I don't think I've ever met anyone who owned a phantom and didn't like it.

One of the best guns out there for playing stock (mod stock, at least, due to the autotrigger but whatever).

Putting a hopper and /or tank on there can be a little weird, balance-wise, due to the extreme light weight of the marker.

Oh, and I love mine.

Love my Phantom, carry it around the house everyday. Ive had it for over two years, and sold off every other marker I owned beside my Phantom. Planing on getting alot of upgrades and possibly some mods for it, only thing slowing that down is whether or not I get a videocard instead.

While Phantoms are fairly common and loved by many, there are several other nice choices. I would suggest trying as many out as possible to see which is for you. However you can never go wrong with a Phantom, was the best thing Ive ever bought.

Heres the only picture I have of mine: Link (http://www.jayloo.com/files/pics/9000/Gun1_8290.jpg) , It looks better in person, It isnt a very good photo.
In any case when you do decide on what you want and get it there better be pictures :D

Definatly try it out first, its a entirely different game. But, in a good way (for the most part). I save $100s on paint and air, its light enough to not get in the way, it is also a great trainer. I feel that when I switch back to semi I would have twice the skill. Sure, you don't have speed, but it molds you.

i really liked mine when i had mine, sold it to thor because i figured he would get much more use out of it than i would, plus i needed a lil cash. its a great marker, and i highly reccomend em. grab one up if you can

i played pump last weekend, i used a phantom, traccer, and brute (traccer wanna-be), i myself want a pump to have constant air and a hopper on it, i also want it to be cose effective, so, i would go with the traccer if i were to get one, it felt nice and good quality, while still being very inexpensive. (i own none of the 3 listed above, although the brute does live with me)

Here's my Phantom, pretty stock. I have a delrin ring mount for the 22ci. HPA tank as well. I have the balance with the 22ci just right so that it balances exactly center. I will see if I can find another picture of it setup that way.
