The Lightning has been recently discontinued and 40 Max - AIM will not assist with a minor firmware issue.
I cannot recommend a blaster (or company tbh) that will not provide firmware updates for well described problems less than three months after purchase and tells me I should spend more money on something else.
Hi Toni, we're sorry to hear about your experience. We understand your frustration with the support and firmware issues. Thank you for sharing your feedback, and we appreciate your honesty. We have reviewed our emails and cannot locate any communication regarding this issue. Please reach out so that we can take care of you. OOD still is supporting the Lightning and does not want to be confused with AIT customer service. If there's anything we can do to assist further, please let us know.

Very disappointing amazing pistol would love to order one for myself and one for my son, but cannot be delivered to Canada. Very very disappointing.
Hi Marc,
Thank you for the review, and we completely understand your disappointment. We would absolutely love to ship the AIT Lightning to you and your son, but unfortunately, Canadian customs regulations are extremely strict regarding items that resemble firearms. Because these blasters risk being rejected or confiscated at the border, we are unable to ship them to Canada.
We sincerely apologize for the frustration this causes, and we appreciate your understanding of these international shipping limitations. If you have any questions about other items that can safely clear customs, please don't hesitate to reach out to our team!
I LOVE IT. ITS SCARY POWERFUL ITS GREAT.
very nice
