Looks better than that brown barrel you had on there that looked like a cylindrical turd.

1,000 rounds and a smartparts barrel for $10 is a good deal.

I'd say start playing a lot with that gun and get good, so when/if you get a higher end gun, you'll be very good/experienced.

You know, there's some guys I paintball with that do the same thing.  They buy a lot of cheap guns and whenever the next one breaks, they get another cheapy paintball gun.  They end up spending like $125 on bad paintball guns.  I'd just save up for a 98c and stick with that.  It'll last way longer than those other guns.  The Orion and Eradicator are horrible guns.  Just my $0.02.

You don't have to buy an electro, get a 98 custom.  Go to http://www.pbreviews.com to find fields in your area.  Oh and I'm all for starting noobs to play but your whining in this post makes you sound like a poor little hobo-orphan who moved to new hampshire.

I hope you have better luck with your paintball experience. Have a nice day!

Keep the orion.  Even though the barrel doesn't look like SP, switch the barrels and sell the eradicator back to someone else for $15.  They'll be getting a better deal than at Walmart and you'll have the field fee for where ever you go play.

Even though the orion is not a great gun, the first thing you need is some sort of electronic hopper so that at least you've always got a ball in the chamber.

I'd suggest an empire reloader off ebay for about $30.  Do Not get some 9volt constant agitation peice.

play on and welcome to the game.

Everybody needs a mech cocker. They are just so smooth and sexy; not like those 5 sec robo jobs.
