Love my ARK!

ezcreation · 02-01-2011, 04:23 PM

Õur team got lucky enough to be sponsored by Angel and we picked the ARK as we play Scenario in Ontario.

Review so far is really good. Smooth, insanely efficient. Indoor we must go down to 250fps and ARK does not like it much (tiny leak easily adjustable) but as soon as in the 280/300 range all good.

here is my set-up:

As you can see I am using a Deadlywind barrel (lighter and smoother imo). I have replaced the stock ASA with the POPS. More a luxury than a necessity but the POPS is very very nice.
I replaced the ARK graphics with mine (Conan one side, team logo other side).

The mojo board must be the most under-rated board I have seen: easy to navigate and program.

So far marker is a huge success!

Nice looking gun man. Love the look of the reg no roto-breach though

. I am glad to hear that someone is still shooting Angels these days.
Congrats on the sponsorship btw

Thank you!
Well we were curious when the ARK came out and honestly it is a beast!

We're sponsored by Angel as well, but none of us that shoot them care much for the milsim looks. Plus I think the lack of roto-breach has turned most of them off to the ARK, so they're sticking with their current Angels.

Is the top rail removable? The top rail looks ok, kinda adds a cool look to it, but cleaning a hit out of those rails can be a big pain in the ***.

Top rail is fix. Side rail (not on picture) can be removed.

Personnaly I like the no rotor-breech but that a s personal preference

It's weird not having one, but not owning one myself could add to that. I have a A1, and a LED, and really liked the idea of the Roto breech, though the reasons for why they got rid of it makes sense. I'm sure a lot of the people that say they don't like it not having the roto-breech doesn't actually own a AR:K...which I think they would get used to if they did own it.

the trouble with teh current roto breech is the that they are using the bolt to prevent the rotation of the breech block, which enharrently will lead to bolt stick. the older guns dont have this problem becuase the rotobreech was secured with a second pin in the body.

so they decided to fix the breach in the gun, and drop the pin out the underside.

im not sure im a fan of that solution. seems to me a better solution would be preventing rotation of the rotobreach with something other then the bolt.
