Machine Vapor buying advice

[Pebbles]

Hi all, I've been offered a machine Vapor and know nothing at all about them. Is there anyone that can help?
Cheers

Only on the market for a short time - build quality wasn't up to much and they didn't sell too well. If CHEAP, maybe worth a punt...

About as reliable as the UK railways, as useful as an art degree and with the build quality of a French car. You would be better off throwing your paintballs wrapped in £5 notes than trying to shoot one.

Depends. If it's the second version they were quite good tbf. The first version was so awful no one would give the second the shot it deserved.

I always ask myself the same question when buying any gun....

If I had no other guns to use and was looking for a gun to reliably get me through a few years then would I buy it over any of its competitors at the same price.

This question takes into account such things as a guns reliability, ease of spares, knowledge of techs in the UK, how the gun compares in shot quality and efficiency against it peers, and if the gun will retain some good resale value in at least two years time If the answer is yes to this then I buy it if not move on.

Thanks guys, I'll give it a miss then. I usually shoot Planet so I'll stick with them. Can't fault the reliability of Planet

Not cheap enough to risk it for me. Cheers Kevin.
