Check out the Electronic Markers section on pbnation.com. You can get a lot of decent higher end used guns for that price.

ive been looking at the PMR, but it seems flimsy. my friend has an epiphany,
it seems like a strong build, but its heavy. can a PMR outperform an epiphany? also, the epiphany's trigger is increadible. is there any trigger for the PMR that can compete with the Epiphany's? the default trigger seems flimsy, and ive never seen the Edge trigger or the silk. which is the best? ------------- Paintball Gun: A-5| E-Grip| JCS Trigger| J&J 16" Toaster Oven: 05 Special Edition Burner| Increased Toast Capacity(Up to 15 slices!)| Speedline Toast Rack set to 34 POTPS(Pieces Of Toast Per Second) |

Am I the only one that is sick of seeing these posts? Is there a freaking marker that you HAVEN'T asked about? And to Nit-Pick just a little, doesnt this belong in the "which marker is best" category? Seriously with as much as you are posting, you would think you would get it by now. Oh, and lastly, if you can't figure out how to buy on PBNation..... nuff said. "Better to keep quiet and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt".

Apparently he wants more bps from the amount of PMR posts we have seen. I will have to agree if you like the thing so much just buy one. If not pick a marker and learn it. you wont be happy with any marker if you only pull out every little bad thing there is about a marker.

Hey all, i think i owe all of you an apology. now that i look at it, my threads
were all pointless. I'm sorry you guys, and i promise, ill only post a thread when i really need to. Also I've made up my mind, ill get an 07 Shocker NXT, and if i don't have the money, my fallback is an EOS or a PMR. Also oldpbnoob, i owe you a separated apology. I'm sorry about that mean comment i made earlier. now that i look back on it, i think i was the a**. i was cranky at the time, so I'm sorry. I hope you all accept my apology, 'cause i really mean it. ------------- Paintball Gun: A-5| E-Grip| JCS Trigger| J&J 16" Toaster Oven: 05 Special Edition Burner| Increased Toast Capacity(Up to 15 slices!)| Speedline Toast Rack set to 34 POTPS(Pieces Of Toast Per Second) |

and its a fun gun to walk and shoot. i like how its increadibly quiet, easy to clean, an lightweight. i do have some minimal problems tho, since its a bit more expensive than a PMR, i may not be able to get a good loader with it. i was thinking an eggy3, because its cheap and does 23bps. a less important desicion i have to make is the color of the marker. i have an invert 08 SE us army camo jersy, camo jt mask, and black smartparts fighter 3 pants. i was thinking a Dusted Olive, but if i get a new jersy when i outgrow my current one, i may get a different color (black, red, blue) my jersy is actually half black, half camo, and the pants are black, so what would be better, a Dusted Olive, or Dusted black? i know the color doesnt matter, but i just dont want to go walking onto the field looking like a noob with a purple shocker and an orang jersy 
(also, i question how much longer they are going to make camo jersys, so i may want black because it goes with any color jersy, but that olive shocker on that camo jersy looks so d*** sexy!) i know its stupid, but do you think they will make camo jersys forever? ------------- Paintball Gun: A-5| E-Grip| JCS Trigger| J&J 16" Toaster Oven: 05 Special Edition Burner| Increased Toast Capacity(Up to 15 slices!)| Speedline Toast Rack set to 34 POTPS(Pieces Of Toast Per Second) |

that and it said camo was out. does that mean that an olive would be bad? what would you get if you were me with a small camo jersy and black pants that i may outgrow in less than a year?

Go with a black gun. For some reason thats the only color I really like in most guns. As for the camo being out that seems like more of a suggestion.

I agree, in my opinion camo is a thing of beauty, and i will get a camo jersey every time i can; but this may just be me, but it seems some companies are dropping production of camo/olive jerseys. i would love to get an olive marker, but its just to risky (if they do stop camo/olive jerseys). I'll go with the black one, because if they do stop camo, black can go with any other color too; from camo to bright pink, black works. ------------- Paintball Gun: A-5| E-Grip| JCS Trigger| J&J 16" Toaster Oven: 05 Special Edition Burner| Increased Toast Capacity(Up to 15 slices!)| Speedline Toast Rack set to 34 POTPS(Pieces Of Toast Per Second) |

i have a question, what is the virtue russian legion shocker board like? i
havn't seen any reviews for it, and it boasts some pretty impressive features. i am worried, because it has absolutely no acknowledgments (that i can find) on the internet, and considering its said-features, i would expect to see alot. is it somthing i should invest in, or is it all crap? ------------- Paintball Gun: A-5| E-Grip| JCS Trigger| J&J 16" Toaster Oven: 05 Special Edition Burner| Increased Toast Capacity(Up to 15 slices!)| Speedline Toast Rack set to 34 POTPS(Pieces Of Toast Per Second) |

No offense, but going with this kids posts, it is obvious that he is incapable of making ANY decision on his own. I imagine he checks with his mommy every night before he "takes care of business" as to which hand he should use.

have tried this gun, and i ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT but i thought it was way out of my price range, but it wasnt. ( i got it mixed up with the ego8 lol) also, the proshop i was going to didnt even have any at the time. they gave me their honest opinion on which one they thought was best for me (they know me pretty well). saying anything about them telling me to buy it from THEM just because its EXPENSIVE is just rubbish. they just told me it was a good one in that price range. they recommended for me to buy it straight from the official planeteclipse.com, because they were all out of ETEK2's at the time. those people at that proshop are GREAT because they dont try to swindle you of your money. they are just two people(husband and wife) who own the proshop, whose son is on the team Dynasty or something. lol their other eight-year old son has a Bob Long Marq 7 (just wanted to say) ------------- Paintball Gun: A-5| E-Grip| JCS Trigger| J&J 16" Toaster Oven: 05 Special Edition Burner| Increased Toast Capacity(Up to 15 slices!)| Speedline Toast Rack set to 34 POTPS(Pieces Of Toast Per Second) |
