Choosing a tournament level marker

[AGDRules]

Seriously thought RT Pro Is A really nice marker I recommend it

[MajorDamage]

Not only is it great, reliable, and easy matenience, but its also the fastest recharging valve on the planet! Capable of 26 bps with no shootdown! Thats more than twice as fast as a Shocker. It can shoot faster than 26, but get shootdown. I love my ReTroMag(basically the same thing).

ENDO!

I have heard tons of great things about bushmasters and they are fairly inexpensive. I was going to get one if I didn't have enough for an emag. Alot of people say bushmasters are poor man's angels. I have never shot one, although I have shot an RT before. I don't really know that much about bushmasters other than they are raved about in most paintball circles although alot of angel owners seem to look down on them. My suggestion is that if she likes electro triggers(I love them) really check out the bushy, otherwise an RT pro is great because it shoots fast and is easy to take care of.

You do realize the RT Pro with it's 'ok speed' is actually faster than the E-Mag right? *grins*

My parents would never ever dish out a thousand or so dollars for a paintball gun.

As for the RT pro, it's ok and has ok speed. However, if you want a REALLY good marker, get an e-mag. The e-mag's trigger is the lightest there is and you won't have to worry about the restrictions at some tournaments on the reactive trigger, because the e-mag doesn't do that.

If you buy an EMAG from paintballgear.com you get a crossfire compressed air tank for free.

LOL Umm 1 daughter is enough and I love the sport as well, I just wish I get us both on the same team, but that would be way to much cash to shell out, 2 fifths of the total cost. Ill just root for her and let her have fun plus we still play at several fields here in michigan just for fun. You guys are great thanks for the support and help

The RT pro is a great choice for her!!! One of my back guys uses one, and I'm glad that's what watching my back!!! There is little to upgrade and they are bulletproof reliable!!!!

Maybe get her the RT Pro, and let her earn the E-Mag conversion.

My suggestion would be to have her try out as many tourney level markers that she can, whether it be shooting at a chrony station, or preferably playing an entire game. You'll have to kind of steer her away from the Angel owners if you can. They do get pricey and you can get the same performance from many other guns on the market.

Have her try out the RT Pro also. I'm a strong proponent of AGD products, for their durability and reliability. But, if a marker does not inspire confidence, it will take her a little longer to improve her game.

Take also in to consideration the availability of support in your area for the marker you and she ultimately choose. Tournament level markers are an investment, and I'm sure you'll prefer to have that investment in your hands rather than at the shop or manufacturer getting repaired.

And have her try out markers that have on-gun air systems. She may like it. There are 45 cu. in. 4500 psi systems available - smaller and lighter than some. Not sure on how much paint she puts out a game, but I can get at least 700 shots out of my Retro Mag. If she prefers running remote, it is accepted in tourney ball. Linkin got it right...it's all a matter of preference.

get her a a timmy there on sale at firstcallpaintball.com for around 500 or a used angel perhaps

[WickeDKlowN]

i would let her test out a few turny level guns, but make sure she tests out a RT Pro, and a Bushy they are both great inexpensive, durable, light guns that are tourny level

RT would be a great gun but for a 13 year old girl this is the setup i'd have her sporting.
-classic powerfeed
-either a boo-yah but i prefer the hyperframe
-47 flatline or a 47 4500 tank
This gun would be light and fast. RT is good but you really have to muscle the trigger and for tournies my hand gets cramps at the end. It might just be me, she doesnt need to be ripping out as fast as an angel for a novice/young guns tourney. If you wanna spend the money go for it but i think a regular mag would be the ticket. If she didnt like the impulse she prolly wont like the bushy. But it's all up to you. Good luck!!!
