buying a marker

[bl5720]

I'M LOOKING FOR A FIRST MARKER. I NEED SOME ADVICE. DON'T EVEN MENTION TIPPMAN I'VE BEEN RESEARCHING THE M98 C. YOU HAVE TO THROW AN AWEFUL LOT OF MONEY AT IT TO GET IT UP AND RUNNING. I'M LOOKING FOR SOMETHING THAT'S DECENT OUT OF THE BOX. THE TIPPMAN MAY BE INEXPENSIVE BUT I DON'T WANT TO PAY ANOTHER $100 JUST SO I CAN HIT WHAT I SHOT AT.
I'M LEANING TOWARD PMI'S STS G3. ANY IDEAS?

the sts is good for a started, but keep in mind a spyder tl plus as well...both of those are very good starter guns

Any kingman spyder gun will do. Just fit one that you like into your budget and you can always upgrade. Great starter and very easy to use and maintain. And remember the oil.
