Now im looking for a strictly speedball gun, i want the best gun for under 400 and i realy wish it was one that didnt burn through air like my a-5 did. my dadwants a more verstaile gun that he can use in alot of woodsball and speedball. Any suggestions for the two of us?? |

| They're pretty good on air. It will definitely be better than your A-5 was. |

I would go with the ion for speedball. It's cheap and pretty good stock. And for your dad, either an ion or sp-8. The sp-8 is pretty much an ion but has a different body for woodsball. It cost $300 so it really depends how much he's willing to spend. And some HPA tanks aren't expensive. Get the aluminum ones. They're safer and cheaper than carbon fiber but they're also alot heavier. I got my 72ci/3000 aluminum nitro tank for $64.95 at First Call. I get about 900 shots out of it. And the ion(and sp-8) can use co2 but they recommend it to be a anti-siphon co2 tank or a remote coil and vertical tank harness. |
