No. Only people that use correct non-screaming English deserve an Angel. |

I'd save up for a HPA bottle, and get a job if you want to play more than 8 times. ------------- Team Salem, Kuwait 08 |

Woodsball or speedball? Revolution 13s would be good for both, but i reccomend it for woodsball. Look into an Ion for speedball. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

98 Custom power pack $170
Comes with: -98custom -Mask -9oz co2 tank -Allen Wrenches -Owners Stuff Just play then and see what you want after you play. Don't upgrade before you play with a gun stock. You won't know what a good investment is. If you would like your shots to be more accurate, get a new barrel. I reccomend a Lapco Bigshot, J and J ceramic, or SP All American. Need shot consistency? Palmer Stabilizer Regulator Gun too Long? Get a drop forward. Want to fire faster? R/T or Double trigger. Probably will want HPA. |

Here is what you do. Get a 98 Custom. Don't get any upgrades yet. You need to get used to your gun first. Then you can get upgrades for your certain paintball needs. Once you do decide you're ok with your gun, get a list somewhat like this: 12" J+J Ceramic HPA Drop Forward Good 4+1 or bigger harness Double Trigger R/T(if field allows it) or otherwise get the new E-Grip coming out next month. That's a pretty good list for you, but make sure you play with the gun stock until you get used to it first. Otherwise you will be in way over your head. Edit:

Ion? B2k4? Check those out. Factor in an HPA tank and good hopper, too. |

1)tippmann 98c, and mask, co2 etc. (you can find them in packs and stuff) 2)then get a new barrel ( i highly recommend the sp All American 12-16") 3)then a new hopper, but i dont recommend r/t because in alot of places its illigal. 4)if using c02- x-chamber, if hpa- get a reg. 5) new grips, rocket cock, sight rail, drop forward or somthing like that. 6) mods, n stuff -------------

If you don't want a 98c, get an Ion. Then you'd have to get a new hopper to keep up with the speed of the gun. I don't know if a 12v Revvy would keep up or not. I bet it probably would. Then get your HPA tank and mask. Of course you'll need paint. If you want the Revvy there's a sale for it at http://www.pbgear.com - www.pbgear.com , but it's only one color. |

I have persoanlly seen an ION walk to 20bps on the chrono. So I dont think the 12v revvy can keep up. Arent thry only rated in the teens bps? -------------
