Go play in traffic, and never recommend a Trilogy again, they're crap. Get a Tippmann 98C, best thing for a newbie. |

if u want an electro, get the mongoose(sp) or Spyder Imagine 2004, but if u want a mech (which i suggest) then get the 98 c.... but the electros will shoot faster ...just to let u know.. |

Hmm...are you being sarcastic or something or are your serious? I have never shot or touched a Trilogy so I'm not saying you are wrong or anything, but looking at the price, I doubt that it's better than the 04 VF.... |

You think a triology is better than an 04? Ok now i have heard it all.  Can you put a new 3 way on a triology? no, New ram? no, new LPR? no, oh yah there cool cause they come with a single trigger that looks like a blade. Oh and good luck playing speedball with a gun that can hit like 5 bps, cause its not suitable for an Eblade.------------- *Team Compulsive* Sponsors *Won-Ago-Biking* *Curleys Waterfront* |

Ok lets see it comes with 3 barrel backs well that is if you get the pro, derlon bolt, the three way is real short and soon you will be able to send it to wgp and have them put a worrblade on it. The lpr is great and the ram is not needed to be changed since its mech.... abd to change the ram there is not point unless you were to get the worrblade conversion anyway which if you do then you would be able to change it anyway...... One more thing front players dont need amazing amounts of speed either..... only back men do really..... so yea a cocker going 7 bps is fine for a front player in speedbal.... ------------- Red Proto Matrix Black Check It Uni Mount |

ok u cant even compare the trilogy series cockers to an 04 vert feed b/c of the price difference. u can expect something that is almost 100$$ cheaper (i think) to be just as good or better than the more expensive product. WGP even admits that the trilogy series are beginner guns for newbies (not meant negatively) who just want to be able to say they have an autococker. some of the things that make autocockers great are taken out of te such asw trigger frames, new 3 ways etc. its like comparing a 98c to a timmy... as for ur question: if ur lookin into speedball then i dont think a 98c would be the best for u. spyder imagines r pretty flimsy in my experience and unreliable. the dragun TES is about 210 (i think) and they are good guns if u wanna go over the 145 price range. and front men do need more speed than the back men. the back men lay cover fire which does need to be fast but the front men up in the action need alot of speed too. id say it would be more important for a front man to ahve speed than a backman. do u actually play speedball or r u just speculating? ^^^none of that was meant to start a flame war but if ur gonna stick ur neck out and advocate a product be ready to defend it (which u did) and then if ppl dont like it then u cant get mad at them and start callin them idiots. what this sounds like to me is somebody that thinks the gun they own is the best gun ever made. while it may be good for u and suit ur purposes its not the best thing since sliced bread. i know alot of ppl who do this so dont get mad im just pointing it out to u so that in the future u will eb aware and it might prevent u from flaming ppl or getting flamed. ------------- Rockin' the Ironman Intimidator.

The new spyder imagine 04's arent bad for a cheap spyder...14bps i think its capped at, but it's still mostly crap. The 98c isnt a bad starter gun, but if you want something a little faster get the imagine |

Get the 98 custom. It's 140 bucks then just buy some upgrades for it afterwards. Particulary a new barrel first like a teardrop. ------------- TIPPMANN 98 CUSTOM 14" Progressive barrel 32* Black gel grips BT-16 Double trigger Pen Spring Mod X-core Expansion Chamber Vertical Adapter |
