The CS2 from Eclipse was such a popular gun that naturally, I was excited to try out it’s replacement the CS3. So I did what I always do when new stuff comes out, go to Sac Paintball and decide what color I want to buy. We did a part swap and I ended up with this silver and black.
Planet Eclipse has released their latest gun, the 180R, the follow-up to the 170R. Although the 180R is quite similar to the 170R, it has been tuned up and tweaked to make it more user-friendly. It launches in a hand-full of colors grey/blue, grey/green, grey/orange, black, and Pred camouflage.
The successor to the popular 170R marker and features one main improvement the, the OP-R Core drivetrain. The OP-R core, is an improved GammaCore with a lower operating pressure.
The Planet Eclipse CS3 is more air efficient than its predecessor, the CS2, with most users seeing between a 10% to 15% improvement. Some have reported up to a 25% but this is not the norm. The controversy stems from Planet Eclipse’s claim that the CS3 is 20% more air efficient, which is likely based on testing with a larger tank. While a 77 tank may technically achieve more shots, this is due to the tank simply being bigger. ability to stay cooler longer and provide better performance at a higher volume.
