    C&C extreme automag Small, accurate, light, (not quite as light as automag due to battery but closeish), oh and fast

    It all depends on your wallet... an automag with level 10 is a very good start. Best to get a retro valve if possible. The RT pro is a great manual gun to start with and can be upgraded to any of the electronic versions later...

      I agree. Your budget will help dictate what you should get to a degree (actually a big degree for most people). As long as it has a retro valve it is where you need to start.... RT Pro will still give you ROFs that will astonish most Electro Owners and outshoot many of them (depending on your abilities and theirs).

      But whatever you get, make sure you get a motorized hopper. That is a MUST. Which one is all up to you. And a motorized hopper AND Warp Feed would be the next step.

      Level 10 is also a good idea. But I will toss this out to you... if you decide on an RT Pro, you can actually hold off on the Level 10 if your budget is tight. It is a great upgrade, but most of us RT Pro users don't have the chopping issues to worry about. Again, this is not saying it is not a good investment (because it will be), but it would not be the first thing on my list.

        Get a nice mag with an intelliframe or a hyperframe...the defiant and bushmaster are both very compact fast electronic guns

          The Impulse is fairly small, but with some upgrades you will be flying on the trigger. A nice barrel and a Eclipse blade trigger and your in bussiness man.

          Bushmasters are also very nice for the cash..

            RT Pro with a blade trigger on the intelliframe. Also lvl 10, a 12v x board revvy, a nice nitro. RT Pros only run on Nitro.

              Thats e-mag to you.
              I would say go for the AM Classic if you have the money. If you have more than that shoot for the RT pro.

                    Id say go with an RT Pro. You get the intelliframe on it, so all you really gonna need is a Nitro tank and a motorized hopper.

                      OK, I am going to be the voice of dissent. Personally I prefer the Micromag, especially when it has a ReTro valve and an I-Frame. Its small, light, and it takes cocker barrels which are easier to find and cheaper than 'Mag barrels, and before you go off about the whole ease of removing a 'Mag barrel, with level 10 you do not have to remove it, so its a mute point.

                      Just my opinion, I could be wrong.

                      But try some before is what I would really suggest, you never know, for you a chopped down Model 98 may be best.
                      That which does not kill us, cripples us for life.

                        Get the defiant its just as good as the emag but cheaper lighter and more compact

                              The first shot is lower? How long do you stay tucked into your bunker?
