Best Out of Box Marker?

[FooTemps]

Emag, angels

[paint magnet]

Assuming out of the box includes charging if nessecary, then I'd have to vote for Angels, the L 7 mags and any PPS gun. Maybe a FreeFlow cocker too. There are a lot of other good guns but most at least need a better barrel *cough* Tippmann *cough*

You guys gotta be kidding me. These lower end guns dont require and dropforwardss etc.

A-5

My buddy recently got his Tippman A-5, plugged in air and played no problems. The rest of my buddies were so impressed that they bought theirs at the field (despite my protests, since buying markers at field doesn't qualify as frugal shopping) and played within minutes.

CCI's phantom!!!!!!!

other then needing to be worked in, there is no nicer shooting gun out of the box. need proof? find me aftermarket bits. other then a few (very few) aftermarket barrels, and maybe a regulator. it can't really be upgraded, more like options, not upgrades. and even the stock bareel is pretty gosh darn good, negating, for the most part, the need for another, though paint matching can be difficult.

so there's my vote the phantom, almost unchanged since the start.

cheers

Angels, Cockers, Excaliburs, Vikings...

i'd have to disagree on the aka products, as they have a break in period.. in which they have to be sent back to the factory for tune ups

Actually with the new noids the break in period isn't too long anymore. And you can do the "tune-ups" yourself if you'd like to.

But having ANY breakin period, or having to do ANY tuneups doesnt seem to me like a best-out-of-the-box-marker to me.

I think most high end markers are good out of the box. You really can't go wrong with a viking, excal, x-mag, nyx matrix, angel speed, etc. out of the box... I would say X-mag, but the stock barrel isn't too great...

I played with both my Viking, and my Excal straight out of the box, and never had a single problem with either. Never changed the LPR on either, threw in a battery, added paint and air, and then didn't worry about them.

People make a huge deal about the "break in" period for no real reason.

That being said, my X-mag was the same way.

Best marker out of the box is the CCI Phantom. Mask, paint ,air and fun.

You know, the old splat masters are good out of the box...


You don't need to do anything to those.

hmmm

throw one more in for the CCI Phantom. Sweetest out of the box marker on the planet, not one single bit of effort required.
