Custom Pro

I bought my son a Custom Pro. We have played twice in the past month, now I am hooked! Is the Custom Pro a good choice? What are some of the better upgrades for the marker? 

The Custom Pro is the blingin shiz nizzle.

It doesn't cost $800, and it might not shoot 30 balls in a second, but it is a very worthy and upgradable gun.

When you're upgrading, consider what do you want to accomplish with this upgrade.
If you need to lay down more paint (like a tournament situation), think about getting a rate of fire upgrade like the E-trigger or E-bolt.   The  R/T is also good for woods play, but most fields don't allow it.

When you start shootin faster though, your stock hopper is not gonna cut it. You'll need something electronic that can push the balls faster.

However, once you're shooting fast and not chopping paint, you'll also want a consistent air setup for accuracy and so you can shoot long strings without velocity drop-off. This can be accomplished with anti-siphon tubes and expansion chambers with CO2, or you can get a HPA tank, which is just compressed air, no liquid.

Also a better barrel would be a good upgrade, although I don't know how the stock one is on the Custom Pro.

There are also simple preference ups like a double trigger, a drop-forward, etc.

A good first upgrade would be a barrel, or a HPA tank (if you have a nearby field that can fill it and a wallet that can take it....). A 68cu / 4500 PSI tank is comparable to a 20oz CO2 tank (by # of shots).
