How much? People need to give these answers. If it's not over 600 CND
don't know what that is American get an Ion with an egg II and a HPA
tank and a mask. ------------- Please for the love of god don't get a flatline. |

Automags are a great gun for fun, recreational play. Easy to maintain, compact, and decently quick without the complications of an electro.
airgun.com and automags.org for more info |

At first, I would suggest a Custom Pro with a Revolution hopper and if you can, try to get a compressed air tank. CO 2 is ok if you can't afford it, but comp. air is a great choice. That is a great setup for a new player. ------------- Overshooting, America's greatest pastime. |

Ill second the vote on the Automag. Very reliabel and upgradeable. Veary small and arguably the fastest mehc markers ever made. I REALLY miss my mag and am currently trying to get another one. ------------- AGD 68 Automag Azodin KPII Sheridan PGP2K Tippmann Crossover XVR Tippmann ProCarbine Tippmann SL68-II Tippmann TiPX |
