^Nah... I think I'm under a certin contract(Semi-sponsor) where I'm only allowed to show up to Tournments with Tippmann guns or somthing...   I would buy like a Timmy but It would be a Waste for me not to use it in a tournment.

well thats cool.  i mean im sure you eventually could get just as good with a tippy as a like timmy or something, but would take longer.  why dont you like discuss all the fine print with him and see if you can change some stuff?

That sucks dude.  Also I respect your opionon that you don't like cockers, because you dont constally flame them.  If you can get a new gun a timmy would be a nice choice.

I am confused... If a sponsor wanted me to use only a tippmann, i would deffinately want to renegotiate. Tell him that you dont want to be bound to use a certain kind of gun, then buy your timmy/trix/anything and play with it.

You coluld always tell him that your play is being effected by lack of good equipment, but then if you still suck, oh well...

^ i got my money back.... I'm never trusting SmartFart Guns agian...  

Well if I move up to Amature 'A' in the next little while then my sponsor will buy me the gun of my choice as long as its 700$ or less...(not sure if I can move up and do good in the next little while)  but with all the money I got from Returning my Impy, I may just buy a Freestyle or like a Superstock with some upgrades...

but I highly doubt ill move up in the next little while.

For a freestyle, well, i dont even have to say wha ti think you should get.

 

oh well, i'll say it anyway. viking. Although i have never actually shot a freestyle, and i would like too, I think i can still safely recomend this over the freeatyle.
