Go with a timmy, a viking and a timmy with both completely rock, the only difference is feel, I like the feel of timmys more, lighter=good

dude, go with what feels right. If your really concerned of what people think of what gun you shoot, you shouldnt be playin paintball.

dude you have a lasoya timmy you cant get a better gun that that well maybe a x mag but those are a rip off (sorry tom) the only thing that is diffrent between a viking is the gas efficincy wich is awesome may i add but you dont need it for god sakes you have pretty much the best gun in paintball

A4, bah... Angel Resale values alone would drive me away from such a choice. I would start looking into an 03 Shocker, or DM4... or like u originally planned... a nice Viking of sorts.
I've always wanted an Orange Featherlight.

Well, of course you're going to get a whole bunch of personal opinions here! I would take the Viking over the Intimidator, but that's because of personal preferences. In terms of selling points, the Viking has AKA's extremely high mark of quality, the efficiency which is legendary, and a great look to it. However, there are many options, and you should explore them all before you decide.

What makes you think everyone is buying Vikings?
-cough, cough, HYPE, cough-
Steelrat

Yeah, like hype wasnt the driving force behind ALL marker sales lately, including:
-Matricies
-Intimidators
-Shockers
-DM4s
-Speeds/A4s
Vikings are good guns. I, for one, did NOT buy one because of the hype. And I think its a little unfair to make that hype jab in this thread, as the original posted SPECIFICALLY asked about a viking.

Timmys have good efficiency, and they are lighter then vikings(stock). Timmy>Viking

Sweet I'm glad u got the A4. Get pics of that up soon if thats actually what your getting. But teamkama is right the timmy you had was the best marker on the market right now IMO. But since you said you been shooting a freinds speed then I guess you made the right move w/ the A4. GL w/ it ;)
Fatjon
01-13-2004, 05:59 PM
yea the deal is pretty much done. we are going to do third party after this weekend because we wont have nothing to shoot.

The A5 is better than the A4.
I mean, its got a higher number therefore it is better right!! :rolleyes:

And to the guy who said vikings are hype, your a fool. What one bit of hype has AKA thrown at us? They get 2000 shots on a 45 fill, REALLY fast, extremely low pressure, dont chop, I mean what the crap. You want hype read spart parts 03 shocker description. :rolleyes:

Have you shot both? the guns are so similar in performance that feel will probably be the biggest factor.
