I dunno how many of you have heard yet, but PE is working on it's first Spool Valve gun. Incase you don't know they normaly make popit style gun ergo the EGO. Well they just announced the GEO which is a Spool. (DM,PM, Ion, Shocker, etc) This is huge news as PE is saying they have been looking at Spool valves guns for 4 years and improved on everyting bad with them. There is only 3 moving parts on the whole gun, 2 or 3 orings, and tool less maintanence. They also claim it is more effecient than any other spool out right now. IF all this is true I say good job to PE, but I'm not holding my breath. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZ_ZOYOTJ7Y&feature=bzb302http://www.spirit-of-paint.tv/PlanetEclipseGeo/The Geo looks great and I'd love to grab one, but MSRP is $1250.....so for now I wait but in a couple years I may have to snag a used one for sure!

Very nice! I couldn't afford it though. . . Maybe if I win a bunch of money I would get one.

yea, I love PE and their guns but they are expensive.....I would never have owned one if I didn't trade for my '07 Ego. I still miss that gun, if only it wasn't blue! Ohhh well the Etek2 is just as nice and looks sick...it just says Etek and not Ego.

I think the Geo is gonna be just a little heavier because of the Spool Valve.

Ahh. but still the Ego is very light, so the Geo shouldn't be much heavier. I imagine it wont be much.

No not at all. It will still be very light when compared to a DM, PM, or Shocker. If you look at it size wise it is just a little wider than the Ego which makes me think it will be slightly heavier. Probbaly nothing noticable unless you hold it on a scale.
