    Posted: 07 January 2006 at 9:33pm

I'm looking into getting a gun for speedball. Right now I'm shooting a Tippmann 98c R/T, mainly geared for woods. Money will be a huge factor, as I am really pressed. my friend just got a synacate misfit off ebay for $100, and says it works really well for him.

I was looking at all the different electric spyders out there: the Fenix, The Rodeo, the Electra, ect. and I can't see that much of a difference between them. Can you offer any insight?

I alreday have a fast feeding hopper (Apache), so that won't be a problem. Also, I mainly run co2, and don't plan to invest in HPA for while now.

Any suggestions?

Electro you Tippmann, of buy a Kingman Product your choice. Any other speedball markers are not avilable to you because you cannot afford HPA.

yeah the 06 electra will be coming out with vision, but has an illegal rocking trigger. so I think the rest of their high end guns will come out with eyes

Get a spyder and your SCREWED. From personal experience the Fenix, Rodeo and Imagine are not good for speedball. Or anything else. Electro your Tippmann. I would suggest an ion but since you dont have HPA thats not a good idea.

 I hate to electro it, b/c I just put my RT on it. And an ebolt by itslef cost as much as a whole new gun.

What is your price range?

Dont get a spider!! if you dont want to electro your tippy then look into 32 degrees. The got the new icon z out now. There not the best guns but better than spyders. Still the best choice is too electro your tippy. Actualy the best choice is to get hpa and an ion or a wrath

Right now I'm going to stay with my Tippmann, but when I get some more cash I think I am either going to get an Ion or a Wrath.
