I need to find a gun to get for speed ball. Im going up against uped ions and imps, also the usualy shocker. Im looking for a good gun that can keep up with those. I willing to pay for however mcuh my gun will sell for on ebay. Then im buying HPA. Also i know i have to buy a hopper. So that is at 150 for a hopper and hpa. And i can prolly kick and extra 100 into buying a new gun. What gun should i get. And i do not want to be another kid with an ion!! ------------- Tippmann A5 Tippmann double trigger Smartparts Progressive 16" E-Grip Empire reverse spike Jersey 05' Proto Pants PMI 72/3000 Soon to Come WAS board reg QEV mod new barrel |

I don't know hard to say. Tippmann's have a horrible re-sale value. You still won't be able to keep up with a stock shocker, but the most important tool isn't the gun, it's the player who's shooting it. You would be lucky to get $275. ------------- http://www.sloganizer.net/en/">

I agree, I would get the Promaster though It's basicly the B2K5. ------------- Please for the love of god don't get a flatline. |

Angel LCD's are nice, especially if you can find one that has eyes for a good price. Here's a vid of one that has been FLY'd: http://www.angel-owners.com/mastertech/df01.mpg"> |

you could get a b2k or something, but that won't keep up with impulses and shockers or even the oh so common ion ------------- X |

Shockers = Fall aparts. If your willing to pay $800 for a gun look into a Proto Matrix, there only and with the right person (www.countypaintball.com) you can use a coupon to take off $40. or, you can use a marker that is just as fast and is $200 cheaper. The Evil Pimp... its only Runs for $600 and it will be just as fast as some of the top of the line markers today, and 10x cheaper. -------------

| I'd say get a low costing high-end gun like the new promaster or B2K4, and get a great nitro tank and great hopper. With a great nitro tank and hopper, a promaster i bet ccould keep up with any gun that costs 600 bucks |

save up some money and get either a b2k4 or a wrath. ------------- NASA and the Americans spent millions of dollars and hundreds of hours to develop a pen that would write in space.....The Russians used a pencil. |
