    250+ dollars and confused

    Well ive got about 250+ bucks and im confused on which marker i should buy. Im buying it used btw.


    Which marker should i look for for around 300 bucks that would be worth it????? Im looking for an electro pneumatic one that can be highly upgraded for high rates of fire and that i can use for the rest of the time i paintball.

    I was looking at bushies and Imps. Bad thing about BKOs is they newest ones are capped at 18. Im looking for faster than that so i dont need to by another gun. Everyone says imps are utter crap outa the box but then again im used to a tippmann 98.





    So what should i get????????
    Stock BKO (so far)
    68/3k Carbon Fiber Crossfire tank
    Halo B
    woot! :headbang: :headbang:

    I personally would say a used mag, with the hair trigger coming out in the near future, it would be perfect.

      So let me get this straight...

      You're looking for a marker that's:
      - $250-300
      - Electropneumatic
      - Highly upgradable
      - Faster than 18bps

      Well, the thing about BKO's is A) Even though they're capped at 18, they (mechanically) can't fire too much faster and B) You probably won't fire that fast anyway. Even if it could fire that fast, you'd still need eyes otherwise you'll just chop paint. Chances are very good, unless you're going to get a BKO, a cheap used Impulse or a TES, there's really not a whole lot matching that description for that price.

        Get the Imp and since you're going to be upgrading it... at some point stick a new trig and/or frame on there, NDZ internals, and WAS. Then a .692 Ultralite and you're set. Fast, accurate, kickass..

            So your saying you can reach 18 bps? Hah, proove it. 18 bps is fast enough. If you need to shoot that fast, practice more and improve your game. Sounds like a BKO is just what your looking for. You could buy the BKO, then the B2K upgrade kit. Which takes your bko and turns it into a b2k.

              What about a Tribal? They can go for $250-350 or so and some of them have a 20bps chip. Plus they're just plain unique and cool looking.

                you'll have a lot of problems with a tribal if your looking for a gun to use for a long time.

                  In that price range, I'd say bko, you're not gonna shoot faster than 18 anyway.

                    Both Impy's and Bushy's will need work out of the box. The nice thing is that buying used , most of those problems will probably already be taken care of. $300 is a tough range though. Unless you just stumble on a deal you are very limited to what you will find.

                    Something I suggest is looking at a nice mech cocker. I know that cockers can be intimidating but get a mech. Look for the nicest body you can find . The other parts don't matter as much , cause they can be upgraded . As you upgrade and just use the marker you will learn loads about it. Then when you get the cash together , throw an E frame on it , and you have one of the finer markers out there.... And if it turns out you don't like it you should be able to trade it for others markers in its range.

                    I actually put less than $300 into this marker , not including a few parts I already owned. If I include those Its still around $500. I throw on an E frame and its the cats meow....


                    Without these parts I have right at $150 in the marker . I changed the drop and freak back later , but I already owned them too.

                      Get a used 'mag and forget the stupid bps talk. If you could shoot 18 bps you would not have to worry about a $300 gun you would get a sponsor.

                        Ha, u can pull at 18 bps, i would like to see that, and if u can save money for paint casue u are gonna need it. As said earlier go wiht the BKO and you will never need anyting faster then that even if u can pull a trigger that fast, adn if u can work on moving and your style maybe u wont need to shoot hat fast.

                          Just get a used mag and wait for the hair trigger to come out.

                          btw, why are some of you reeming on the kid for sayin he can do 18 bps? Who cares if he can or not. I know i can do 18 depending on the gun. If he was talking about doin 18 on the tippy than hes just crazy but if it was on a nice high end electro with a nice trigger im sure its possible for him to do it.

                            Well, if people read, he never said he could shoot 18bps... he said he wanted a gun that wasn't capped at 18bps.

                              Good point, sorry bout that. I just didnt like people given him a hard time about it. This is AO were nnot supposed to do stuff like that(unless what someone says is totally wrong and the person claims he can do something like shoot 30 bps on a mech mag w/o rapid fire or somethin).
