Dragun "the one", look on ebay. Go to sporting goods, then find paintball,after that type in dragun. Youl find "the one" somwhere on there...good luck, ill try to do a hyperlink..... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=16048&item=7122444075&rd=1 - http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=1 6048&item=7122444075&rd=1  This is actually the Dragun TES, the only difference is that it shoots 20bps instead of 30. But its still nice. If you want some more info on it pm me.

The simplest answer is to get a 98c, probable best answer also. It is cheap, and easily upgradeable if you want to upgrade it. It is fine right out of the box.

What's wrong  with having a gun that will only shoot 13 bps? Yes, I have one of those guns that shoot a lot more and I can tell you I am not a better player because of it.

I diddnt say it would make you better,well.....Alright you know what, you go play against or with a pro team with a tippmann and see what happends.I did that with the dogs a few weekends back, do you know how hard it is to out shoot and snapshoot with people who have timmys and freestyles and are shootin at you 15 bps and up!!!!!! The gun sure dosent make you better, but it will help alot  and you will NEVER have to worry about making the ROF better if you spend the extra 50 bucks like I said....ABV somtimes is good, who cares whatever you other people say(acurace-by volume)

I have owned many markers in my years of play and i alway go back to my tipp. 98c. it is a good entry marker. I have owned makers in the $700-800 range and yes they are nice markers with nice faded colors in them and some fancey gadets. it doesn't matter what the marker looks like or how much it was, as long is it is reliable and you know your marker. the 98c is very reliable and has a vartiy of upgrades, it may look dull but as soon as you can pop off of your friends off at 125+yards there not going to make fun of you. D I C Ks Sporting goods ( http://www.d i c kssportinggoods.com - www.d i c kssportinggoods.com ),take out the spaces, has a 98C starter package for 160 right now.      

good luck

No neither, but he said he wanted somthing that looked good, and that is decent. I mean that gun will probebly eliminate the problem of him saying," I want my gun to go faster,and he will prob only get 5bps a sec with a 98c cause the trigger is so hard to pull back To get above that.

 

Wow.......are you just saying that you need more then 13 bps to take a person out.

Or are you saying that you need a flashy show off gun to be a good player?

It can be done, but you would need to do some "serious modifications" to make it happen.

u think hes stupid? well its been done and mods can be done to your 98c to make it have higher rate of fire. in fact, if u wanna see it for your self, in the marker gallery a couple of days ago, there was video of a 98c with mods done to the ebolt shootin 19bps.
