i dont no what to do, im gonna get a q-lock and a egg2 for my ion but the only way i can do that is by not going paintbaling this month, the only why i can keep going paintballing is if use the crappy vl 200 until ive eventually saved up for the q-lock and egg2. what should i do not go paintballing this month and have the q-lock and egg2 for next month or go paintballing this month with the vl 200 and eventually save up for the q-lock and egg2

Go paintballing, but get a job.

Definitely, go paintballing and save up for the upgrades.  Using a gravity feed hopper will force you to not just spray ropes of paint, rather it'll force you to take more precise shots, which will help you in the long run.  Chalk it up as precision firing practice.  That's one of the reasons I love Hopperball days.  It forces you to use a bit more tactics and use your paint wisely.

If it were me, I'd try to do both. Play, but just don't use a lot of paint, maybe half of what you use now. Then start saving the money you save buy not buying a lot of paint.
