Less than 400 i'd go for a BKO.

Why? It's very fast, very compact, light, can be upgraded to the nuts and i heard they are more reliable than a cocker. I'm just waiting for this http://www.shorepaintballsupplies.com/bushmasterbko1.html - bad boy to be released. Then i am going to sell My C-98 and Spyder Compact to buy it. :o)

so would this BKO be better than the Orracle I want? Like faster lighter and more reliable?

bushmasters are great guns along with the cocker. if you don't have the budget for the cocker, get one of those.

Go for an ICD Bushmaster (b2k), you can get them for about $300, be sure to go for one that has PDS though.

So the BKO's and B2K's are better than the cocker I want? I'm really not sure sure what gun I want between A B2k a BKO and Ion. Uhhhhh..... oh yeah and cocker ;)

well cheaper, not a amazing difference in my opion, becasue then u need 2 by nitro (around 180 for a quality tank) so then ur cocker would be at almost 600 without a hoppe the b2k would just be under 400. i also notice u alredy have the egg so the b2k with a quality bottomline and macroline kit is 50 and the barrel depends on how much u want to spend

B2K 04-200(EBAY, DONT WORRY U CAN TRUST FOT THE GUN)

Bottomline setup-52(shockteck bottomline, macroline kit)

nitor tank-180-185(crossfire 68/45or 45/45)

+barrel(depends on the amount u want to spend..

$432+barrel or $435+ barrel

(keep the egg)

Okay So i still need to know which guns: BKO, B2K, or an Orracle cocker. I want a small light and accurate gun. Pretty much all 3 guns are. what are your suggestions. Oh and I can forget I  want a fast gun to. I want to walk the trigger easily with a high BPS.

the orracle is the best gun out of those, but if you want to save a couple o' hundred, just get the b2k cause it's a good gun.

if you don't mind about the money, the orracle will work wonders for you no matter what. eventually you can even slap an e2 on there(i hope to do this one day.)

out of the box an ion owns a bko or b2k. I got one that I kinda don't need anymore that fits in your price range. But anyways, you can't beat ions for the price. Break beam eyes, ramp, GOOD stock barrel and its light. Magnetic trigger thats very adjustable. Ion. It'll last you forever.

Nah no ion. I've narrowed it down to a Bk24 or a Orracle cocker. I just can't seem to decide.

Which was a bad move on their part.  They should just find a way to make it cheaper.  Then they didn't make an E-Grip and ticked everyone off.  As for the best gun..................Psh!  Stock 98c.  I'd sell mine for $400.
