Any REAL baller has all three. I think you should go out now and demand your parents buy you all of them. Also, you HAVE to have a DM8 as well as 2-3 pumps and some others. Otherwise you just aren't a player. You may want to post up a couple more polls asking which other electros are good as well as a pump poll. Oh, and you can't forget to post a "which barrel is best?" poll, as well as a Poll asking about "apex vs flatline". The last couple of polls would be R/T vs E-grip and the venerable HPA vs CO2.

Ohh.. And I almost forgot, you need to post a poll asking how to be a sniper.

or you could use the search button and see that all of these including basically the one you posted has been beaten into the ground.

Welcome to the forum.

What, so everyone else gets to take whacks but me? Perhaps it's a bit harsh, but I think at the time this was sitting at the top of the forum, there were no less than two others posts on the same page with basically the same thing. I may be relatively new, but from the beginning, I have known how to use the search button and try to find the info on my own before posting.

I have to agree though. Hasn't that and so many other mundane questions/polls been posted when one could simply search? I try not to respond unless they're in dire need of a life raft. Some of you can be quite brutal. ^^^ ^^^ But I do have to agree with oldp, it can be annoying sometimes.

You know it's going to be the same thing, but open it and flame anyway?

The sure sign of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and then
expecting a different result ...

Roll your eyes, move along and hit a worthy thread, if these don't suite.

The best part is that 9 times out of 10 the lippy ones on the 'net would be
scared crapless to say the same thing in person
If I attack, follow me

If I flee, kill me

If I die, avenge me

Yeah, doesn't apply to me. Not many things I am scared of in person.

I'll keep this thread in mind the next 100 times I see Snake or one of the others that flame and never get admonished.

besides looks & the cyclone, they are all the same gun...  Why do you need to own all 3.  If you do own all 3, you own 3 entry level paintball guns.  I'm voting for the BT TM-7.  Awesome MP-7 replica with the high-tech internals of a speed ball gun.  I'm sick of blow-backs.

Dude, they're only entry level if you NEVER mod them and as far as I'm concerned, that's what a tippy's for, MODIFICATION! Who keeps a stock tippy anymore, unless it has "RENTAL" stamped to the side of it? Lol. I'll agree though, that TM7 is one mean mutha, but don't go thinking it shames a TIPPMANN. It's the new kid on the block, the pretty boy. TIPPMANN'S already made their bones man and dominate the scenario world, you kidding?

Besides a recent cup seal failure, my stock pro/carbine works better than my 98C.  My 98C has over 500 bucks in mods added to it throughout the years; R/T, Flatline w/metal shroud (as well as 3 different straight barrels for different situations), Cyclone Feed w/ vortex kit, squishy paddles, quick exhaust piston housing, lightning rod, Palmer's Stabilizer, adjustable stock, remote line, low profile hopper...

I'm sick of upgrades, partially because they never really improve as much as they say they are going to.

I want a gun that does not need upgrades.  The Pro/Carbine was the last of the great Tippmann guns.
