So i got a proto matrix rail used through pbnation.com for $180
I got it 3 days later, and it out of its box, and wow!! It is really really light. Also small, my 88ci tank is about as big as the gun (maybe bigger). I aired it up and took it out to my back yard and shot a whole 500 rounds through it (didnt plan on using the whole bag but its just SO fun to shoot). The 1/4 thick piece of wood I was shooting at, started to get a hole in it (the gun was shooting at 300 fps, i guess the bps was high enough to punch through the wood O.o), so I got a metal sheet that was sitting nearby to shoot at. Out of the 500 rounds, I got no ball breaks.
The next day, I took it to beavertown to play with and had a blast. Compared to my SP8 this thing is a feather, so I got to run around much much more. Only complaint that day was that when I changed the velocity, it kept turning it too far, it turns out that a 1/4 turn changes the velocity like 50 fps or so. At beaver town I did have a ball break or two, but it got cleaned right out by the fifth shot or so after the break.
Cleaning this gun compared to the SP8 is childs play. A new born baby could do it. You just unscrew the back and pull the bolt out and oil it up.
The accuracy is pretty good with a stock barrel, I might upgrade to a sly barrel or a stiffi though (make the gun even LIGHTER!!!!)
The rate of fire is very very good right out of the box, the gun shoots faster then I'll ever need it to shoot.
I made the trigger a little too sensitive, and at the oak flats game last weekend, if i jumped, or jerked my hand around at all, the gun would fire, I fixed that easily with an allen wrench though.
Only complaint about this gun is its efficiency (could also be due to the fact that I shoot much more with this gun)
It eats through a tank of air pretty fast, and my 88ci and my 45ci have to last me all day (unless I am playing at hinkle, or someone has a scuba tank)
I give it a 9/10 it is a great gun for its price
