How much confidence does your gun give you?

[Carbon]

I would like to know how much confidence your gun gives you. I currently own an e mag, i am a former classic shooter. I find that my confidence has not changed and am willing to make the same risky and stupid moves ive always did the my E as with my classic.

I just made a post on how much I loved my marker, here it is http://www.automags.org/forums/showthread.php?t=142981

I voted 10 because it has yet to let me down. There is always a ball in the breach. And I never have to worry about breaking balls. All you need is a good head to keep it running and it'll treat you great.

I think when people say that they got a better gun and it gives them confidence can be true, but I think usually you start off with a lower end gun and move up as you go. When you start out you arent a good player, and usually as you get better, you buy better guns. So by the time you get a really nice gun, you are a good player, and you just don't realize it.

well, ill burst out into a bunker that i know im going to have to play really hard and tight to stay alive more often with my timmy then i would a model 98 cause i know that i can generally shoot my way out as long as i have enough paint

Well... I stick by my SFL Emag even if it has been problematic half the time I've owned it... stupid shocktech messing up tolerances...

When its working its awesome... when its being a bit**, its a total *****....

I said 1-3 because I have a 98 custom. Playing speedball is a joke with my friends and I, thay have much lighter, much shorter, and faster shooting guns that me. I love the gun, but I am getting a Tac-One soon so things will be much better

If only AGD would get some dang T1's in stock

Think about it... if you have a spyder as your first gun playing, you're like "ok this is cool, paintball is fun and all." if someone lends you a fully loaded Dm4 you're like "OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE I HAVE THIS GUN IM GOING TO KILL EVERYTHING!"

Confidence is key, the more cocky you are the BETTER you would play versus what you'd normally play.

My first day on sup-air some guy lent me his orracle (this was back when orracles were THE cocker to have, and people were paying 8-900 for them) and I just ran down the field and shot everyone because I thought I could, and I did, I just played hard and well just rolled the other team because I was over-confident and got lucky.

But yeah, If I have a crappy non-working gun I'm not going to play as well because I don't think I can... so in conclusion!

Every gun I have had excluding my old 98c has failed me in some way almost everytime I play. I think I may be in the market for a mag in the near future...

Even though my guns always break, I play with just as much confidence. (I am just really bummed off the field trying to fix the darn thing.)

the only confidenc I have with my 98C is that if it breaks, yeah right those things are built like tanks, I can fix it in under 5 minutes

I guess that is true to some degree. But i think there is a big difference between confidence and cocky. To me, cocky means your dont have enough confidence to keep your mouth shut. And confidence is never having to say how good you are.

I voted for 8-10 because each time I have upgraded my marker, I have gained a little boost in confidence. When I finally upgraded to my 'Mag though, it became a whole 'nother ball game. Now, I don't really have any excuses. No more, "It's the gun, I swear!" While it has given me a boost of confidence, I now am forced to perform. There can be no more hiding behind the marker, so to speak.

[Blazestorm]

Yeah, there's loud-mouth cocky, then theres inside cocky.

You know, you think in your head you're a better player and you'll beat those guys... you usually will if you have that mentality.

Like I say: the better the gun - the better you feel - the better you play
