Came to a conclusion a few days ago.I am not paying over 600 dollars for a hand fed bad a** ccm sr1.I have aquired another T9.1.My thoughts went to a DAM or the MILSIG or the SAR12.All of these are well over 600 dollars without attachments ect.I have had great luck with my tiberius markers.Sticking with the 9.1 will let me play more and cost wise I can get more ammo. I got my second one for 250 shipped with all the trimmings.So now I will run a scoped version on hpa and a red dot version on 12 grams.Think of it for under 500 you can get a fsr gun,riser ,scope,HH barrel and 200 or so fsr rnds.I also debated semi or bolt.Semi gives you a better chance at second shoots.Plus you can stay on your sight picture.There is no moving to recock or shove another fsr in the chamber.Some may say the 9.1 is moody I think its all bs seems to working fine for me 3 weeks in a row without breaking it down and cleaning.No missfeeds or chopps.

You sound like someone made you angry or offended you there Casper? I don't think that anyone (those respectable folks here) would or should come down on you for your choice of platform. However, it is an argument to made when one discusses the nuances of barrels, feed options, HPA vs CO2, regulator consistency, so on and so forth. For those that have the money to spend and want to go to a different platform, let 'em. What works for you is what works for you - period - end of story.
Nessy sold me his T9.1 way back, then he gets the Paradigm Pro (which I just happened to be the only guy to play with it in a live game) and then he goes off and orders a SAR12. But then again, due to his profession as well as good fortune, he has deeper pockets than most. Then we go shooting. Side by side with all the other mods I was still outstandingly impressed with the performance and consistency of the Paradigm Pro compared to the SAR12 and anything I had ever seen from the Tiberius. As such, I offered to make yet another deal with the devil. I offered to trade back the T9.1 (as I knew he had other plans for it) in exchange for the MilSig Paradigm Pro plus the difference of value in cash once I sold some of my other gear off. He takes the deal and I am now the proud owner of the Paradigm Pro.....MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA......😈 But, I digress.
In turn, Nessy has taken the modded T9.1 and put some more work into it, having added a HH barrel and a Flasc suppressor. This he intends to use as a shorter range recon platform. Overall, I am sure that he will find his place for it in his arsenal. But who am I to knock it? Do I think my Paradigm Pro is superior to his T9.1? (Yes.....LOL) But, that depends on the situation, mission, and purpose. Shot for shot I think the Paradigm Pro will out perform on long range shots and consistency. However, if he was running forward recon and I was his over watch long range shooter I think each of our chosen platforms would be applicable to the team dynamic.
In conclusion, what I am trying to say is, find your niche and the best tools for it. Is what we have expensive? Yer damn sure. But, if you are happy with the platform you have and have the means to employ it properly, you are as much a threat to the OpFor as any other player.

Not angry at all, I am a recon kinda guy! Maybe that's why 9.1 fits me. Historically I am a stockclass pb player and have always dreamed of the accuracy of the fsr since the Dino days of pb! Now it's here ! Milsig seemed very long my 9.1s are short.supporting a designated shooter will be a great mission someday. I am seeing more and more how weight and size of the rnds make a diffrence.Hope to see you guys and do some shooting soon

You should be getting some more data from Nessy and myself after this next weekend. We will be testing some mods to rounds as well as zeroing our rifles for a coming competition in September. I think I will shooting some video and pass it along as well.

m14, not a bad analogy there Well allu how about the M21 lol!!!M14 is one I thought of during all this thinking about the next gen of fsr guns! The Tiberius line will always be the first!Affordable,reliable (in some peoples eyes)and we know acurate!! |

Yes, that would be the difference between the t9 and the 9.1 maybe? In any case, I approve of this analogy  |
