I am a frontman. And whats a super low profile fast gun that is pretty light. Money isn't really an object but i'd like to deffinetely stay under 900.

look at a freestyle or a shocker.  both are extremely small guns and very fast.  go to ur field and try to borrow someones shocker but i doubt youll find a freestyle - icd isnt as widely used as sp.  Really tho any $900 gun will work fine.

I love mine. They can be air hogs on fact settings. Get the he bolt and you'll be good. Don't bother with the inline maxflow. The maxflow vert. is dead on. Vision is a must,even if you have to hurt yourself to get it . It will cost you big bucks to add on later if you don't. I have been in touch with SP to check on the new settings they are using and they have always been excellent.

The only guns that offer an advantage as far as length and size is the Shocker and the Automag. Both are very short, the bodies are around 8" long I believe, and are "single-tube" so are not tall guns. Put a low-rise and run a 45/4500 tank and you have the smallest marker out there. You could add a drop but that will add height.

The thing about the Shocker is gas efficiency. But as a front man, it shouldn't matter, you won't be shooting often and you can just get all-day air anyway or the new bolt kit which runs a fairly steap $100.00.

I prefer the Automag. ULE Body, Level 10 Bolt, and a Intelliframe, it's about as fast and light as a Shocker, won't break paint like a Shocker and eye (saying that like a Shocker and eye, it will not break paint), and I feel, from personal experiances, the customer service is better.

Edit- Cost is about the same. Vision Shockers run $800.00. An Automag stock runs $300.00, Intelliframes can be had for $150.00 or less, Level 10, $80.00, and a ULE Body, $120.00, so a total of $650.00 for high-end preformance? From there, you can add a barrel of your choice, like a Sceptor Kit for $150.00 I think. Something you don't get with the Vision Shocker.
