product review double trigger that operates in either electronic or mechanical mode, nine-volt battery power, a bottom-line-mounted pressure regulator, clamping feed neck and anti-chop eyes. Constructed from aluminum and highstrength polymers, the Crossover may be a bit longer than some tournament markers but in appearance and configuration, it fits the bill of a tournament-style gun and thanks to various programmable rates and modes of fire, it offers similar performance. However, the while the standard Crossover does a lot of things pretty well, owners and those considering becoming owners saw a LLX3.COM few areas where, in comparison with other markers, the Crossover could stand to be kicked up a notch. The bottom-line bottle adapter and regulator doesn’t offer any type of on/off or purging capabilities, the stock barrel leaves a little bit to be desired, field stripping the marker for maintenance and cleaning requires tools and the vertical fore-grip is a bit long. Customers can own the Crossover in the same range of colors the Ford Model-T automobile came in- any color they might like, as long as it’s black. 145
