Hey, thanks for catchin' your mistake. More than alot of people here can say. I'm pretty sure a mod will move it, so there's no reason to repost it. Of all of those, I'd have to say the Tippmann. Superb customer service, durability and a wide range of upgrades, depending on your style. Good luck! ------------- Evil Elvis: "Detrevni is definally like a hillbilly hippy from hell"

Yeah good to catch your mistake I would go in this order: 1)tippmann 2)imagine 3)tac 5 recon I just really don't like the tac 5 at all. Tippmans are fansastic guns. Ive shot the spyder imagine before. For a low end, it is quite nice... I Have no problem to recomend it to you if you are starting paintball. My #1 choice would be the tippmann 98 as it is fantastic for a beginner player up to an intermediate player. ------------- <just say no to unnecessarily sexualized sigs> |

It depend on how and what you play. But I prefer the 98.

My 98 def. Shot about 12 cases of paint through it and no broken balls. i cant believe it. and its not even an ACT.
it also was shooting close to 600 at a chrono once, but i hadn't chronoed it since i installed my expansion chamber and i didn't realize i had my velocity screw out that much. Shot the screw out of the gun. Couldnt believe that either. Scared the livin crap out of the guys chronoed after me. It shot hot for a while, but i got it figured out. till it ripped the replacement screw out. My fault i slightly cross-threaded it. Problem is fixed now Spyder is second Recon is third ------------- "Hey You, Dont tell me there's no hope at all. Together we stand, Divided we Fall" Pink Floyd "Hey You" Honor A Vet.

I like this new guy he seems to have his head on a little better than some of
the other new members cough e-rok. But back on subject I would go with tippmann and spyder as a tie because I own both products and as long as they are maintained the both perform flawlessly as for the tac 5 I have seen so many kids have problems with them at the local fields that I don't even like to here or read the name any more. ------------- <Sig violation, Section 1> |

I'd go with the 98 custom. Better than the rest. Even Stock.

98 custom. The spyder would come in second. ------------- NASA and the Americans spent millions of dollars and hundreds of hours to develop a pen that would write in space.....The Russians used a pencil. |
