      The Pro-Classic might be the way to go, as you can also just pop in an X-Valve if she wants to upgrade later. If she's going single trigger, I'd encourage something with a ULE-Trigger. I put together my ULE RT-Pro for under $400 from parts acquired on the forums.

      Still 9 days, hey I couldn't ask for a better girl, she loves the outdoors, ridin quads with me, fishing, camping, and especially paintball too.

      She is a little Chinese gal and fits behind bunkers I would never try to get in to lol, it can be very amusing to watch her.

        Thanks. Too bad its gone now. It is probally the only marker I actually miss. My wife likes her xmag more tho.

        Its awesome getting your girl intersted in playing. My first date with my wife was dragging her to play paintball with me in high school. 8 yrs later as my wife she still loves to play. I almost think she likes playing more than me. The #1 thing is to make she has good equipment. If she enjoys it you will get to play twice as much.

          Go top of the line:

          ULE body, ULT and xvalve.

          Her equipment has to be better than yours.

              Pro-Classic Valve

              Dstud2000, The pro classic valve is just the original Automag/minimag Airvalve. The good thing about the valve is that CO2 can be used but with HP air the consistency tightens up as temperature will not effect the valve operation like CO2 in varying temperatures would.

              If she isn't into high rates of fire then this valve would do her justice. As punkncat states however, the trigger pull will be abit stiff but if she shoots very limited rounds in any engagement that shouldn't be a problem for her. You could get about two to three mags from various sources to build the right set up for your misses and then have enough parts to build one or two more mags for friends that might go with you. These forums and Ebay will allow you to really pick and chose parts at good prices to get what you are looking for.

              Well good luck and once you have it built we want pictures......of the marker....with your wife holding it..... hope this helps. V/R Jerry "Outlaw5" Perkins

                Let me explain women for you.....

                What she says is not what she wants. What she wants is for you to interpret that, and get

                " I want a HOT purple marker that is faster, lighter, and sexier than your marker. If I get what I want...you will get what you want. "

                    This man speaketh the truth. Kiddies take note and save yourself a lot of grief.

                    I also find it amusing that MANN's wife shoots a better marker than 90% of AO

                    Getting your girl into paintball can be expensive. Dont forget, its not just the marker. Its the matching tourney pants, jersey, gloves, pads, etc.....

                    Here is what I bought my wife to keep me, I mean her, happy. Maxed out DC Viking (in purple of course).

                      there will be pics once I get the whole setup including the urban digi camo pants to match me, the jersey she wants from animal paintball, etc. I appreciate the extra info about the pro classic. I am not too worried about the trigger pull, she shoots an old tippmann 68 carbine right now, that is a rather heavy and long trigger.

                      Anyone dealt with Animal Paintball? Is it pretty easy to send them your club logo and have it printed on one of their jerseys?

                      Thanks for all the replies and for making me laugh
