SPECS:
-Talon/katana exclusive magwell
-all aluminium upgrades
-14″ .509 aluminum barrel
-Pro 26 Spring
-Third party bearing scar
The blaster performed great with all springs that I ordered (4kg-14kg) I would strongly recommend upgrading all performance parts to aluminum or acytal if you are going to run a k25 spring or stronger.
3D printed parts can feel a little sharp in some spots and could use some sanding so I would advise saving money and ordering a diy kit or wearing gloves. The U channel would rub a little when I would grip the handle so maybe sanding those edges would be good too.
Lastly, skip the carbon fibre wrap if you intend on swaping out your springs often.
All in all great blaster, great support if you have any issues, great shop!

Definitly love my first U-CaliBurn, running a Turf pro26, 18′ Barrell and Scar hitting over 225fps very accurate. Didn’t had a missalignement yet. Highly recommand the metal parts.

I love my U-Caliburn and with a k14 it hits like a truck! Excellent performance (hitting in the 350’s with a k14, brass barrel + ram, and worker gen 2’s) but cumbersome and a bit hard to prime (also because of the k14). If I used another spring like a k25, the prime weight would be perfectly fine. Occasionally, the ram and the barrel misalign when priming as well. If you do decide to gear your U-Caliburn to higher spring loads though (like a k14/k25 + k31), I highly recommend aluminum parts to add durability. If I ran my Caliburn with a regular PLA sear and a k14, I’d be a tiny bit nervous that the intense load on the sear causes it to break and the Caliburn to misfire.

Barrel and ram alignment off by 1-2mm. I don’t recommend U caliburn because we can’t really adjust the alignment much due to the U channels locking every parts into a fix place. After filing the priming bars and screw holes. I can only align horizontal but vertical alignment still off by 0.5mm. Buy a normal caliburn and add the options that helps in rigidity will be much better.

Yea, ram alignment is a known issue with the U Caliburn. I’ve found making sure the ramscrews are tightened down can help a ton. Also swapping to a machined base can also help the ram drooping problem since the printed bases can wear out.
