Trracer Question

Are Trracer's pretty reliable? Also do they run good of 12g's? Also is the feedneck removable so I can make it stock class?

Thank you,
Adam

Trracers/Maverics are very reliable and can run pretty well on 12g co2. However, the feed neck doesn't just come off like some other markers, you would need a second body and some time doing custom work to make it SC.

Yes
Decently, but not great
Not without some work, elbow+tube is your best bet.

They're good, basic markers. As they said, you'll need some time to convert a body to stock class.

As for efficiency, they're pretty solid. Especially if you know what you're doing when tuning the valve/hammer springs.

I sometimes choose my maverick over my phantom. I like the feel of my maverick, while my phantom performs better.

So they are good markers? Recommend to buy? Would it be a solid stock class marker?

Thank you,
Adam

Are Mavericks Good Markers?

As the name says are Mavericks good markers? Better than Trracers? Also are they used in stock class tournaments often?

Thank you,
Adam

Maverick and Trracer are the same gun, Like a VM and PMI3.

The Trracer/Maverick is one of the best deals out there. They really are quite decent quality markers and you can pick them up for as little as $30 in excellent condition. I don't think you can beat them for the bang/buck ratio.
