Planet Eclipse GEO R5 Paintball Marker Review & Players First Thoughts Shooting Video | BFPGear.com

Pick up the Planet Eclipse GEO R5 right here - bit.ly/4b6NExt
Planet Eclipse has created the ultimate in spool valve technology; the GEO R5. Building off of the robust IV Core that was found in the Geo 3 line, and the Geo 4, the Geo R5 updates this engine heavily. With the new GR drivetrain, the Geo R5 operates anywhere between 95-105psi, making it the lowest operating pressure in the Geo family.
With this larger air volume chamber and longer prop shaft, the bolt cycle can be controlled more, and doesn't lose as much air during this cycle. These factors come together and create the smoothest, softest, quietest, and most consistent shot.
Planet Eclipse was kind enough to send us one to test, and we found the perfect folks to test this badass paintball marker out. Sacramento Pink played with the Geo R5 over the period of a weekend and had nothing but great things to say about it. Hear what they have to say at the end of the video!

That is definitely one of the best looking Planet Eclipse guns they've ever made never been a huge fan of how Planet Eclipse guns looked especially back in the day this gun looks nice and clean I like some of the new features just might add this to my first planet eclipse Gun I've owned back in the day when I played I was always a bob long fan

[@BFPGear]

If the GEO R5 is your first Planet Eclipse marker, you will not be disappointed.

[@weroliera]

Never worried about the flow restrictior going missing but not having to clean it cause it is hidden now is absolutely genius and welcomed change.

[@BFPGear]

YES! Planet Eclipse addressing all of these little issues that are uncommon, and fixing them with their new Geo is fantastic.

[@dehydratedwat3r]

bruh you can literally guess word for word what every person who shoots any new gun is going to say "so smooth shoots amazing omg". no one will ever say anything that doesnt follow what the person before them said other than that, nice vid!

[@BFPGear]

That may be true, but the GEO R5 is incredible. If you get the chance to shoot one, DO IT!

[@bigdaddyreg]

Dear BFP Gear, my money is not safe from you lol.

[@BFPGear]

That's why you get showered in extra stickers.

[@FloridaBikeVlogger]

wait, so these Geo5's have problems with the SpireV and CTRL2!?

[@BFPGear]

Some of them do. We've been using this Geo R5 with the CTRL2 loader and have had zero issues.

[@WundorfallGaming]

What colorway is that, and is BFP going to offer color swaps?

[@BFPGear]

This is the Retribution color way (Bronze / Sandstone) and we're figuring that out. It does depend on how readily available the markers are for part swaps since it does take two different markers to make one. Keep an eye on the site!

[@clementsheen]

How smooth and quiet is it compared to DSR+ with IM prokit and FF bolt?

[@BFPGear]

I personally couldn't tell you, but Dufort says it's smoother and quieter than the GEO R5. - Sam

[@Zander13Productions]

better than cs3?

[@BeeSQB]

remarkably

[@weroliera]

Hell yes. It doesn’t sound like crap. Is a swooshy smooth airy shit instead of a pop pop crack sound.

[@BFPGear]

I think the comparison is like apples to oranges. The CS3 uses the OP Core and needs very little maintenance, but the GEO R5 uses the GR Drivetrain and has this insanely smooth and soft shot. Sure, the GR Drivetrain needs a little more care and love, but it's incredibly consistent.

[@axledog7297]

@@BFPGear If you're unaware, the OP is a Gamma and the GR is an IV. Thus, the old "Gamma vs IV" arguments all hold up here, as well.

[@AZjesse1]

@@weroliera the cs3 sounds so good I have no idea where your getting this idea that the cs3 sounds like crap.

[@TINO0GUTIERREZ]

What would be the best paintball marker right now for under 800$??

[@BFPGear]

In the current market, the Etha 3. If you save a little more cash, then I'd say the GTEK 180R.
