The GOG eXTCy is a fantastic value, coming in at a low price (see lowest price). It fires accurate shots with excellent speed, has a unique feedneck position, feels perfect and flat out looks cool. This marker is available in a multitude of colors and each has a high quality finish.

When you open up your GOG eXTCy box, you’ll find more than just the marker itself. There’s a nice looking and highly functional GOG carrying case, an instructional CD, an allen key set, a barrel stock and a spare parts kit. The carrying case is especially nice because it is small enough to transport with ease and contains detachable eye covers.

NOTE TO READER: The GOG eXTCy paintball marker has been discontinued. However, for an even more affordable price, you can still find them on eBay, which has been reflected by an updated link below. Furthermore, the new line of GOG paintball marker is known as the GOG eNMEy, which performs just as well as the discontinued model and looks nearly identical, albeit with a higher price tag. If you are still interested in purchasing a used GOG eXTCy paintball marker because you are on a tight budget, feel free to read the following review to learn all about it. If you need further assistance, you can visit the GOG website, which offers manuals, support, accessories and replacement parts should you need them. You can even contact GOG if you have questions.

Nevertheless, this paintball marker is still  a steal considering its capabilities, light weight and accuracy in the field of play. You can still get hours of enjoyment running and gunning with it, all while proving to your friends that new and expensive doesn’t mean victory. If you need a reliable paintball marker for a low price or even as a backup to your primary marker, you can’t go wrong with the GOG eXTCy.

The GOG eXTCy Design

While the GOG eXTCy looks fairly diminutive at first glance, its performance outmatches its moderate size. The marker’s body is made of metallic aluminum and it feels quite durable. It is built with a Max-Flow R vertical regulator that modifies how much pressure goes into the marker. The regulator never fails to provide accurate and reliable chronograph readings. The GOG eXTCy also has standard Anti Chop eyes to prevent chopping paintballs. The result is less time spent cleaning the marker and more time having fun in the thick of battle.

The barrel fairly short yet the two long handles with fully clasped grips allow ballers to establish and maintain a firm control of the marker no matter what type of playing scenarios arise. It really feels naturally when it’s in your hands. When you feel right holding your marker, you tend to have fun and that’s why we all started playing paintball in the first place. While it sounds a bit cheesy, the GOG eXTCy marker embodies the spirit of the game. The marker has a Q-lock Clamping feedneck, operates with either HPA or CO2 and is incredibly light even when loaded up with a stocked 4500 PSI loader. The GOG eXTCy’s superior user experience design is enough to justify the $250.

The GOG eXTCy’s Shooting Performance

When you take your first shots with the GOG eXTCy, you’ll notice that the marker and stock barrel feel very light and balanced compared to other paintball guns. Their steadiness really helps you rattle off shots with excellent accuracy. The pin mounted wave trigger is made of plastic and adjustable to 3 points, a severe deviation from the marker’s sister gun in the GOG eNVy. The eNVy has a straight line trigger. Each of the eXTCy’s firing modes works without a hitch and you’ll pop off shots at 17-20+ bps. Adjustable modes include 3 shot burst, semi automatic, fully automatic, BillyBall and PSP. There’s enough room for three of your fingers to fit into the gap and caress the trigger.

A pet peeve of most paintball players is a marker’s kickback. You’ll be happy to know that the GOG eXTCy has almost none and sometimes you’ll actually experience no kick at all. Of particular note is the marker’s lack of noise. When you’re firing off shots at a rapid pace you’ll hardly make a peep. It really is a stealthy marker so it has that cool factor that plenty of competing guns lack. You can use the eXTCy in your backyard, during practices or even in long lasting competitive tournaments and it’ll deliver the same consistent performance with virtually no backlash after trigger pulls. There’s no doubt that you’ll be pleased with this marker’s overall shooting performance. You’ll be hard pressed to find a marker this affordable that fires with a similar efficiency, comfort and consistency.

GOG eXTCy Maintenance And Care

Paintball experts will testify that the GOG eXTCy really offers a lot for the few hundred dollars that it costs. It is very simple to assemble and operate. When you initially unlock the board and set it up, it takes less than 10 minutes to get it ready for action. When you need to disassemble the gun to apply lube or make other alterations, it will only take a couple of minutes thanks to its friendly Bolt Out Back Design. If you need to clean the eyes, don’t fret. The eXTCy’s covers can be quickly removed.

GOG eXTCy Add Ons

You can customize the GOG eXTCy in a number of ways so there’s room to grow as your interest in the sport blossoms and your skill level ramps upwards. Once the stock barrel wears out, you’ll have a myriad of compatible options to choose from. Consider adding on a firebolt/17 bolt and a QEV to boost the marker’s speed. These additions can nearly double its efficiency.

GOG eXTCy Criticisms

For the most part, the GOG eXTCY will appeal to intermediate players. While the marker doesn’t provide the most accurate shot in the world, many pros still use it. In terms of cons, there aren’t many to speak of. Some players have complained that the marker’s S trigger isn’t as comfortable as the GOG eNVy’s straight line style trigger. High level tournament players tend to favor the straight line trigger. It is quite difficult to come up with any other slights for this marker. Some might prefer a gun that is larger and a bit longer but most will be content with the eXTCy’s compact size.

Conclusion

The GOG eXTCy should last at least a million shots or 5 years without any breakdowns. It comes with a 9V battery that will likely endure through around 25,000 shots. It is well worth the bargain basement price.  The bottom line is that this is a fun marker to shoot no matter what type of paintball environment you play in. You won’t be disappointed with the GOG eXTCy.
