I enjoy my current gun and dont play enough to swap guns out.

Ions are also great guns, specially for how cheap they are, they have eyes, small body, tons of upgrades and user freindly.

My friends mainly have angels, ions or pumps.

"is it as good as an angel" Ok, you can't really compare a gun with another gun. It' personal preference!

Krispy, I have used and owned many guns and I have yet to see an angel break a ball. Ions are great guns for the price, I bought one used for a few games, then sold it because it doesn't shot like an angel, I am so used to angels now I can't use any other gun.

I dont think my post really made sence, but what I was saying was that everyone at my school talks to me and asks if I have heard of angels and stuff and they have never heard of dms, egos, timmys or anything high end. Like I said though angels are sweet.
