This is the only place that you can at least pre-order the next ones that they get.

I don't have one, I was so close to get one though.
It has a long outter barrel, making it an EVEN LONGER inner barrel (due to the fact that it reaches from flash hider to magazine located ALL THE WAY IN THE BACK Very Happy)
Making it a great accurate gun. Even more accurate if you were to install a tightbore.

Two stage trigger (meaning pull trigger half way, your shooting semi, pull trigger ALL THE WAY, your shooting auto).

You might want to quickly get a red dot, that doesn't come with iron sights.

And you might want to order from here...

The sticker price is lower on Evike, plus an additional 15% off any order when you have a good coupon code. You can find Evike coupon codes through Google.

yeah but the site i posted is the only place where you can pre-order them when they're out of stock, and if i put a red dot sight on it would it be high enough that i could see through the sight with a mask on?

With a paintball type mask, you're going to have trouble with any sort of optics, be it iron sights or reflex. I think though, that a reflex (or red dot) sight would give you the most flexibility and accuracy even if you wear a paintball type mask.

And I just took a second look at that site you linked. I'm surprised how much lower the price is on that site than it is on GI or Evike. Assuming they've got decent handling and reliability, they should be your best bet as far as price goes.

Little OT but if you're having trouble looking down the sights or optics with a paintball style mask there's a few things you can do. First and easiest would be to chuck the full face mask and go with a pair of nice impact resistant glasses or goggles. If your not confident enough to go without some full face coverage get the same as above and also something like a balaclava, bandana, or a shemagah wear on your face.

You got to remember iliveforthis99 that sometimes were forced to wear masks without an option...
Here at SC (and i'm sure at other fields as well) we have to wear face masks in order to play, not because they want us too, but because they need us too.
Paintballers have a tendecy to shoot us airsofters... soo...
Nuff Said?

You shouldn't have problems aiming with a face mask on the phantom...
But if you do... grab a riser they do oodles to facemasks and red dots

Ah yeah forgot about that. I never play anywhere that makes you wear them, so yeah i can't abide wearing masks for airsoft even though i have a really nice one from my paintball days.
