Product Information:
My zippy little R15 Shorty is the talk of every course I go to, I\'ve had many people comment on it and say they\'ve been thinking about picking up one or a similar sized SBR. The performance of the gun is solid and the size factor is the main selling point for me. I\'m able to play in any scenario without exhausting myself carrying around a larger rifle and be limited by the form factor.

I was disappointed with the advertised FPS of 380-390. At my first field the Chrono showed right around 250 FPS, which is a huge difference. But during gameplay FPS is just a number and if you can hit your target then that\'s just a data point.

I do like the sound it makes, it\'s loud and with the MOSFET the rate of fire makes it pretty intimidating during a match. Other players commented that they know its me when they hear the Zion. So if your going for stealth, this isn\'t the gun unless you make some modifications to make it quieter.

I\'m going for a smaller form factor so if you\'re into furniture then this obviously doesn\'t have the rail space to fit everything. But a light/laser and an optic is no problem.

Battery compartment barely fits the suggested 11.1v Lipo and you will have to make sure your battery has a Deans connection. One battery has served me for an entire days match but your use may be different.

Pros:
Form factor
Snappy Trigger response
Nebula MOSFET
Integrated fore grip
Functional bolt catch
Style
Weight

Cons:
Smaller size Battery compartment
FPS
