      I'd save $150-$200 more and get a used Viking. I have a feeling it will trump both of those markers . And if you want the most out of your tank fill, AKA markers don't hurt.

          actually, i hate to suggest it, but save another 150, and buy an adrennaline impulse from www.buypb.com (under the sales or clearence section) and have on extremely hot marker

              i have dealt with imps and I will suggest that you Not get one. One reason being that the impulse is losing value like the shoebox shocker did when the 03 shocker came out. People can not get rid of them, I have one for 300 with a max flo that will not go away. I luckily sold a beautiful "pimp it' custom" vision imp with N2 tank, evo2, vert/max flo, and SP Lpr for $500.
              I also do not like vision, that eye is too easy to break, and even when it works right it isnt nearly as good as breakbeam. the impulse is a tall gun, not the best balance. And aftermarket manufacturers are not focusing on imp stuff anymore...

              500.00 is a lot of cash, you should stay with a top of the line used gun like a matrix, you will be a lot happier. -try matrixowner- but if you must buy new then get a freestyle or the new b2k5.

                    I went with an Eblade 'cocker. It suits me just fine. I personally do not like angels. I don't think stock Impulses are good by any stretch. Intimidators, Matrixs, base Vikings/Excals, and Emags can also be found in that price range. I've never owned a Bushmaster, but I did havea BKO which had a nice feel, but it never worked since I bought it broken. The LPR was a pain, I'd rather have no LPR at all in the BKO's case.

                      Eblade cocker eh?

                      Well crap, I thought I had it narrowed down. I'm going to look into eblades and find out what I can, but the b2k5 is looking the best so far.

                          Heh, you've been here I take it? I got the beer thing covered, maybe that;s why I can't afford a 1000 dollar gun.

                            i say defiantly go with the b2k5 ive used many imps, and it was a waste of time, even with vision i spend more time cleaning my barrel then shooting

                              Yeah, I was there for a few months. All I could think about the whole time was shooting down that freakin spy blimp. What ever you settle on getting, use it to shoot down the spy blimp.

                                How about a used DM3/Dye Matrix? I've seen them in the $450 range used... it's got DM4-style performance in a less attractive package.
