I am thinking about building either an Egomag, an Emag or a pumpmag. It started me thinking, since I only play woodsball, what would I use as my main? So let me ask, what do people consider their main marker?

For me it depends...if I'm on the field and there are a lot of walkons then Iuse my pumpmag...if there's a lot of 'speedballers' i use my mech...havents played woodsball for a couple years but always relied on one of my mechs...that's justme though:headbang:

Primary is witch ever marker i decide to shoot that day lol.

Usually take three guns to the field when i go. One of the Mags (Classic or RT ULE), DP E1, and a Tippmann SL-68II.

When i get to feild if alot of renters are playing the Tippmann comes out, if its a bunch of the regulars i will most likely opt to shoot a Mag. If its the local feilds speed ball team practicing and joining the walk ons i usualy use the Mag as well but sometimes use the E1 (though with my new ninja tank and SHP reg i may see my E1 collecting alot of dust)

I'd have to say my primary is my E-Tac. I've spent some time getting it tuned perfectly, and I just enjoy playing with it.

Though I do occasionally play with my TPX, or my pump Mag (now with a Minimag body). I've also recently built a warp-less Pneumag, over the winter, and haven't really had a chance to play with that one yet.

My main squeeze is a warpfed Emag with stock and remote line, sometimes a Phantom depending on the crowd.

Really nothing special, but it's dialed in pretty well and always ends up being my go to. With a ULT, SHP tank and trigger stops, it's a paint hose.

P.S. love the Dallara Squid, but I would probably be too scared to play with it much like I am mine.

My main markers lately has been my phantom and adrelin Imp. But for years (7 or so) my pumpmag was the main gun.

I go through phases.. but I have three main guns;

ZR-1 for when I need to throw 2 cases a second at someone
E90 for when I am in a "HEY LOOK AT ME" kinda mood..
but no matter what I seem to always go back to my first love - my XMAG!

I've been using my Etek 3 mostly. When it's time for mechanical, I have a ULT'd, Xvalved, Y-Framed mag.

Thinking about putting together a pump on the stock autococker I have sitting around. And my MQ'd Freeflow cocker is really just a show piece right now.

it is now torn apart and waiting on ALOT of parts, machining and ano ~Evil Smile~

this is my back-up, never had a problem with it and if I do, then I have the means to bludgeon my opponent

Day in Day out, this is my primary marker. . . . .

When there is a real need to throw an ungodly amount of paint I usually grab this. . . . .

. . . . and when I want to Pump I use this. . . . .

It always just works. Going on 2 years now. Another Craigslist gold find. Still worth what I paid for it.

Wasnt very efficient at first but the more I used it....now its the most efficient marker I have.

Been using this since I built it in 03, for pump I use either a pump mag, unibody phantom or sniper ( the ram 68 in the pic isn't used anymore). If I really need to unload I'll borrow the wife's x-mag. :)

Well when Im on the speedball field its the always reliable Ego:
http://i815.photobucket.com/albums/zz75/kwik175/photobucket-3610-1355334103571.jpg

When I play recball of course its a mag built by Bunny and pnue'ed by Loguzzzzz:

And I hate to say it on here, but I do sometimes shoot a Cocker that also has a pump kit:

How did this become a picture thread? If anything, shouldn't you guys post videos of you actually using your favorite markers?

As far as game types... strangely, depending on the field, "woods" games tend to consume more paint than smaller hyper/airball fields because you're engaging at longer distances (depending on cover) and trying to do stuff like lob paint through trees/leaves/branches, etc.

hmm for me it depends on what i'm feeling like

with walk-ons its my GX-3 or classic mag with ANS parts
with the rest of my team its my E-orracle or pm5
if i'm playing a tourney its my NXT

Hopefully i'll be building a couple guns this summer... probably a pnuemag and a cocker

No known videos of me using the guns. Best I can do is pictures. These are the 3 guns I listed in the previous post.

2k11 G6R was my primary for most of 2012 after I got it working properly.

My go to gun before that and my alwasy trusty backup is my Jack Skellington Invert Mini

The different feel of the guns is the only thing thats keeping the G6R in my hands, I find if I stop playing with it for a while, I have to learn to point all over again with it. I have been shooting mags and then the Mini for so many years the single tube design is a no brainer and I can pick them up and shoot and be pretty dead nuts accurate, but stacked tube guns takea bit for me to get used to handling.

When I go to the field I generally take 4 markers with me

1 AKA (kinda) Evil M
2 FBM bodied Super Spimmy (the 2k5 frame and lpr the only BLAST parts)
3 Halfblocked Ebladed Vengence pro 2 autococker
4 Ule bodied omega railed lvl X ReTro valved mag

I generally show up, pull them all out, run them over the chrono (I havent had to adjust the velocity on any of these in years), put the electros away, and play with my mag

Gun Whore in me used to play with my mags 100% everytime...

But now the anti whore in me plays solely with My CCM T2..

Nothing I enjoy more than slinging less paint than my opponent and still getting a kill or two!

In order of preference...

x-valved mech mag (body depends on my mood) Sometimes, I'll throw a pneu frame on it.
Tac-one (only for scenario games)
Zodiac zr-1 (for when I feel like wasting a lot of money on paint)
Invert Mini (for when I feel like wasting more money on paint than usual, but not as much as with the Zodiac)
RT Classic
BLM with all AKA internals (actually works great at about 225psi)

I really need to get up to Brew City sometime. It looks like a lot of fun and it's really not that far from me.

I knicked my ver framed mm2k9 and my brother had to talk me down from a ledge.....I have never ever worried about this. There is no point in owning something that just sits in the gear bag or on "the wall". The only real problem is deciding which one to use and making sure they all see duty at some point during the season. That is the most challenging aspect of owning these!

I have so many that is may take two seasons before they all see a field other than "Show and Tell"! :D

When I need to sling paint, my BL closer. For casual game play it has been my '99 sniper2 lately. I also switch out with my VSC phantom. Haven't played with my mags in a long time. Need to tune my warped mag and get it out there, love the way it turns heads.
