Help
OK, I've NEVER owned a high end electro, so I need to know everything. I've read the manual for the DM4, but I want to know some of the common problems DM4s have and how to prevent them, I'm kind of nervous about buying an electro, hopefully I don't like it too much, LOL. I didn't post in the other thread though because it's turning into a fight it seems like, and I didn't want to hijack it.

Ok, first of all, buy an oring kit. That's pretty much it.

Hater sauce should be fine, but be sure to learn to lube your HPR, LPR, and bolt. Also, learn to tune your DM4 (if it's not yet already).
Also, just be logical when you take her apart. Think before you do anything, and she'll treat you real nice.

OK thanks, I really don't know what I'm getting myself into buying an electro, but ever since I started playing in '04 I wanted a DM4, 4 years late, I'm getting one.

LOL, I hope that's the case! Thanks for the help lefty! You know what they say, 100% of Americans are born right handed, but only 7% are smart enough to overcome it.

It is the case, I shot a DM7, awesomely beautiful, but my DM4 shoots smoother, like easy-spread butter smooth.
If you ever need help with yours, let me know. I'm in the process of messing with mine. (Putting an ETek frame, and other stuff, maybe a new ano, not sure yet. )

)OK, thanks, by the way do you know what it's worth? Check out my post in the appraisals section if you would know what it's worth at all.

god i remember when the DM4 first came out. We all were using tippmanns and spyders in our outlaw group and the best guy among us, Ken, went out and buys a DM4. He was known as "The Cleaner" before hand, now it was just a mop up for him every game. Really forced me to have to learn how to move and play better when going against much superior fire power. God i miss that DM4. Great marker. First one to really start the crazy milling on Matrixes

Yeah, I'm still going to use my gravity fed 50 round hopper probably, I just want to try a High End, around here an Ion is considered insane firepower, when I played last everyone was scared of this kid with an Ion, mostly because he bonus balled a bunch of people. I proved that firepower doesn't mean that much the second game we played with that kid, I was using my back up US-5 and I side doored the jerk laying 8 balls on him. Excessive? Yes. Inappropriate in that instance? Not really.

But I was planning on sticking my spring feed into my DM4, but alas, that would be useless. The thing rips stock, though my trigger bounces too much....
