Have you considered the Ion?
What kind of paintball do you play?
What is your total budget, including accesories, air tank, etc?

dont go spending tons of money at first...start off basic with something customizable...but dont start customizing until you are sure that you want to continue playing

my friend bought a $400 autococker used it once and has not played since...now he just loans it to other people

98s are the most abundant marker (at least where i live).  the prices to get them repaired (if you can't do it yourself) are dirt cheap.  plus, they don't have any polymer like the a-5.  not that the polymer is not durable, but it's just not as durable as aluminum....  also, because of their popularity, alot of upgrades are available to suit your tastes....  i wish i would have gone with a 98 instead of my a-5.... but that's just my tastes....  A-5s are still great markers.

It's 2017 and I guess this thread should be updated with the new improved markers.
Try Tippmann 98 custom, Tippmann a5, Tippmann Cronus they all are super cool paintball markers.
I also found something interesting on this website also http://prospaintball.com/best-paintball-guns/ and they recently reviewed some new markers from Tippmann there too.
