    ...which basically makes it a timmy with an angel body... Granted there's a bit less maintenance, but come on.

      The Immortal viking is up there too.

      With that respect, the Timmy is no better than a spyder other than speed. Same concept, same stacked tubed design. just tons of milling.

      Why are people buying timmies when they can buy a inexpensive spyder that works on the same principals ? :P

      Or a Dragun.

        Take a look at MacDevs new Cyborg. It really looks like a lot of bang for the buck. I'll know for sure when mine arrives tomorrow. I don't buy into a lot of hype and from what I have read they aren't slinging a whole lot. Check out some of the comments on PBNation.

                  check out the new J2s from CCM
                  The official CCM Paintball online store! Paintball gear directly from the manufacturer. USA MADE.


                  As for the Angel speed, i have never shot one but i hear all you need is the soft bolt and volumizers and the thing is awesome. then if you want, you can send it to HK and have was bored put it, and maybe eyes??? not sure about the eyes though.

                  so i would either go with the J2 from ccm, the speed or viking.

                      Actually the Timmy and Spyder do work differently. Not only will a Timmy be faster, have less kick, and look prettier, but it's overral just a higher quality gun. Not to mention you also get the assurance of a quality anti-chop system, a company that fully backs it's product, and everything already put together in a nice neat package (as opposed to a Frankenstiened Spyder with 20,000 upgrades).

                      My personal choices would be:
                      Viking (which do you think looks best?)
                      Matrix
                      Raced Cocker built around an RDL body

Then and only then make a decision based on your own evaluation of each. Your the guy who has to be happy with your purchase. Not any of your buddies.

                          Don't let anyone else influence your decision. Handle the markers you are considering, shoot as many as you can and then and only then make up your own mind!
                          Very well put. It's what you like. The feel of the trigger, the weight, MROF, etc. Don't be influenced by others as they may not have the same likes and dislikes in a gun as you do. For instance a lot of people do not like Angel LCD's but I personally love mine.

                          You could also think of it as how one likes their toast. Some like their's buttered whilst others may not, and some like their smothered in cinnamon sugar and butter. (mmmm....tasty) It's all just a matter of personal taste.

                          I'm craving some cinnamon-sugar toast now.

                            i like the performance of the matrix (saw the vid ) but is there any way to improve on the looks?

                            Viking i'm most likely going to test out in 2 weeks but same goes for the viking - is there anyway to get it to look better?

                              The Matrix will always look to me like and alien head from behind, there's nothing you can do about it. The reason I shied away from them is the guys at our field (realize it's the field that Youngblood most of the field testing) had so many issues with them. They were only able to play for 50%of the day and I'd find that so frustrating. I'd have to hurt somebody.

                              As far as looks I have a few pics of some very sexy Vikings/Excals but I'm computer inept so if you want to see them pm me an e-mail address.

                              On a side note painball is right, go with your personal tastes, cinnamonsugar and butter toast, mmmmm
