yes... the bko or b2k4 would be the only real speedball gun in that price range.

For about 35 dollars more, you can get a B2k4 with PDS.  You also need HPA/N2 if you don't already have it.
The desire for polyester is just to powerful.

definitely go ahead and get the b2k w/pds.  I'm not sure exactly what improvements are being made for the b2k5, but i would wait around to see what they do to it.  I had a b2k4 without pds.  It was fast as shizit.  It broke paint every now and then but with pds, that will solve that problem.  I traded mine for an 05 Speed though

I'd skip the new gun route and buy used.

You could have a 2k2 LCD angel for the 450

I wanted to say get a cocker but guess not, I think you should get a B2K4 w/pds, but remember not getting a cocker will haunt you forever

Over on Angel Owners, there are several LCD's in this price range. Some of them are awful nice, too.

2k2 Angles are person? I see from your sig that you have a
revy. That wil probably be fine, An egg would be a better option
though, my friend has a 2k2 angel, and always outshot his revy
until he got his egg.

a RT Pro mag for 350! THey come with the x-valve which regulates very well (so u dont have to buy a regulator) Very durable and great quality (better than bko) ANd although its mechanical, it lets u shoot very fast (faster than the other mechs around 6-8 bps but not up to the electro speed of 12 plus walking)  This gun would be my number one choice, check em out at their website. I think its airgundesigns.com
Setup:
Tippmann98c
Silver Vein powdercoat
Palmer's male stab
Ported elbow
Double trigger with stop
Lapco bigshot
Trigger slop mod
ricochet ak

Do you have to run nitro with the BKO?

If not are the benifets the same as runnin nitro on a tippmann?
