ok, so i've labled myself recentley as a woods baller but i also play some speed ball, so recently i had an epiphany of sorts, why cant a person play both, they both have their plus's and minus's and are both lots of fun.  so i decided to get a speedball gun.  i was kinda look in at the new wraths,  anyone know of a good mid-level speedball gun to get?

Can you expand on mid-level. Mid-level in preformance or mid level in price?

pirahna evo, or something of that sort.  They're pretty nice for what you get, but it's around $200 if my memory is right.  It has eyes, it's fast, and it looks awsome

Look into a gun called the Assault 80, not for everyone, but really really awesome. fairly low price(highest it goes it around 500, but mid-level A-80 will be cheaper) I've heard of Ion regs creeping and then blowing hoses.. so if you take that path a new reg would be a good idea.

Is a Pro-Carbine any good at speedball, because that is the gun Im getting and I am a bigger fan of speedball than woodsball.

The Pro-carb is a great gun BUT its not really that great for speedball. Its big, heavy and very slow with its heavy 9lb trigger pull. The Pro-carb is better for woods IMO. I would also say stay away from cockers they stink. They're slow, finiky and just a real POS. If you don't have alot of money look into getting some sort of cheap electro gun. E-99, BKO or B2K.

Not really. even if you do a trigger mod the trigger pull will still be 3 lbs (the same as a stock M98) which is still pretty slow and heavy for speedball.
