Lvl 10 b/c rins on co2 and who knows how long lvl 10 beta wil be avalible maybe til the final one comes out but who knows

Why do people think that lvl 10 is a necessity and the first thing you should get? It was designed to solve the problem of chopping. If your gun doesn't chop, then there is no problem. If it's not broken don't fix it, especially if you're on a budget. Automags have been used for years without level 10 and worked fine. Sure some chopped, but not all. Personally I feel no need to stick my tongue in the chamber to see if my bolt will hurt it, because that is not playing paintball and my gun is for playing paintball. If it isn't chopping there is no reason to install anti-chopping parts. Unless you're so dead set on upgrading and being a corporate tool, the only reason to buy lvl 10 is to fix something.

I?m very emotional about chopping


if I can get a co2 tank and have problems with it and solve them almost completely with a expansion chamber for $35 dollars and not chop i will have a better day at the park that?s just me.

also a good point if its chopping if your not, go hpa but i think for me I don't want to chop compared with the plusses to hpa I ve had it with HPA and CO2 currently I use a hpa but i like the new lvl 10 better than the hpa.

god how many people use co2 its supposed to be really bad for ur gun. i remember reading my manual when i first got my gun and it saying that co2 will freeze the orings in ur gun dont us it and on and on. so ive never even thought about even screwing in a co2 tank in my gun. ---> does anyone kno the difference between a smart parts all american and a smart parts all amerivan teardrop

[paintbattler]

ok, i would get nitro, then intelliframe, then retro, then freak

[wyn1370]

if you want to spend under $150 get either a lvl10 or an inteliframe. For $150 you won't be able to get a barrel or tank worth the money, you'll end up having to upgrade them.

what about those crossfire preset tanks arent they around 70$?

i totaly agree!i think there are three main reasons for chopping 1,low ball stack(get a better feed system) 2,mis-adjusted powerfeed(get help from tech support) plug 3, impropper trigger pull(learn how to shoot a mag)!

But after using it and learning how good nitro is, one is drawn to get a better tank (lighter, better air flow, bigger capacity).
If you're gonna upgrade get something that you won't want to replace in a few months.

That is a good tank and barrel, and I'm sure you could find an extra few bucks laying around. Or you could look for similar stuff used and save a few bucks. But the point is, you can definately get air and a barrel for 150.

i agree^ or at least with the barrel part i think im gettin the smart parts all american and i have a decent hpa tank for i think 130 (PMI 68ci 3k psi)

(lighter, better air flow, bigger capacity).

this is a very valid point, i have a fiberwrap but i do know a few people who are happy with thier steel tanks.check the 'misc pb stuff' forum, most of the people here are good tradders/sellers.you can even post a thread to ask about buying from a specific person!79.17% polled say hpa(n2)thats a solid start.good luck and HAVE FUN!
