Help on new marker

[John C]

Try before you buy, its all personal preference.

Sure some impy look bling but when you pick it up you realise they are a cheap marker for a reason.

For example the eye is a refelective type not a break beam, this means you can have problems with the eye not working with certain types of paint.

Plus the gun is too tall from where you hold it to where it fires, theres no denying that. This translates into more momentary force from the gun when it fires.

So i guess im just an idiot then

but on the other hand, i could get a real nasty ass marker for 500-600 bucks. hm..

any other suggestions?

Buy from a tech, as they will guarantee the markers they sell are in good working order. Most angel tech's have angels for sale.

What i was trying to say before was that a lot of people will be very opinionated towards their own marker, and this leads to people saying it's the best thing since sliced bread OR saying it's crap because they don't own one. If you have an intelligent opinion about a marker you tend to say 'it's good beacuse of X, Y and Z, but it does have downpoints A, B and C'


I just tend to find a lot of uninformed desicions based upon what marker they own, and while i can understand it in the case of sponsorship, it's really annoying otherwise

No probs, a "tech" is a person trained by the manufacturer to repair their markers.
We are the guys that fix all the wrongs in the world, well at least in the paintball world.

smart Parts is the only teching facility for their guns, i believe. I've approached them but they haven't given me a date for a course.
