This is the only gun that is great, but all other BE guns break the day you buy them, On the stingRay I changed my velocity and it broke:sad:
I think my pump mag could kill a blade any day.

I Hate the masks that they supply for newbs, they make them think that paintballs are suppose to harm you when you get hit in the mask.

Stop BE Bashing

Brass Eagle guns are awesome heres why; Rugged, dependable, don't break easily, made by the best company out there. You guys should go to the talon owners group sometime youll be impressed.

The only thing wrong with my talon is that the pump handel snapped after pumping too fast, but I haev a 'parts' talon..

I used to hate BEs low end semis. They used to blow O-rings and spew CO2 all over and crap. Or the bodies would break or the bolt pins would snap.

But back then (1998ish) there was next to nothing in those price ranges so they did serve to bring paintball to the not so rich.

Today in my house there is a Blade 2, Talon, and Rainmaker.

They all receive a fair amount of play, though in all fairness not by me. My girl stole my RM (hey when a hot chick wants to play you'll tend to cave in and give her most anything)

Our roommate uses the Blade, and my chick also uses the talon in pump games.

I have been happy with all of the guns I have. But I am also not expecting angel quality out of the talon or blade. If they break in a year no biggie. The talon is 4 years old, and still shoots wicked straight.. but only for a little while since it cronos in at a mad 210ish

*Edit* I have seen many more problems out of the old spiders then I have outta BE.

RM's are cool, to bad they stopped making them to make other craptacular markers!

Okay, I'm not as gung-ho a BE defender as Kevmaster, but I do have a few things to say.

The first gun I ever played with was a talon. It was me against my friend, he had a pair of talons, some 12 grams, and like 500 rounds or less of (I'm almost positive it had to have been) BE paint. BE is the reason I still play paintball today, 3 years later.

Can Brass Eagle compete with AGD or the like for most people on these boards? No. They are aimed at beginners, producing pumps AND semis for people looking to get into the sport. When I went from that talon to a Stingray, it was like finding Jesus in my life. BE hooked me, and kept me in, because I wasn't willing to pump in the cash for some seriously good paintball gear before I knew if I'd even stay interested in the sport.

And yes, I still own that Stingray.

Props to BE

In my mind, BE serves only one purpose (and does so quite well). This purpose is simple: Marketing our sport.
They are the first, and most prevalent of only 3 brands of markers available at Wal*Mart: BrassEagle/Viewloader/JT, Spyder, and Tippmann. They bring their products to customers that otherwise would not know of paintball (and while doing so, they provide ample information on the necessary safety precautions of our sport). I feel that right now, this is the best marketing platform for our sport. Sure, the late Maurice Gibb did worlds for our sport, as have other celebrities. Their actions are just as necessary for the sport as safety awareness. For that I deeply respect them. But in the growing world of paintball, one thing becomes more and more obvious: The majority of players are younger (in their early teen & pre-teen years). This market, sad to say, doesn't know or care about who Maurice Gibb is or what he does*, they're just kids.
On the other hand, I feel that the quality of their products in recent years has greatly diminished. As such, I pray that once BrassEagle is successful in bringing new players to the field, as the players grow in the sport, these players realize that there is much better equipment out there that doesn't break down nearly as often.


*note: While I'm not saying that the actions of celebrities like Maurice Gibb are in-effective (not only do I fell they are effective, but necessary to the growth of our sport in the real world), I'm simply saying that BrassEagle is in a better position to market the world for the paintball industry.
