what are your opinions on this gun..i have my 98c as a starter gun and want to get a new one and been looking at this

and..this one website has it for 290$ http://paintballgateway.com/wgp20vefeaub.html - http://paintballgateway.com/wgp20vefeaub.html

and everywhere else they have it for 360$ at like actionvillage..how can that place afford to sell it for that much less

and what is the best nitro tank / pressure should i get for it

AVI is a massive company. They are the largest overall retailer of paintball products on-line I believe. So they can afford to sell some products to break even or sometimes take a loss in hopes that you will buy other items (squeegee, mask, hopper, tanks, etc) and they can make a profit. Sure, seems like they'd go under but when you get 10,000 orders in and make $1.79 off each of them...

As far as your gun, the '04 is probably the best stock Autococker yet. The tank...whatever size you prefer. I like a little 45ci myself, although 68ci and 88ci are the most common. Remember, if your field only fills up to 3000psi and that is all that is available to you, 4500psi is a waste of money.

As far as brands: Crossfire, Centerflag, ACI Bulldog II, PMI Pure Energy, and Nitro Duck make great, low-cost tanks. For an Autococker, high or low pressure will work, but I recomend high-pressure so that you can use the tank on a gun that does not run low-pressure.

@ paintballgateway.com they have the 3.5 cockers for 299, imo they are better looking then the 04 bodies...

3.5= 03 body w/ 04 pnoos

get the 3.5, much nicer better looking gun. its basically same performance parts so they perform about the same, but the 3.5 has a better barrel.

i also like matte anno better, and i hate the look of 04's
