Rubber based? i wonder how accurate that may be… that must be really light for trooping and such...Hyperfirm EE-3 - Rubber based
Sidewinder EE-3 - resin
Stormrider EE-3 - resin
Bronze Webley EE-3 - theres a for sale thread right now in the cargo hold.
These are the majority of the options
Hyperfirm will be likely be the lightest but they are not very accurate. Passable for sure, but if your looking for as accurate as you can get, stormrider, sidewinder, or MLS are the way to go.
I dont have one of Stormriders rubber EE-3's....yet,...lol... but i think they will be the best out there when it comes to accuracy in a rubber based blaster. I dont know how the weight would compare to hyperfirm though as they have some proprietary rubber/foam, supposedly, but i think Stormriders will be a great choice if he does more rubber ones.
Generally speaking i think Stormrider Sidewinder and MLS have comparable blasters. They all use real guns as the base. So the differences are very little visually. I think the barrel mounts are the biggest differences between them all, and even that isnt much.
Great thread and info!! Especially since I was considering a Hyperfirm.
I was trying to find a pic of one but i cant seem to find one.
By all means they still are very nice, and im not saying they are "bad" per say, they just could be more accurate. Only us Fettheads would notice those differences i mentioned. They are however, very light weight and durable.
That is incorrect Hyperfirm has updated this piece by purchasing the one that I offer (which was confirmed upon asking Lewis but I haven't receive any resolution from him) & using it on there molds without asking my permission. So this piece is more correct in my opinion. Per the attached photo from their website with a close up of the piece from my sales thread.square center stock greeblie is just a square with a mesh in it.
here's a picture of Stormrider's full rubber version. like F4R said, Mike's are very light.
