The ego is supposed to be lighter and more efficient but i like the look of the dm5 more. I'd get the dm5

Get the Ego. Both are great guns, but the Ego is better IMO. I'm not a big Dye fan at all. They're way too overpriced.

Ego, for a variety of reasons I'm too lazy to explain at the moment.

I'd also go with the Ego. I havent seen many around, so spice it up a bit.

Never buy anything before you use it. If you can, try out a game or two with both guns, and then judge from there.

Not much else to say...its definatly personal preference,,,try and find out how "used" each gun is. Is the person the guy who bought it from the package? Or did he buy it from some one who bought it 4m someone & so on? That counts for something. Im sure you'l be satisfied with either.
