I have 20 bucks, what can i get for my 98 custom?

I really want a laser on it, not one of the little sights that show a red dot in the middle- I want a actually laser that shows on the target.  How much will that cost me?

I wouldn't get a laser that shows on a target because the laser will have to show pretty bright and if your opponent sees the dot from the laser, he/she is sure to act fast. Also if the laser were to get into someone's eye, they might get really mad because that is annoying and because it can mess up your eyesite. Anyways, paintballs don't fly straight.I fhtey did fly straight, you would be seeing a lot more scopes.

This is all my opinion. I just think you should give it more thought before buying something that you will eventually set aside and possibly never use again.

If all you have is $20, you might want to save your money because paintballs don't come to you for free, unless they are being shot at you.

You could get a double trigger or like 150 paintballs. There is the rocket-cock which allows you to cock from the back of your marker instead of the side. You could also get a rear velocity adjuster which allows you to fine tune your velocity. You might be able to get a drop-forward which moves your co2 tank up so you gun will be balanced and you can hold it closer to your body. You could get a harness and some pods to hold your paint in. You could get a Dead On Core X-chamber. These are just a few upgrades for your gun that can be found for $20 or less. Look around. I'm sure you can find many cheap upgrades.

bought my lazer at walmart 18.89 dosen't work during the day sun too bright but towards nightfall it shows up, as far as using it to shoot iduuno it kinda works i guess, the thing i like about it is i've flushed alot of people from behind cover at like 50 yds without firing a single shot, by simply putting the dot somewhere they can see it. if they don't flush they always move to try to find where it's coming from, even if you're a mile away that little dot really creates a panic like they think they are about to get shot (just paintball psycology i guess)

Unless you have a very accurate barrel a laser wont usually work. I guess it all depends on the distance between you and your target. Usually there already in the lob state and not going to reach them if your further away. If your close mabyee somthing nice to have but I dont know.

Okay I read your responses, thanks a lot guys.  I decided to mount my normal laser (with black tape) on the side of my gun with some black tape, it holds pretty well and aims pretty good also.  So I still have 20 bucks to spend lol.  I already have paintballs, 2 box of Marballizers.  Right now the only upgrade I have on my gun is a 14" PMI Razor barrel.

$20 bucks can buy you lots of stuff. You could make like a 3 hour phone call or 50 packs of gum. Or you could save it.
