Phantom revolution

[Flying_anchors]

I have the opportunity to buy a phantom revolution and I’m wondering what problems they had that made them so bad. Or where they just costly?

Rollouts. Due to lack of Detents. Other then that they can be a lil more finicky then the Basic Phantom but are great shooters.

Lot of guys drill them for cocker detents.

Drill it for detents, keep it lubed, you’ll be fine.

I had one. Here are my complaints:
1) It is loud. When dry firing, it's extra loud. I haven't found a situation where this would've been helpful besides pulling up behind a friend on the field and scaring the crap out of them.
2) Must have a detent system. Mine was drilled to use autococker detents. This kept it from getting double feeds. I used a sizer that came with the Revolution to prevent roll-outs.
3) Required more work than a Phantom. This is what caused me to let mine go. There are more parts and more places for things to need attention. Cassady stopped producing them because it wasn't better than a Phantom like most hoped it would be.

The one I used had trouble getting to velocity and had terrible consistency issue ... One shot to the next ranged from ~190fps all the way to ~240fps ...
we got it shooting at ~260 but that's as high as we could go ... No spare spring on hand to try something else.

velocity adjustment is a bit of a chore. adding or removing O-Rings to the power piston gets you ballpark, with fine tune adjustment on the velocity wheel. Pretty much set and forget after that as long as you don’t swap between air sources

I had been looking for one for a while until I heard they were so loud. I like guns quiet. That said, I think they're relatively rare, so there might be value in knowing where one is.

If you don't mind my asking, what do they go for now?
