Those are entirely different guns for entirely different purposes. It's like asking if you should get a motorcycle or a fishing rod. Need more info. What kind of player, what kind of game? What are likes/dislikes? Desires, wants? |

Yeah, those are total opposite ends of the spectrum. We need more info on the type of player and games your friend plays. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

I tried playing speedball with a C-3. It didn't go so good. Cockers are good for all-round use. ------------- [IMG]http://i38.tinypic.com/aag8s8.jpg"> |

^^^ I kinda would think it would do good in stock class style play though?

If they'll let you play - most stock-class rules prohibit constant air, and require rock 'n cock tube loaders. But it would certainly be fine in any pump game, or any large-area woodsball game where there aren't many pitched battles. Great for big (long) scenarios, since you never need to fill air. ------------- [IMG]http://i38.tinypic.com/aag8s8.jpg"> |

Whats wrong with using a pump for speedball? I use my Phantom all the time
and its great for snap shooting. Of course, the C-3 still has a big, bulky hopper on it, but it's quite simple to convert it semi-stockclass. |

Nothing wrong with a pump for speedball - if you are a better player than me. My C-3 did fine - me not so much. ------------- [IMG]http://i38.tinypic.com/aag8s8.jpg"> |
