Egos = the working mans machine gun

Angels = havent figured out egos are the best uk gun yet

standard shockers = cheap fast thrillseekers

pl shockers = rich fast thrillseekers

ions = noob cannon or WCU player

tippmans = first gunners, in about 3 hours they realise they want an electro

dm/pm = think they are connoisseurs but really they just like orings

cockers = stuck in their ways / pretending they dont need/want to upgrade

mags = cos someone on fat bobs had one once

matrix = will try anything

pumps = stuck in the 80s

im sensing a lot of hate here.
and an ego maniac
 
Timmies = Americans, or Brits who wish they were.

Brand new Egos (PL or not)= crowd follwers with too much spare cash

Second hand egos/05s and the like = people who like to profit off the crowd followers

Angels(new) = people who like to play with the packaging more than what's inside.

standard shockers = people who like to be suprised by their gun, whether it will work today or not.

pl shockers = people who think using a Dynasty shocker automatically makes you a player on dynasty.

ions = for the noob yes, but also for the experienced player who can see the pros and cons of a gun without clouded judgement.

tippmans = people who want to be able to use their gun as a club if things get physical

dm/pm = people who cant tell when a gun is made in mexico

cockers = in a previous life, most cocker owners worked in mills on massive sewing machines.

mags = for people who have reliability as their number one requirement

matrix = plumbers

pumps = retro lovers

hybrid = its cheaper and looks better if you glue tinfoil to your gun.

mini= high stakes gamblers

impulse = scrap metal merchants
Fixed. ;)
