me and a few of my friends are gettin a speedball team together and i need a new gun cause the gun that i have now isnt reliable and is kinda built for senario stuff. ive narrowed my choices down to a maongoose reincarnation II (led or lcd which ever shoots faster) or a silver bullet if yall paintballas have any sugestions of a good gun in the price range of 200$ then please let me no

A GOOD speedball gun in the $200 range? You won't really find much... Realistically, you're looking at a Spyder with some upgrades on it.

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAA, NO!!!!!!!! Whatever you do, don't get a Spyder. Even the high-end Spyders like the Fenix ACS is awful. The thing is practically a paint flame-thrower. I used marbs and heat paint and it won't even get out the barrel. I would recommend you save up a little and get an Ion, or you can get the original Mongoose. The original Mongoose LCD is better than the Reincarnation, it has 7 more BPS on it, and a better stock barrel.

I have used tons of different guns for speedball, from my prolite, to a talon pump, to a 98c, spyder imagine, DM4, and my pimp, and I would say some of my favorites were my mech autococker and my pimp. You could pick up an oldish cocker within your price range, but be aware that it won't make you any better of a player. If you suck, a new gun won't make you suck less, unless it makes you feel more confident or something. An Espyder would be a fine choice, actually...anyone who says theirs breaks paint or whatever is using a) way too nice [brittle] of paint b) needs a faster hopper or c) just doesn't take care of their stuff, with rare exceptions. Buy a bloody stick squeegee and take it in with you if you're worried about chopping.

s'right, I do a webcomic and I update it like every two months. go go!
