...Around $100-$300 and looking for suggestions.  I'm looking at the A5, but if you think you know better, please post.  I like woodsball the most, and occasionally I play speedball, but I don't like it as much.

Thanks in advance!

With $300 you could buy an WGP 03 vert. That would be a good gun in the woods, and it would be equally as nice on the speedball field.

Piranha evo. Cheap gun. It has an eye. Its electro. You can get like 15 bps stock off of it. If not more, thats faster then a stock autococker. The only problems are the stock regulator(buy a new one) The kick of the gun (buy a new bolt) and you have to recharge a battery (who cares).

The gun is like a 1000 dollar guns just smaller with cheaper parts.

And pmi is the owner of it. Which is a company in the usa. And they have nice customer service.

You should deffinetely look into the gun.

Ugh. I hate people. Buy the A-5, buy a 98 and put some crap on it,
buy an 03' vert, buy the fish, it really doesn't matter that much in
that price range. If it were me, I'd get an A-5.

How come?  I'm looking for someting ultra customizeable, durable, from people who won't charge you for a mechanical failure to fix, I want it to shoot fast, don't want an 'eye' (I use black capsule paint), and can snipe with a distance advntage. (flatline doesn't work on other guns, as far as I know)  Tell me one good reason not to get the A5.  A good reason.

why do u constantly flame Autocockers? Its actually getting really annoying. Everytime someone asks what gun to get you always say "no dont get an autochopper." I want to ask have you ever even shot an autococker before? Do you no how to time one, cause i dont think you do because if you did you wouldnt call them autochoppers. So next time someone asks what gun to get dont say dont get an autochopper just cause you dont know how to work on one.

I dont' know how well the dragun the one works, but I do have experience with the tes and it has been nothing but problems.  One of my local stores won't even carry them anymore because their supplier refuses to have anything to do with dragun. 

 Also, I attempted to call them multiple times and couldn't get through and I tried e-mailing them multiple times and recieved no response.  All I wanted was some stinkin replacement stock grips. 

The dealer which does carry dragun markers cannot replace my grips for me because dragun will supply them for the store to sell.  Anyways, that's been my experience with them.

I'm planning on getting an evo myself.  I've heard good things about them.  They have a variety of upgrades and, as I understand it, their reliable and their customer service department rocks.  So, I say either the evo or an A-5.  I say you can't go wrong with either of them.

Umm, isn't the evo the smart parts evolution autococker?  The $1,500 one?
