I've had my Cronus since I was in middle school and I'm in college right now. It still shoots amazingly well and it was extremely easy and worthwhile to modify! :)
We got a sabr in at our field and test fired it, louder than fuck, broke 10 of 600 balls, double fed 16, and the backpressure into the hopper was ridiculous. If it’s your thing go for it, but I wouldn’t suggest it
Good comparison between both. If I had to choose it would be the sabr, easy to clean and work on and autococker threaded , is huge since most markers are autococker threaded
@@reedwetzel1324 no you haven't. Stop confusing beginners like me. The SABR missed everytime. Can't say that for spyder or chronus. Much better accuracy. I think you just bought sabr and you're trying to convince us of your bad buy
Bought both of these this weekend to get my wife and daughter into paintball and got to play a game with both. The Sabr is the worst gun i've ever played with. So inconsistant. Tried different barrels including a Freak kit and just no. Couldnt hit a barn door 20 fee away. Thinking the Cronus was a better buy, I played a game with that and couldnt get fps above 250. If the velocoty screw was turned out any further it would just burp and fart. Tried a different brand air bottle (Tippmann) incase it didnt like the Ninja valve on the other and no difference. Buy an Azodin or Spyder. These both suck.
back in my day (i'm just getting back into paintball after a 20 year hiatus) we had to run high-pressure systems to get stuff to work properly. perhaps that's the issue? i know my tanks these days i've got set to 450psi but there's no way my old mag would've run on that.
@@thegrafxguy1 That was my thoughts and so bought a Tippmann bottle. Was also returning after a ten year hiatus- dug out my old 68 pro-cabine. Oil, then 290,290,291,289,285,290. That thing is still awesome :)
WOW, yeah that's old school. I now also have a GTEK 170R and I think the Chronus has it's moments (i modified it so I can use a barrel kit)@@Synthetic-Rabbit
Yeah it's an old workhorse I def upgraded a lot of stuff in it when I was really into paintball all those years ago. Me and some friends have been getting back into playing even though we're all in our 30's now lol but it's still a lot of fun and the marker still works great. @@itsjustcaz
Yeah i would rather play with rentals for a Sumer longer and get the emek than get my own marker now and it be a sabr. Emek far greater marker plus you can evolve with the emek and upgrade parts. The sabr like they said you can only really do a barrel
They really really are. I've had my Cronus since I was in middle school and I'm in college now. I've also modified my Cronus extensively to suit my needs and it's SOO good! :)
I've created a custom wood stock for mine, upgraded the barrel, inserted a Nerf Nitefinder trigger spring to replace the factory trigger spring, upgraded the o-rings, removed the rubber tip on the bolt, got rid of all the side tactical rails to reduce the weight slightly and finally I added an ergo grip by Trinity paintball. :)
