      I think that any gun that has been extensivly milled and anoed is over priced. You can have two guns that are exactly the same, mill away 2 or 3 oz. of Al and then add $500 to the price tag. I understand that milling takes time a uses expensive equipment but I'm sure not going to pay for it.

        dude angels are no where near piece of junk... they are one of the most reliable and durable guns available and the batterys get 40,000 shots or a full 28days of power so i doubt your batterys would die in a day of play. also emags are da **** as well

          what? Excalibur isn't a 'mainstream' gun?

          Honestly i see more guys with Excaliburs and Vikings(well only a few Vikings but they r in the same family) at the field i work at than i see guys with Mags of some sort not counting the rentals heh.

          But really i think the Excalibur is the most over priced gun.

          umm ok... seriously no one is stupid enough not to recharge their battery.

          And no way is an Angel over priced. You get what you pay for. For only $900 u get pure reliability, ROF, and looks.

                      Angels = Over priced. Why? Because its practically the same thing as a bushmaster. Only difference is theres some goofy 14 way valve as apposed to a solenoid. Why pay so much more for something that will perform no better?

                      Excal = Over priced. Why? Pretty much a closed bolt bushmaster. Yeah there are a few benefits to closed bolt. No blowback. In this case valve operation isnt really effected by the feeding system which is good. Because of the dual rams. But is it worth the pricetag? NO

                      I think the features of these guns pale in comparison to the emag. Not only do you get an electronic marker but you get one with probably the best valve system, Manual override, and an rt trigger system. (however im still too poor to own one)

                      Too often it seems people associate quality with price.

                        M98 overpriced. I think not. I think its pricetag is fitting considering its reliability. And I have respect for tippmann they are inovative thinkers.

                        Like the flatline barrel. May not be the greatest thing but atleast it shows that their thinking outside of the box. Which is more than you can say about other companies.

                          bushmasters suck nuts and a 14 way is a solenoid and the angel and the excal will perform much better than a bushmaster...

                            Ok so a 14 way valve is a solenoid. whatever. Doesnt matter. My point was the designs are too close that there will be little to no performance difference.

                            Dont reply with idiotic comments like "Bushmasters suck nutts..."

                            And simply saying "...and the angel and excal will perform much better than a bushmaster" without a valid reason/explanation only shows your ignorance.

                            It seems to me your opinion is based entirely on hearsay.

                            Or if Im wrong please enlighten me with the details as to why you think the angel and excal are soo much better.

                              A player w/ an Angel should be just as good as the same player w/ a bushy, but I'd have to say that the Angel is better of the two. I don't even own a Angel, and have personally owned 3 bushys and sold all of em, and then my brother has 2 of em. Angels just feel A LOT better than bushys do...I used to be a big Angel trasher until ICD started takin forever to fix mine. Then I got to play a game w/ an Angel, and loved it. They hold better, the electronics are much better, the triggers are nice, and they look sweet. Honestly the only thingthat I thinkthe bushys has over the angel is weight, which really isnt an issue for most people anyway.

                                ive played with them and have owned all three... i know what im talking about.

                                bushmasters are unreliable and not durable at all, they have horrible triggers and you have to put lots of money into them to make them "ok". trust me they are not great guns. angels are one of the highest quality guns ever and well the excal wasn't what it was cracked up to be but it still out performed the bushmaster by far.
