Ask yourself why change? What are you shooting currently? Is there anything wrong with it? Im sure it will shoot as well as most other high ends on the market, but do you need it....
Though if you have the cashmonies to spend then why not!

Just picked one up a week ago and i'll be using it this sunday at training so i'll let you know how things go with regards to how smooth it shoots and having owned a Luxe and three Droids which are some of the smoothest markers i have ever shot it's got a lot to prove as i'm a bit of a spoolvalve fan.
My overall impressions of the feel of the Demon are of a light but solid built marker and feels very good and natural in the hands and the size is comparable with the Droid or Luxe,triggers a bit light but doesn't really matter on the current ramp modes and is easy to rip and the gas through grip is a real bonus,the bolt assembly comes out very easy with just one full turn of the back cap.

First off I'm going to admit I'm slightly biased due to knowing the guys at vanguard very well and spending a lot of time with one of the guys behind the gun at of of the mills events last year, now in st. Tropes I shot frank cornells demon for a game and it was amazing so smooth felt great in my hands. Now what I will say about vanguard as awhole you need to be the techy sort to own one as whole the work really whole but due to them being a new marker they need little nags sorting out very now and again
I bought one a few weeks ago but I haven't had a chance to try it out on the field yet (because after buying it I couldn't afford to go to BoB and I can't do NvS either
), but I did take it down to my local site for a bit of a techy session and to get an overall feel for it.
I will admit I had high expectations......and it didn't disappoint It feels so comfortable and smooth to use, and it's so easy to maintain, you don't need to mess about with allen keys to get the bolt out, it simply unscrews by hand. But the highlight of the 'test run' was my mates reaction to the sound of it, I wanted to see what it was like with paint that's several months old on 25bps, I didn't get a single break but I did turn round to find my mate practically on the floor in a post-orgasmic state
