Don't get me wrong, I loves my A-5.

I am starting to get into more speedball and am looking at that next level of markers for it. I can save up $1000 in a couple months, but need to know what to get. I don't mind waiting until next year if prices will drop or a better product will be coming out.

Please list some markers or links that you know are good for me to start looking into, or markers that you know are bad, for me to avoid. I play front/mid.

Thanks!

I'd say Intimidator, Cyborg, Viking, DM4/5/Proto, or '05 Angel Speed. In that order.

Are they all pretty much the same, good markers... and I should go with the one I can get the best price on. I do plan to go fondle some and see if one resonates with me.

Usually Id say go try em out, but I found that Vikes, Borgs, and D-Mags are pretty hard to find at most local shops.

If you want a really tight compact light fast marker, D-Mag is your answer. Dont care about size that much(I mean you dont want its cannon size, but you dont need the lightest tightest thing on the market) A borg or a Vike would be sweet. Vikes are really hard to find these days though.

you should check out pbnation.com, you can get some really good deals there, you could probably get a dm5 for that, or a sweet dm4 package

Omen 1.5 then spend the rest of your money on paint and air. 


The ressurected omen, comes with the new 1.5 board which is capable of firing over 25pbs, and it comes with the new 1.5 Cam Feed paddle which will let you use Force feed hoppers such as a Halo with out any worries of Chopping.

The BEST thing about the Omen, and I mean the only other company I know that will give you this type of warrenty is Tippmann...

LIFETIME WARRENTY WITH FREE LABOR AND SHIPPING!(all you have to do is send it there(like $12).

With the money you saved by buying an Omen, you can buy some upgrades, paint and air!

Just got back from the Super 7 for today. I thought about going tomorrow but I think I will go play instead... it's so hard to just watch.

I saw a team sponsored by Empire of all girls anihilate a team of roided up guys. I forget the  team names though.

I am likeing those e-mags, what do you all think. Also, outside the Tippmann trailer I talked to a dead on rep, and he tried talking me into their rear velocity adjuster for my A-5. Any complaints about this one?
