I am probably going to buy a 2003 B2K in the near future and I was wondering what you guys thought of them. Just to let you guys know I already have an RT Pro.

haha thanks. Yeah, I would much rather have a vike any day of the week than a B2k, but I only work during the summer and have to conserve my money.

I think they're fine markers.But I'm not choosing either of those 2 options.;)

you should have made one in the middle, cause b2k's are good guns for the money, but they will never beat vikings. they are resonably fast, and wont chop with pds. yet, you can get an emag with a ule body and lvl 10 for about the same amount of cash, and you will have ao to help with any troubles, if there are any.

haha, seriously guys the poll is sarcastic. Yes if it is worth buying and not junk and no if you think it is junk.

Great markers in my opinion, pds and another superbolt like mod will eliminate almost all chopping, you can make a BKO shoot 17 bps (which is all you need) and B2Ks get much higher if your after that high bps.

I love my bushy to death... just make sure you maintain it well (in other words, between days of play regrease your ram assembly) and you'll have a great reliable gat. And they shoot FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAST if you upgrade to a chaos board ;)

are you talking about upgrading from the 2002 board that was capped at 13 or the 2003 that is capped at 20+?

Nice and cheap, I owned a bush. Loved it. Just too tall for me now. Get a used one, they have low resale just like mags.

Thats one reason I don't like them. They're just too tall to me. You can get PDS for an eye, SP mod to pinch paint (or lighten your valve spring and LPR) and they're rather quick.

I love my BM2K. It's pretty reliable, light, and fast. I've used it in the rain without a hiccup (AO NE 3), and during Spplat Attack II (again, no problems). As others have said, it is a little on the tall side, but I feel that it's a minor issue.

If you get one, you shouldn't be disappointed.

You left out the choice "it's the most underrated gun made. Not as good as a Viking, but good". That's my vote.

They're quick and a hell of a lot better, stock for stock, than an Impulse.

IMHO, they're too tall and ugly, especially the 2k3.

I'd take a stock imp over a stock bushy any day. On pbwholesalers you can get a stock impulse, vert maxflo, blade trigger, sticky grips, and a tapeworm for 425. This is all comings stock from smart parts. The impulse has a better stock reg and barrel. Not to mention I think stock bushys are extremely ugly.

2k3 bushy < 2k4 bko < impulse < viking < lasoya timmy < excalibur < SL-68

As mentioned before, bko's are pretty good stock. They are awesome with a few ups such as pds (paintball detection system). They are very fast and are extremely efficient. Tornado valve, 20 bps board, good reg, etc. and you're set.

Barfly

yeah I just ebayed myself a 2003 B2k for 335, it was new in box. Also why would the 2004 Bko be better than the 2003 B2k, don't the bko's still use the 2 way solenoid? If they do they are not better imo.

Barfly, dont make me take you into an elementry math class so you can learn your greater than and less than signs again.
I think bushies are great, and I really want to own one. I dont have the money though, sadly. 2 guns on my want list that have been there for a while are 2k3 bushy with pds, and a blazer. :cool:
Maybe if I get a job :p

you are ignorant man, B2K < 2004 BKO, that means B2K is less than 2004 BKO, as in not as good. I was wondering why this was. I am in Math 310 Diff EQ right now, so I know a little something about math. Go back to pbnation where people flame for stupid reasons.

personman
02-02-2004, 06:35 PM
Wow. No reason to blow up on me, eh? So what if I'm a hypocrite and a complete dumbass? Thats my problem, not yours.
My bad.

You might know math, but you don't know paintguns.

back on subject: i agree w/ warped1 when he said most underrated.
my b2k3 rips stock out of the box for much less $$ than lots of markers that are not nearly as good quality.

the peeps that make them are great too. i bought mine at the cup from national. i was going to buy it right from icd, but when i went to gte it, i was told a team had come by and bought them all in my color.
regardless of where i bought it, they set it up and tuned it for me for free, gave me a hat and t-shirt and my buddy a hat as well.

i grilled them for almost an hour the day before i got it and they answered all my questions and even took one completely apart for me. i was unsure of buying my firdst electro, but they put me at ease and were very personable.

great experience and very very happy with the marker.

yeah I can't waite till mine comes in. Question does it mess up the consistency very much using a high pressure tank on them?

Nope, they redesigned the regs for 03'. However, the stock reg kinda sux.

haha, what are you talking about I am a paintabll gun connoiseur ;). Anyways the only difference, that I know of between the 03 bko and the 04 is they used the b2k lpr on the 04 and moved it to where the volumizer was on the 03. Which kind of sucks, because you might not be able to use the mitey max, but I am not for sure.

Nice, very light marker. Pretty quick too. For the money they are a good buy.

that is a nice setup, I must say.

02-04-2004, 09:46 PM
jeez, why didnt your friend just go ahead and get a b2k w/pds instead of spend a ton more on all that stuff?
