no use to mince words you get just what you buy& pay for. those that buy a CB because it suppose to shoot say 340 fps. the cost $350 ! so you have this latest CB and it has issues that have been told over and over. my pt. is ppl rather pay that for a poorly made CB than buy a quality CB thats 50/60 fps slower and has a running track record for 25 years. why is it the speed CB comes with a 1 year warranty and serial # vs. one thats has no serial # as if something does break 1 month or 5 years from now it will be repaired, no problem. i invest with a great company not a certain flamethrower CB! i really don't give a rats arse what you buy, i do care about having to read about your woes in a few months. so if you buy it and it tears up we don't want to hear about it! complain to the CB company your CB was built by.[]
