Out of those 3, I'd go for the ETEK, purely out of cost. But for woods ball. Never used any so cannot give feedback. Have you looked at the Empire Axe or Mini. Bear in mind they have a new mini out called the Mini GS.

Big budget... Empire dfender

Have a look at the BT delta elite. Can pick one up for around 120, it's got an e grip and an electronic feed.
Maintenance is really simple and the gun itself is bulletproof and almost impossible to break.

Of the listed the etek, it'll give you years of service with little fuss, I always seem to see people maintaining dye markers as much as playing with them at walk ons.

Dam or dfender at that budget. Give just paintball a call they do both and will
Advise you as much as possible to your needs

If If that's your first purchase I'd love to see your second. Dam is tad different to the others though. Personally I'd start cheap like a Mini or an old dm9 or something. You won't lose any money if you don't like them.

Before I give my opinion on markers I have one request. Stop using txt spk and actually write things out properly. It doesn't exactly take that much more time to type "you" instead of "u", or "be" instead of "b".

Anyway, little rant over, on to markers. Personally I would avoid anything specifically tailored towards woodsball, which rules our all milsim style markers and the DAM. Simple reason being that there is no advantage to them for woodsball and all it does is limit you purely to that, whereas if you buy a tourney style marker then you can play both without a problem. Even if for now you only want to play woodsball it still leaves you with the option to try the other format without having to worry about getting more new kit.

Well that was a fast ban lol

I dunno, but for me woodsball player need more realistic gun, like tippmann 98, a5, x7 or BT delta and so on. Its easy to maintance these guns. They dont fear dust, rain and so on..
