The brand new Planet Eclipse Geo R5 is HERE! After quite a bit of suspicion on a new marker coming from Planet Eclipse, Planet Eclipse has released information regarding the new Geo R5. After receiving our first few batches on Planet Eclipse Geo R5's, we are CONVINCED that this is the best Geo that Planet Eclipse has ever made!

While the Geo 4 was an upgraded version of the previous model (the Planet Eclipse Cs1 and CS1.5), there were certain things that made the Geo 4 inferior compared to the newer Planet Eclipse LV2 and Planet Eclipse CS3. It has been years since we saw the Geo 4 hit the market and there was a lot of anticipation for the new Geo platform gun. With that said, Planet Eclipse has improved many things with the Geo R5 including the packaging, efficiency, shot quality, & more!
As you can see above, the packaging of the Geo R5 is a vast improvement from the older style aluminum hard case of the Geo 4 and older models. The Geo R5 packaging is basically the same as the CS3 and LV2 case. It offers the new fabric marker case which does not dent as compared to the previous cases. The new fabric marker case also offers a soft-close carry handle and EVA padded protection on the inside to ensure the Geo R5 is safe. When you open the Geo R5 case, you now have more storage opportunities for the PWR inserts as well as a middle divider which is held in place by an elastic band so it does not flop and allow the S63 barrel to fall out. The divider also has mesh pocket organizers which is a good place for the manual, extra triggers, barrel cover, & more. The new case is one of our favorite cases across all high end paintball markers we carry here at Punisher's Paintball!
The Geo has always been the smoother shooting Planet Eclipse markers. With the introduction of the IV core bolt system as an upgrade to the Geo 3.1 and a stock bolt with the Geo 3.5, the Geo got a major boost in shot quality, reliability and efficiency. The IV core had been a flagship feature of the Geo platform of guns including the CS1 platform which debuted around 2015. With that said, Planet Eclipse has now updated the IV core and offers the ALL NEW GR drivetrain in the Geo R5. The GR drivetrain bolt system is noticeably different compared to the Geo 4 IV core or other previous IV core bolt systems. The GR drivetrain is significantly smoother than the IV core of the Geo 4 or previous Geo's. Not only is it smoother, but the new Geo R5 uses breech sensing technology to be very efficient getting around 1600-1700 shots from a Ninja SL2 77/4500 as independently tested by Punisher's Paintball. 
Another nice feature of the Geo R5 is the new MME OLED Board that was first introduced in the Planet Eclipse LV2 and CS3. This new board is higher resolution and contrast compared to previous Geo markers. It also offers more tunability and even has an LED light to indicate the status of your marker in direct sunlight when viewing the OLED board may be difficult! 
Another new feature of the Geo R5 is the new foregrip which replaces the need for body eye covers. The new foregrip conceals the eye covers underneath the grip. The foregrip is also unique in that it comes up much higher on the body of the gun compared to the Gtek 180R, Geo 4, or CS3. This allows for a more streamlined aesthetic. It also serves as a functional ergonomic improvement for those players who hold their marker high on the foregrip and wrap their thumb around the barrel. The Geo R5 eyes use the new style light-pipe system which uses an infrared (IR) beam in place of the older style eye cable breech sensor system of the Geo 4. The IR beam comes from the breech sensor on the board of the trigger frame and reflects off the light pipe through the breech of the marker. The light pipe system is very easy to clean by simply wiping off the lightpipe.
