    If you get a warp...The only downside is your going to have to take out the batteries to turn it off, or install a on/off switch yourself. Warp feed is an excelent upgrade, you can fire faster with it with less chops, and it lessens your profile. Emag is a great gun..A big bonus is if you run outta batteries at a big game or something, just flip it to manual and you can still fire real fast in RT mode.

        warp...I cant think of any downsides except that maybe it adds a lil weight, but not that bad. E-mag....is their anythignbad about it? I mean, you can run your hopper and warp off the batter of the E-mag and thats great. what kinda E-mag you gunna get? extreme or regular??

            Emag simply rocks regardless what any of the other marker quoting trolls say. Get lvl 10 for it and you will have hands down the most reliable marker ever made.

            Warp takes a bit of getting used to, when you first play with it you'll be afraid that you'll break it. Give it a solid day of play and you'll never go back. Having that big bloated target out of the view area with worth the price alone.

            Ricochet, not bad, but once you learn to rock and roll on the Emag you may find yourself out shooting it, I had one for 2 weeks, got tired of faltering strings when playing the backline, it couldn't keep up with me when I was sweet spotting the other team off the break... nothing worse then watching a guy run through your paint stream and make it saftly to their first bunker... rico simply couldn't keep up with long shooting strings, swapped it out for a HALO and have been happy ever since, the bad guy gets to take the walk now when I sweet spot 'em off the break, its near impossible to run through a solid stream of paint, the only time they survive now is if their either wipe or it all bounces, and HellFire don't bounce.

            HALO, may as well give you the poop on it since I highly recommend it... 6 AA's add some substantial weight. The HALO is about the same dimemsions as a 12v revy, just alot heavier and a hell of alot faster. The HALO A is pretty loud, the B with the belt drive is alot quieter and a bit faster then the A, B is definitely alot easier on paint. I was lucky not not break any paint with my A, but I knew quite a few who did break paint with it. Sent in 2 A's to be upgraded about two weeks ago, got them back just a couple days ago, will try it out tomorrow.

              thanks alot evil, you really helped me out. i would probably outshoot the ricochet, but i play mostly front,so long strings arent that big in my game. plus, i found a package deal with black emag, warp, and ricochet. sounds good to me

                hey man, before u choose, shoot it first. I know quite a few people who thought the emag was amazing... untill they shot it. Including me, i thought it was guna be the coolest electro since... well ever. Yet when i held one, i didnt like the trigger, at ALL, it was heavy, and it was a BLENDER. I couldnt get through a hopper wihtout it breaking a ball, on any of the emags i have shot, most had warp feed. Warpfeed is entirely preference, you REALLY need to experience it before u buy it. I know i thought i wanted it, but then when i used it it was too bulky. The emag is fast, and acurate. Maybe now with level ten i would consider them useable but i would save yer lunch money and buy an extreme, they look like they are guna be REALLY good.

                  i just saw the coment about the most reliable gun ever. Well my intimidator has never had a problem. ive never seen an intimidator with a problem. I have a close friend with an emag, he never played a full day with it. :-)

                    thanks for a heads up man. the only time i have ever held and "fired" an emag was at national paintball store and it didnt have any air or anything on it. i just pulled and pulled the trigger. i loved it. but then i go to my field and shoot an angel and love that. then i shoot an electro cocker and love that. i think i just love everything paintball . no really though, im not sure whether to get an angel or emag. would it even be worthwhile to run warp on an angel?? thanks for all the help guys

                      I have to say that I would agree that you should try it first only because of the price but I find the e-mag awesome!!! I love my e-mag.

                      The only time I had trouble with breaking paint was when I used some bad marbelizer ( breaking waist high drops ). I have been using team colors lately because I get a good deal. I have had no breaks in the last 6 cases.

                      I also love my warp!! I will never go back. It does take some getting used to but I love it. I was never good at switching hands to shoot left but with the warp you can just roll the gun over and go at it!!!

                        so the best option would probably be the emag with warp?? i like that option alot, im just wondering if the angel with warp would be any better? ive been doing tons of research on both guns, and they both seem to be very very nice. what are some main differences between them that make either one better or worse??? thanks

                              It is the same as if you were getting a car, try each one out and see if you like it before you plunk down the money.
                              If the store wants to make a sale they should let you try out a marker first, if they don't go to another store.
                              Choose whatever you are the most comfy with shooting!
                              ALWAYS remember that shiney does not make it a good marker.
                              Choose wisely (cough*mag*cough)
