This article describes the differences between a b2k and a bko writtin by p8ntbala8900 from ********.com

Well guys here's another importent frequently askeed question I found from another forum and Decided to let you guys here know about it as u can see it says labelskate did it he also did the other one

THIS ARTICLE IS FOR THE NEWEST VERSIONS OF BOTH MODELS (2K3)

Ok I got really bored in Science class today and decided to write this article in my notebook then type it up at PbF since so many people ask the same questions.


The main difference between the two markers is that the BKO has a 2 way solenoid and the B2K has a 4 way solenoid. 2 way noid means that a spring returns the ram instead of the noid doing all the motion like on the 4 way noid. This means that the 2 way noid can't cycle as fast as teh 4 way noid. The BKO's 2 way can not cycle any faster then 17bps. The b2k can cycle much faster then that. (Although when will you use 17+bps in a game is beyond me)

The BKO board is capped at somewhere from 18-20 bps. Not many people are sure of the excat amount since it can't cycle that fast. Alex (paintballer200) said he called up ICD and asked this question and they said 20bps is the newest cap.

The B2K board is capped at 33.3bps. That is a Huge step up from the older b2k's cap of 13.15bps. (that is teh fastest dip switch combo known, all offs)

Other smaller difference's is the BKO's low pressure reg is located behind the inline reg. It is a lot easier to adjust then the B2K reg since it actually uses a allen wrench to adjust it, unlike a straight head screw driver used to adjust the B2K's.

The low pressure reg on the B2K is located under the barrel, and is a pain in the *** to adjust, why ICD hasnt changed it to a allen wrench adjustment found on the BKO is beyond me.

The B2K's milling is way nicer and looks really good, all the BKO has for milling is a little piece of the back cut off at an angle.

You can add PDS (paintball detection system) to the B2K STOCK for only about 70$ more. If you want PDS for your BKO you have to send it into ICD and it will be a lot more then 70. I also heard that Goldie at Vaporworks will do it for 100$ (don't quote me on this). PDS is a huge step up from all the other ace's of the past for bushmasters.

Thank you for reading this, I hope this answered some of your questions.
