Is the gun tournament ready?
This is one of very few guns I would feel comfortable going into a tournament with straight out of the box. However – there are some features the serious tournament player should look at. These include: 1. Matched and Spiral Vented Barrel 2. Vertical OR Bottomline Stabilizer 3. Trigger Job AND/OR 2 Finger Trigger 4. HP/LP Valving (if you run Nitro) On the other hand – out of the box – this gun beats the 97 Autococker by far. I have personally attended two major tournaments with my Blazer and have never felt outgunned. My Blazer has a Matched and Spiral Vented Barrel, Remote, and trigger job. I don’t like the two finger trigger too much and I am short on cash for the vertical stabilizer (next thing I am buying). Still – the gun performed top notch.
