i have no gun, want to get a new one that i havent had before, something fun. i have 300 dollars to spend on it. I was sort of leaning towards a dragun TES but I wanna see what AO reccomends. And if it matters, i play mostly rec ball and the occosional tournament with my friends if they need me. i want a fast accurate gun for cheap, ive already had a tricked out 98 with flatline, and a mag with intelliframe. im not looking to get another mag, i wanna see what else is out there. I have an evo 2 and nitro so thats not even an issue. all reccomandations are greatly appreciated.

I'd try either an Omen or TES

Nevermind, thgouth you still had the guns. Have you tried to cocker world before? You can get a pretty nice used 2k3 with 300.

From what I have read about the TES from other players at your play level, the TES seems like a good choice.

04 BKO has my vote, save up the extra 31 dollars and get the extreme. Go to www.shootpaint.com and you can get one with the SP Mod (lower pressure).

Your better off NOT getting the xtreme version. The unmilled version has a better higher flow reg and is easier to clean. The Xtreme has a worse inline wrap around grips and some nice milling. If you want performance over looks, dont get the Xtreme. But if you do get a bko, get the SP mod and stop the chops.

Screw the BKO or the TES, I've heard nothing but trouble from non-eye BKOs and the TES's supposedly is junk.

Go for an e-Piranha... Great markers, they have eyes, and you get the phenomenal customer service from PMI.. I have nothing but great things to say about them regarding my Omen.

OR get a used Omen if you can find one. I love mine.

I shot the TES a few days ago and its pretty impresive for 200$ The eyes kinda faulter at above 10bps, but if your only playing rec, that might be enough for you? Stock barrel was very good too.

Hey numbnuts, if you get the SP mod it lowers pressure reducing chops. There hasn't been a reported chop with it.

i would say buy a new pmi evo. 250 brand new with eyes and will shoot as fast as you can pull the trigger i beleive... not sure if its capped??? but i was actually able to shoot one today and there nice markers and will suit you just fine... although you will out shoot a revi thats for sure. and you may want to mod the trigger a tad but thats up to your liking but i would say piranha evo

ACE'd Spyder of some sort.

They are stupid fast and more importantly, stupid cheap.

paintballgear has an ACE Piranha for $249.

I can vouch for 13 with the TES eyes, nothing faster though, never put anything above a rev on mine.

As for that Phish-- that looks an awfully lot like the older Angels? Do they retain compataibility with Spyder parts even though the gap between the frame and VA has closed? I can't tell if the body is shorter or not.

Evil Omen.

Because nothing sounds cooler.

sounds cooler yes, but they dont shoot for crap. they work fine at first but then for some reason it turned into a blender. i shipped it off, had it fixed, came back and it chopped on the 3rd shot. so needless to say, im biased against em now
