i recommend, if u do Tournaments use a DM or Ego, Angel's are good, but need a bit more service and maintainance done to them.

recently sold a Naughty dog shocker as i was looking to down grade due to playing time, but ended up buying two guns (good sales man wicked price)

the new nxt is based on the ND shocker so if it's half as good it will fire ropes all day. my mate has a sft shocker and that also spits beautiful ropes of paint. He put a good 20'000 through it already and only had one problem( he never cleaned it).

other freinds have dm's and pm's and they love em and the dm's i've used have been trouble free.

personal choice, budget and what gun suits you is the best thing to go on. ask if you can fire your mates guns. try as many as you can before you buy.

i personally like the look of dm's and pm's and at the mo with pm7 out and the dm7 on the horizen the prices are really good for the dm5, dmc, pm6 so you could get a really good deal.

just checked with a mate, when we where both at our local site they had a dm5 brand new i couldn't remember how much but he said £350 might have been £360 still a good price.

Don't bother with brand new mate, the 2nd hand market on here is excellent and trust worthy most of the time. DM5's are old hat now, the DM7 is on it's way out and thusly the prices are dropping.

If you are only playing now and then I'd get something fairly maintenance free eg Ego/Angel. The DM family are great but need the bolt lubing after every use and if you're not sure how or can't be bothered it's asking for problems.

Why not just fix your ion?
