i dont know, quite a few, i havent had my own gun for long, all i been doing is trying to help out another guy who doesnt know much.
if your gunan be offensive or anything dont bother please.
i might not know much about paintballing but i know that i love it just as much as you.
and the proflex thing is my opinion you can say what you like about it i dont care to be honest. more important things to think of right now.
im sure the guy appreciates me trying to help!?!?!?!
How are you trying to help by telling him that it's all about how you look? Or that Proflex's hurt when you get hit?
Proflex's are damn good masks, yes there are alternatives that are just as good. But that doesn't make them any less viable, especially as part of a package deal.
My advice would be to look at what you can pick up second hand for a marker and air system though as for the price of a new setup you can pick up a top end marker second hand. I've bought all my markers from these forums and never been sold anything that wasn't as described.
However, for a mask I would definitely buy new. The Proflex's are good, as are V-Force, Dye, Proto and Vents.
No ones trying to be offensive mate, but please, there are a lot of people on these boards with a *lot* of experience. These people are probably in a much better position than you (or me for that matter) to give advice. Just make sure that if you do give someone advice then it's fact. If it's just your personal opinion, then it doesn't matter really does it? Because if your *personal opinion* is that something is crap, doesn't mean that someone elses *personal opinion* is totally the opposite does it?
For example, I personally don't like the Ion. That doesn't mean it's a bad marker, I just don't like the feel of it.
However, if you do like the feel of it and it does everything you want it to, then it's a great marker for the price.
