You're going to spend a lot of money on a Buzzard regardless of whether it's new or used. Sniper IIs are awesome. I started out with a SL-68 II and worked my way up. You can find a lot of nice Phantom packages on the Nation. I would look for something like that first. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

yeah, phantoms are great for the price you pay for them. If you can hold out for a while, Lapco has officially said that they are going to start producing the grey ghost again. They're asking the moderators of their forum what color they want the anno-scheme right now. ------------- <Removed overly wide sig. Tsk, you know better.> |

I don't have a price yet, but I'll drop by the shop and talk with the guy who moderates for LAPCO to see what the scuttlebutt is. ------------- <Removed overly wide sig. Tsk, you know better.> |

| i dont know much about pumps but the new C-3 by tippman is kinda cool. it uses propane and one tank gets you 50,000 shots. just thought it is kinda cool that it is powered by propane. |

c-3 would be last choice, pumps are suppose to be light and low profile, c-3 is huge and heavy. i thought about getting an autococker body, and building one from scratch. however the grey ghost if it is being manufactored again is another great option. ------------- Canadians do it on top.

Quiet is a good thing in a pump marker too. C3s are not quiet. -------------

Keep the SL faith, at least for the time being. Work your way up, is what I'd say. (I own an SL68II, trust me they're indestructable) ------------- Most importantly - People suck. |
