RE: Guardian or General???
I have the new 08 General and my opinion is it's much more refined, has a better feel whenyou shoot it,and has better cams than the 2008(or 2007)Guardian. Long brace, good speed, and better overall. The shorter A-to-A took me some getting used to but I like it now.
I'm betting the Guardian (or new renamed replacement) will be refined for 09, but just a guess.
