You dont need any more upgrades for your 98 how much have you spent on it allready. No im bein serios this time i dont think you need a pistol that bad, but you 98 allready has enough bad stuff on it

PGP or the New zues, but finish upgrading your 98 first.

A couple of my buddies carry pistols. Innacuarate at long range sure, but just fine short range. And those things have saved their butts several times. Go for it. I reccomend a Zeus. Thats what they carry.

Ya'll are too harsh on these guns. You have to understand that while many things are not good for tournament play, there is a much wider world of paintball out there. Think scenarios for example. There are many many people who enjoy having these guns just to have them, and many many people actually use them in the field too. There is a crowd that appreciates some older designs.

Get the ACP by ariakon. Since all the ariakon markers are great, why should this be any different. Go to their website www.ariakon.com and check it out for yourself.

If you really need more accessories for your 98 Custom I would say do that first, because what's a backup sidearm without a decent primary gun?

However, if you want to go the other route, get a PGP. Forget the PTXtreme! Forget the Delta .68! The PGP will save you much more $$ and fustration. Plus, the PGP is more accurate and durable.

On the other hand, if you absolutely NEED a semi pistol, get the Zeus G2+! It costs around $125 but it is worth every cent. Whatever you decide to do, DO NOT settle for the PTXtreme or Delta .68!

Most importantly, I hope you make the right decision that you will later on benefit from! Happy 'ballin!

Well said WARMONGER83

I would save money for my Tippmann. Pistols are good in weight and size, but they are inaccurate (as said above), useless (as said above) only holds about 10 shots!!, needs a Co2 change way too often. are you looking for a backup gun? Well if u r, then get a gun besides a hand gun!!!!

Pistols are fun just because they're pistols. I'm a big advocate of the out of the ordinary armory.

the reason i dont think you should get a pistol is that they are largely useless in normal play. think about it, compaired to a normal marker, a pistol is inacurate, doesnt hold that many shots, and needs co2 changes too often. if you are looking for a backup gun, you might as well buy another 98
