| Get a 98c. They are cheap, reliable, easy to maintain, and you can get a lot of ups for them. You would also have about $100 bucks leftover to get some ups. |

if i were you before buying the 98 custom, i would look around and talk to other people who play to try and find an a-5 that someone might be selling, cuz i bought an a-5 with r/t for 200 then i sold it for $275 cuz i already have an a-5 with response trigger and with the 275 i got for it this is what i did to my gun http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/derek_lagasse/album?.dir=9b63&.src=ph&store=&prodid=&.done=http%3a//photos.yahoo.com/ph//my_photos - http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/derek_lagasse/album?.dir=9b63& amp;.src=ph&store=&prodid=&.done=http%3a//photos .yahoo.com/ph//my_photos |

I don;t care how many people say buy the Ion, but for a first gun the
Ion isn't right. Get a tippmann, it should teach you some maintainance,
not much though, just the basics, like oiling your gun, disassembly,
the usual.

Tippmann. Do yourself a favor and get the tippmann. Spyders are, from
my personal experiences, nothing but trouble. Everyone i know that had
a spyder switched over to tippmanns after their spyders broke down, and
they've never looked back.

| get an a-5 with response trigger, very reliable, don't have to worry about getting any stupid electrinics wet, and i play against people in speedball with my a-5 in the indoor arenas and still kick ass. plus the gun comes with an autofeeder, mine only broke balls once and that was with the stock barrel and crappy walmart paint. i got a big m-4 setup on my gun and it doesn't stop me in the speedball arenas just intimidates those with the shiney guns that are easy to spot. |

let me tell ya a little sumthin 'bout spyders...if you dont mind goin
to a paintball feild with your friends, playing for half an hour, then
sitting on the sideline watching all your friends have fun for another
2 hours while you sit there and try to figure out whats wrong with your
gun, THEN GO AHEAD AND GET ONE!!!!! This happened to a kid at my local feild. I had my gun for a year at the time(he just got his a month before this happened)He was braggin about how much faster a n "better" his gun was(he had a new Spider Imagine) "My gun shoots full auto"he would say..."What's it matter you're not allowed to use it!!!!!!!"...Later on he sat and watched me and his four friends(who ALL had tippy's) play 5 man together for 2 hours. He was a snob...I took him out at least three times in the thirty minutes he was able ta play. His friends just said"We told you to get a Tippy!!!!" ------------- 98custom unique 4+3 harness 14" J&J Ceramic Barrel |

Only reason I chose a tippy is because you was gonna upgrade it,
otherwise you can buy a spyder with all them items already on it. Tippy's are good but I don't consider them speedball material without some serious mods, IE trigger pull but with response that be fixed, you could just go buy a spyder fenix for 250, and have all that stuff already on it. Whoever said spyders of POS clearly is just a die hard fan of tippmann, im sure my fenix could beat your tippmann. Ya tippmann's are very good guns don't get me wrong. However the new spyder fenix is better. |

| My brother bought the spyder pilot and no problems he didnt even need a new hopper to shoot 16bps. It is electro and looks cool plus if u dont like you can sell the insides to spyder and buy a better guns insides for less then half of the gun price that you would pay for a new spyder gun SO I SAY THE PILOT=$190 FOR SPEEDBALL AND SCENARIO////THE 98 N FLATTY N RESPONSE FOR WOODS AND SPEED BALL=$320 |

If you get anything Smart Parts you are extremely stupid You will look
like an idiot. Get a cocker anyway you can because you can upgrade the
crap out of them. Also if you enter any speedball tourneys you will get
the respect that you deserve. Be smart Don't get anything Smartparts.
If you do You'll end up looking like this guy . Cockers 4 life .

i say you get a 98c or an ion. i used to have an a5, and it is a nice gun. but i am a wussy, and my arms got pretty tired carrying it, plus if you want to get it too shoot nice you have to upgrade the barrel and get an expansion chamber. the 98c, my friend has one, and i like it allot, however it is a pina to take apart and clean, cause little pins come out. I just started looking into ions and they seem forsure the best, but then you will need a little more $$. ------------- Jesus- the way to go. planning to get ion |

| I think the person that started this long as heck topic needs to specify whether he likes to play speedball or woodsball. Then we can flipping end this, it's a little long. I would take an A-5 over Ion any day. Plus if you save up just get an E-grip with JCS double tigger and it will rip an Ion in speedball. (unless you just like suck at speedball) |
