Thinkin about my next marker

[robdamanii]

Just got my IR3, now it's time to think about my next marker.

I'm compiling a list, and willing to save for it for a while.

X-Mag
Race Halfblock Cocker
Viking
Nexus cocker
Upped E-Orracle
Some kind of timmy (maybe an Alias)
DM4
Thunder Vision Impulse or Rat Impulse

Opinions of one or the other? I'm leaning towards the X, Race, or viking, with the E-orr in a distant 4th.

i believe I have shot a race cocker, I know my teammate has one, but I can't remember if it was his I shot or his another ebladed cocker.

If you got the cash I think I would say go wtih the race halfblocked cocker, those things are DAMN beautiful!!!

besides keeping it in good working order, I would have no qualms about getting one!

Have you considered the Cyborg? It is a really sweet marker for the money. It is light, extremely efficient, has eyes and is very easy to maintain. Just a thought.

I say go for a Phantom. Light weight, super accurate, and it'll help your game alot. Play with the pump all the time in practice and rec, and when you grab your Angel in tournaments, you'll have both a high ROF, and increased skills from playing with a pump.

Go for it.

the nexus eblade, raced halfblock cocker, or an alias i would say get. they are very nice marker, looks and performance. The DM4 is also a great gun, but to me it gets boring after a while, you can't do anything with it. it has already hit its peak. i like being able to upgrade my guns and do stuff to them.

Already got one

I hadn't considered the cyborg, I'll have to look at it.

i would consider going with the cyborg or a viking and you know you are geting great quality productsa from macdev

X-Mag - I feel that it is over priced for what you get.
Race Halfblock Cocker - Nice. Make sure it has eyes. Only caution is that i believe race frames are no longer supported in the US
Viking - Fast, nice. No longer made though, that might be an issue for you.
Nexus cocker - Very very expensive.
Upped E-Orracle - Nice, just be sure you like the feel of eblades. Some people do, some dont.
Some kind of timmy (maybe an Alias) - Timmys own. If you get an alais, make sure its a newer one, as the first batch seem to chop pretty badly.
DM4 - Pretty nice, light, pretty good speed, but expensive
Thunder Vision Impulse or Rat Impulse - Rat impulse is probably the best impy for the money. Theyre very nice.

Ok, so what I'm hearing is that the viking, the race halfblock, timmy and cyborg are all really worth looking at?

So a viking is around 1K
A half block is about 1.4K
alias or ND timmy is about 1.2K or 1.4 K
cyborg is ?????

Any other info or sources to look at these suckers?

[felony]

cyborg is found is circa 1000. A little bit less I believe. It comes with a gladiator inline and matchstick barrel. if it is the kit, then that is awesome, but still a good deal

paintballkingdom.com may have some.

Not real fond of the cyborgs looks.

Vikings would have to be milled which would cost more yet.

Perhaps I'm on the path of a nice freeflow upped E-cocker/race cocker, Xmag or Alias.

[steveo356]

im alot liek darkling

i love my phantom


its cost effective (only around 200 bux) as well as yopu wont rip through ammo
reliable nto real timing issues like cockers no batterys like the dm4


but i dooo love them dm4s they fast n the milling grows on ya

[robdamanii]

I've already got an acid blue VSC phantom, so that's not really an option.

The DM4 did indeed cross my mind, but I've never laid my hands on one. I've seen them in person and they are very hot looking, but I'd have to at least dry fire it first.

if i could afford it, id pick up a half block, or borg

[Evil1]

How about an 03 shocker? They are alright. All of my friends have no problems with theirs. I have had a few with mine, but now it has been good. I also heard that the new SP HE bolt is awesome.
