I need to find a good gun and the best guns everyones telling me is either electra or ion. So which gun is best or if theres a better gun for around 200- 300 dollars them tell me. I play speedball, looking for quality and speed. Something durable. Ne body got ne ideas?

I would say go for a Tippmann A-5. But for speedball.... The Electra is a pretty good gun, but I hate rocker triggers (I think you can choose if you want a rocker trigger, or regular on the Electra).

best gun under $300...

Promaster hands down, it pretty much wins in all categories besides customization

 

and 1500th post....

The only problem with the electra is that some fields don't allow the rocking trigger.

promaster or electra depends on what you like. go to a shop look around. but if you get the electra, get the new 2006 model. the one w/eyes. Im going to do this in the next few weeks also. I like the electra 06 but I havent seen a promaster yet.

^^Promaster doesnt need upgrades

and the ones that are made for it make it amazing

 

Sniper, the only threads i see you in are about the ion in some way....

Are you another Ferrari?(not many people will get this prolly, hyrbid will though)

Promaster.. atleast the one that I looked at, is not useable out of the box, you will need a macro-line kit, and an asa... nothing major, just an annoyance.. I still think the Shocker is the best buy....Puts the Ion and Promaster in their places. Also.. noone has said this but the Piranha EVO 2006 is one AMAZING gun. I would atleast TRY that out I have heard nothing but good things about it, it also comes with the EVIL Detonator Regulator which is an amazing regulator. I loved my old Piranha GTI and would have gotten the Evo if only it worked good with C02...I would say that the EVO is much better than the Electra here is a review site of the EVO 2005 http://www.pbreview.com/products/reviews/3546/ - EVO Review
