Whats a Good Backman Gun?

[Altimas]

What makes a gun a good back gun? And what are some suggestion for one?
Would an 03 Shocker Vision be a good one or an Impulse Vision?

Was'd timmy

Get whatever one you like. The best advice is to go out and see if you can test either or. Find which one will work best for you and let you lay down the most paint. Both Imps and Shockers shoot fast, and with the eye chopping shouldn't be a factor to worry about. Just see if you can try both out and decide from there.

get something without vision. get a good ace system, and something that isnt going to chop on you. The vision system is found to be not as good as it should be. Get something with break beam eyes, because i know, i dont like having to deal with breaks when playing back, it can allow some one else to get an angle on me when im trying to squeegie.


I would reccomend an aced trix. Super fast, and with ace, and the trix's legendary softness, you shouldnt really ever chop or break a ball.

with a timmy, the bolt is still fast enough and forcefull enough to break a ball, trix this isnt a problem.

the shocker 03 is also really freekin inefficient. the trix has this by a long shot, and even with the stock kit, is much more efficient then the 03.

trix + 88ci

ULE X valved RTP w/ Intelliframe or Ygrip

Light weight, no chops, very fast, nice trigger, uber reliable and backed by AGD...need any more reasons?

Matrix with Evolve bolt kit, tadao board, 14in Pipe barrel kit, hybrid trigger frame, Sidewinder reg, SCM and a 72 ci peanut tank. That's my setup, minus the evolve, hybrid trigger frame and SCM, but I'm getting them soon. It's really a great gun for every position, and if you get it milled, it will be light too. With all those mods expect around 2100 shots from the 72ci.

DM4, NYX, Featherlite Viking, Alias Initimidator.

"Vision" is a IR eye system. It sux.

[Automaggot68]

A good backman marker? Dude, just get something that shoots really, really fast. Dont forget your pods!

[USAF-Flyboy with a Mag]

I would say anything very fast and some what efficient. Viking, Timmy, Matrix, X/Emag (software upgrade), Eblade Cocker, Shocker...etc.

[joshweinerhead]

i have a 2k3 vision impulse .. and i honestly dont ever use vision ..

get a trix

they are super fast

At this point in time, just about any mid-class to high-class marker is going to work fine. With almost every electronic marker able to "shoot 30bps" or whatever, the devil is the details.

Don't worry about speed, worry about other options. Do you want an ACE system? How mechanical are you? Do you want a vert or a 15* grip frame? Which marker do you like the sound of?

Honestly, I think that today's mid-range markers can compete with the top-range markers. An example is Team Bad Company, which has been hella consistent using Spyders against the top of the top.

My recommendations are:

Race Bladed Hybrid Quest
AGD eMag
Evil Omen (I love mine)
OGI T.E.S

[dyst0pia]

Viking or Excalibur perhaps?

[penguinpunk555]

NYX trix

[angelbeast24]

my dye trix is soo nice able to rip ropes with an ace system low pressure almost everything u could want in a gun only down side to this is its heavier than most guns not that much tho u get use to it.
