marker for my girlfriend

[sunjess]

yea, I think im between an A-5 and Invert Mini right now. I like the mini for size reasons she doent want something too bulky. When I go without here I want to have a decent backup to the tac-one. I have been doing a lot of research on the mini and there is a lot of really positive feedback on it and its only 125 bucks more expensive then the A5. Not sure about maintenance on the mini though

If you want an electro, you can get a good deal on some of those:

Heres an unused fusion for $250 (note that I am not affiliated with this sale)

Is that an 07 Fusion?

Anyway Fusions are a nice marker but unless that's an 08 Fusion that's not a good deal. You can find 07 Fusions for 225 nowadays.

For an intro marker though I'd go with a used mag over a new tippmann I've never had much luck with tippys and they tend to be rental markers. I never really seen the point of buying what you can rent.

thanks for all the feedback guys. I showed her several guns and she loved the looks and the size of the mini the best. I checked the reviews on it and saw some youtube clips which reinforced the mini as a good choice. It was a little more then what I wanted to spend but now she is happy and I have a decent backup to the tac-one.

she will like the gun, just dont use egg it will be way back heavy.

[Ruler_Mark]

make sure you get a light gun. most girls are whimps.

Built this for my girl, used it one weekend and it was 'too heavy'



or running a remote could remove the tank's weight and help

[riceboi]

dont think there any thing get lighter then mini.

Either get her a mini, or a Proto PMR would be perfect. If you have the money, I'd recommend a PMR with a UL frame, it will be easier for her to hold (plus UL frames just kick ***)

I don't think I'd recommend an A5

im actually getting a mini myself for the girlfriend. very reliable markers, very easy to maintain. and will shoot faster then you ever need. plus they are tiny and for teh womanz this gun is perfect (imo)

Well, the girl has already decided on the mini, so you sure as hell better get it!

I wish I had added this earlier. I let my girl use my impulse for her first game. She did not have a fun time with that electronic trigger. She kept shooting people's feet in the staging area. She hated paintball when she was playing with it, and only started to enjoy the game when I whipped out my 10 year old spyder xtra.
