If it is your first gun, get a 98 custom. Also, get a c02 tank or two. 14oz's if you are smaller/like small, 20oz if you don't mind the weight.

Also look into a good mask. JT nvader's are good, as are vforce masks. Thermal = good.

Dragunov said it well. The 98c is a great beginner gun. Reliable, durable, affordable.

98c kit get it for 190 at www.paintballgear.com  or go onto eba and find a used gun there are so many on there
98% of ion owners think ions are better than any high end gun. If you would like to bonus ball these idiots put this in your sig.

Yep.

www.countypaintball.com

They have "BYOP" (Build your own package) Deal.

Any marker, any mask, and a Aditional Item and you save like $5. Also there are coupons you can use in thr "Shopping Cart" page.

·98 Custom PRO Basic - $159
·20oz C02 Tank -$20
·V-force Vantage Pro Mask - $33

BYOP Discount = $2.12
RC22 Coupon = $10

Total: 199.88


Now you have enough either to buy an Expansion Chamber kit, or a really good barrel.

I agree with everything except for the fact that Ion should be your next gun, it's a ton different from 98c.  I would get an A-5 after that unless you jsut fall in love with an Ion.  You should find a way to try both of them out and see what you like better.  And remember A-5 has 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 upgrades.

Why should he get an A-5? Its the same thing as a 98c. You have to move up every marker.
Hell, I want from tippy to mag to angel. No problems.

A5 NOW is better then the 98 Custom. Its the fact you get a built in Vertical adapter, and you can use the Cyclone, for well under $300.
