I was just curious if anyone here has shot or owns any of the new BT markers that they came out with this year. Am thinking about getting the Iron horse but $500.00 seems a bit much to me. Is this gun really worth it's price? ------------- Tippmann X7 Tippmann Custom Pro E trigger Tippmann Pro/Carbine Tippmann C-3 Tippmann 98 Custom Tippmann A-5 expansion kit flatline |

I believe he means the Ben Tippmann BT-4 Ironhorse which is a BT-4 with an m4/apex barrel combo and a bipod.  The apex allows you to hook and curve shots, the the stock and bipod steady your aim, the double trigger gives you more firepower, if as if that wasn't enough there's the intimidation factor. I say go for it. Have fun scaring the crap out of newbies.  |

I fired one once. It was fun to mess around with but BT is just unreliable.

Wouldn't happen to have a reason as to why this gun would be a waste of money would you, Sorry just wanted to know why you said this. ------------- Tippmann X7 Tippmann Custom Pro E trigger Tippmann Pro/Carbine Tippmann C-3 Tippmann 98 Custom Tippmann A-5 expansion kit flatline |

| Id rather just buy an A-5 and convert it to make it better than that crap. |

Heh, 500 seems like alot any way for a paintball gun would make more sense to just get an apex barrel for my A-5 after all looks mean nothing since it's performance that matters most, thanks. ------------- Tippmann X7 Tippmann Custom Pro E trigger Tippmann Pro/Carbine Tippmann C-3 Tippmann 98 Custom Tippmann A-5 expansion kit flatline |

I kinda liked hwyhzzrds tactical Ion in the marker gallery.
Nice and compact, but you can still mount red dot, tac light and such. ------------- "I can't jump high, so I jump from high places." -- Cactus Jack
