A Gun for little Brother?

[Jason Reed]

I thought about biulding him a mag out of old parts laying around or buying him a tippmann, I know he will be trigger happy so he will need a nitro tank if I make him a mag. Or he can use my old 20oz.CO2 bottle if I get him a tippmann. I just don't know what to do. Because I want an E-MAG really bad, but I have only a little money and if I got an E-MAG I could give him my Mag. Life is full of Decisions, so how about some help and some Ideas.
Thanks,
Jason

Hmm... How many parts would you need to buy for the mag? If you already have a valve, gripframe, etc. it might be more worthwhile to do the mag... I mean, the mag body could be bought off the classifieds for cheap and the same for the nitro...

Go with a Spyder- they are great guns if your brother plans on playing more than woodsball.

Spyders are better for speedball than tippmans, true.

Um.......

Okay well i would say go with the mag #1 low matinence and a good gun to learn how to fix and tinker with. #2i dont know about you but nitro around here works a hell of a lot better and is a lot cheaper. Teh only thing you would have to teach him is about shorstroking. Hope this helps.

Tippmanns are great

Tippmann C98 our great starter guns out of the box. Easy to maintain, good manual, and a bunch of upgrades available. But...

I bet your little bro will want a mag within a year especially if he's always playing with you.

Might save money down the line just letting fixing up a Mag for him.

I have the same problem but the only thing is it is for my older brother. He just spent 6 months over in Kuwaitt and since then I've told him how wonderful my Micromag is and now he wants one or at least try it. To bad he lives in Utah and I'm in cali. In my opinion give the kid a mag. If he gets into it that is what he'll want anyway. Especially if big brother shows everyone up with an Emag.
