    Oh great... These things are multiplying.

    I didn't know about this clone, only the snake named one and the HK version looks like we have another.

      Wtf. It's a sabr

      Factory second? Leftover supply or did HK buy the design that already existed?

      Have to love the translation phrases on the back

      Not a SABR. Milling is totally different.
      This one is a rebranded Eagle Claw, though all of these guns are made by the same OEM.

        How I read this:
        "This one is a rebranded pile of cow dung, whereas the one you're referencing is a rebranded pile of horse dung. Made at the same farm, though."

          In fairness, the SABR has a number of thoughtful improvements over the original Eagle Claw, like the autococker threading, quick-strip bolt, dual detents, etc., and the milling is fairly distinctive.

          It would be interesting to know whether the Oriiiiiion corrects the misplaced bolt exhaust port that makes the Eagle Claw and SABR so bad but I wouldn't count on it.

            I had no idea that that was even an issue. How do you mess up the valve exhaust port alignment? 🤦‍♂️

            I have a serious soft spot for blowbacks. I love my Tippmanns, my F2 Illustrator, and my few nicely upgraded and tuned Spyders (plus a few magfed variants). But this garbage is why they get such a bad rep, and I'm bitter about it. Lol
