Arent you the one with the Droid?

Get something you are familier with. Epics are kinda rare. If it goes down
too, or sits for non-use, you will have a problem. No one will have stuff for
them.

Get something that everyone understands, or something where parts are
everywhere. Heck, the best backup would be another one of your main
gun. But if you do have a Droid, and I think you are the person with one,
that would be expensive, then again Droids are so great they don't need
backups.

Actually, Epics are still in production. ICE is basically a one-man show, but they're still supported.

No experience with one though.

when I saw backup I really just mean something Id use occasionally, im kind of a gunwhore, Ive got a Droid, G3, jeff orr series 1 cocker, phantom(couple different setups, vsc sc right feed body, bucket changer and 3.5 oz) an alpha black( i won it and its a great loner for woodsball) and Im looking to get a nother just because I like to try new things, plus its a mech that is supposed to shoot fairly quickly.

My Dad is very good with mechanical devices and has been our main tech for our team, hes helped fix pretty much every marker even if hes had no experience, and I help wiht maintenance as well and can take apart and fix all my markers by my self.

Well, you don't need a backup, you just need a reason to keep
gunwhoring. If you want to try it, get it.
