I personally would get a blazer.

Or an RT Pro, maybe a Bushmaster 2k3..
If worst comes to worst I guess a cocker would be a good choice :p
Yea, blazers are nice though.. I want one :(
Too bad I'm getting a sucky ol' e-mag tho :o

Imps are nice.
RT Pros are good if you like mechanical.
Um... You could look into one of those new bushmasters. Those look pretty good and should fire just as good too.
There are plenty of different cockers you could find in that price range too.

I think that first Bushy pic is just the standard B2k. The other is the PDS I believe. For that price range, I'd look into an Impulse or a nice Automag. Is that price range just for gun only, or air system too? If it's look into an Impulse w/ antisiphon co2 tank. That run you about $450-500. Good luck.

Bushcrappers are cheap. For that amount of money I would look around for an Intimidator or maybe a used Freeflow cocker. If you're taking the next step up from an Automag, then chances are you're going to want something to tinker with... try out a cocker... I bet you'll like what you find.

Make sure it has a good warranty. Which is why the Intimidator would be a good bet... more solid than a Bushmaster, and whenever you call up the seller, chances are you're gonna talk to Bob Long himself.

i already got a nitro tank and i think im gonna get the sivler one. I figured out that the blue one is a custom 2003. that is like a couple $$$ more

i want somethin cheaper than a boblong. If i had money for one o those id get the viking. And i hate cockers. I borrowed my freinds for a day and i hated it. My mag was better and his cost $700

Bushmasters don't usually go by dates. Their diffretn versions are devided up by generations. LIke the first picture of a bushmaster that a 6th gerneration bushmaster. If you want to find out more about bushies you might want to find a bushmasters owners group. I use to be in one but I can't remmber the web address to it. Its been awhile.

Hope that helps.

Later,

Almost: You got #2 and #3 right. #1 is actually the 2k2 "X-milling" type, the swoosh milling was a little different.

Hey retard, we were talking about the pictures the guy posted, not from the site. Freaking retard, you should of made it more clear. Its obvious from the site it is, and the topic starter was asking about the pics he posted. I got stuff to do as its xmas eve, as seeing as you got no life and no family, have fun.

Ah screw it, I don't think he gives a crap about the milling (besides, they're all copies of Rat impies/GZ timmy's, etc)

Anyway, get a Blazer like Personman said, you won't regret it. It's great stock. Also, a .68 Automag pf Classic with LX (even though I feel I don't need it) and Intelliframe, Shocktech drop, vert adapter, Nitro Duck 68/3000, TASO pro series, 12 v. revvy and whatever else you can afford would be good.

I went to my paintball store today and lloked at the bushmasters they had and they only have the b2k2 with the lcd on it and asked if they could order me one with out. And she droped the price to $575 to $500. So i bought that a system x drop and a macro line. Thanks for all ur guys help. I would of gotten a blazer but i didnt want to wait 3 months and i like the feel of the bushmaster more than a blazer.( my freind owns one and i have shot it a lot.) Only thing i need now is some ble loctite so those trigger screw dont keep commin out! What a pain. Had it about 4 hour and shot about 1000 shots already. I luv it. especially turbo! First time i shot i shot over 8 balls a sec with out even trying. When i bought it i was thinkin it was gonna be like my freinds e99 with the kick that i like but i was sad cuz i couldnt feel it:( i like a kick cuz it makes me shoot faster.(i shot 10 bps on a spyder and those have a major kick.
Im so sad that my mag will have to sit im my bag at tourneys:( well i can play with it at my freinds or were ever i can use nitro.

Every little kid and there mothers are hooked on impys, they arnt that nice! they are a rip off of ICD and people just dont understand that. Just cause a few pros use them doesnt make the uber guns. In all honesty, i think the 2003 bushy is abetter deal. The stock barrel is extremly nice, the stock bolt is amazing (unlike the SP bolt, which 90 percent of owners replace), the new reg works just fine unlike the old one, the new trigger frame will blow the impy frame out of the water (IMO).

I'd say get the Bushmaster. I've heard great things about ICD, and I like their style. The only suggestion I'd make is to try to get it in 'Cocker threads, as it may be easier to find barrels for it.

I think this thread is pretty much done, seeing as the guy bought his new gun and people are just flaming eachother over completely senseless topics.
