Good Wal-Mart marker for under $200?

I would go for the Pirrahna given the experience I've had with Evil's Cust Service (PMI).. They ROCK.. Just get a good anti-siphon and an expansion chamber and the CO2 should be fine.

AHHH! I really wouldnt want to have to buy a Spyder just to fit one on it. Anyway, PM me with a price.

I would go with the Spyder. PMI has better customer service, but Kingman has a better product. I run a paintball shop and sell both Spyders and Pirahnas to date I have had EVERY Pirahna I have sold returned because it didn't work right where as I have only had one Spyder come back and that was just a cup seal problem. The Pirahna problems are mostly in the Valve itself or in the E-grip sear.

When I ran my buddies shop/field 4 years ago, every Spyder we sold broke down, or just broke, after about a case ran through it. We had base Piranhas as the rental fleet, never broke down. Actually, one or two did need valve work. But 2 out of 20 or so ain't bad...........

Tyrion if you insist on pushing your Dragun stuff at least know your products... You can't install a ONE kit in a Piranha as they use "fatty" strikers. The ONE kit requires a "slim" striker model, i.e. Spyders/Draguns. Some older spyders also had fatty strikers which would make them incompatible also.

Yes haha someone got him YES

You might also consider a Mokal Fokus package.

It is a spyder clone, but has no plastic parts.
Even the grip frame is all aluminum.
Extremely durable construction.
Takes most standard spyder upgrades (barrels, etc.), but has "regular" mounts (inline holes) for drops and rails, and comes with spare rings and instructions.

Action Village / Paintballgear.com has been running specials on them for months, and it's not a bad gun.



I've bought and given away several as "starter" guns, for local new players. Never had a problem with them.


They also have an e-frame version (the EVX, a sear tripper) for under $120, but I have no experience with it, only the mechanical versions.
