Hi im new to this

[scott_peters]

It depends mate what your after performance wise each and every marker shoots different and weight and so on.

I perosnally have never used one but have seen them used and they are nice but my prefernce is i wouldnt buy one as i prefer egos but you might not ??

The UltraLight frame well i dont know to be honest guessing by the name it makes it lighter ? lol

there good markers looks nice too

what other markers you found intresting

also for the same price as them you could get an ego 05 doubt it but just maybe a 06 second hand on here

The ultralight frame doesnt make it lighter it gives it a different set up.

PMR are great set ups one of the best if not the best starter marker, the marker you get for the price is immense.

I'm biased because I own one, but a second hand etek is the best value for money (imo) that I've seen for a new guy. They're fantastically simple to maintain and will compete at pretty much any level. It really is down to personal preference though, and PMRs are a bargain even new. Like others have said, try to get your hands on some diff. markers and see what makes you go "oooooooh" in your pants.

Sorry mate, but i don't really think you're helping. That sentence makes no sense whatsoever.

to the OP, you really need to try out some markers for yourself to see how you like them. It's easy to base everything on looks here, and you might end up with something you're not at all happy with.

If you plan on just playing walkons, my advice is to get a pair of goggles (mask) first and renting a setup until you find a marker you like. You should really try some goggles on for yourself, some of the major brands to look out for are events (or avatars), vforce grillz, vforce profilers, dye invision 3's (abbreviated to I3) or the JT flex series. I would recommend buying new for goggles, but the rest of your gear is fine to buy second hand. I just don't trust my eyes to the previous owner of the mask and what he/she might have done to the lense.

Also is there any teams in around my area?

Hey mate, yes there are teams in the area. There's us, the Snakes in the Grass, the Warpigs & WCU in Wolves, the Urban Assasins in Coseley, loads more just can't think of them off the top of my head.

The PMR is a great gun! I had one and always regretted having to sell it. It's stupidly light, fast, easy to use, uses a bit more gas than I like but still brilliant. The Etek, if you can get one, is brilliant. Only problems I've had with it are down to me being too dim to remember to lube it

What are you looking to play, tourny, woodland, walkons? All of the above?

Where abouts in Staffs are you mate? We're based in and around Stafford.

 

[scott_peters]

Put up a wanted thread mate with an amount you want to spend and see what you get offered !

 

[X.P.L.I.C.I.T]

scott ill do that.

and to ListerOfSmeg

im based in stone

is there another name for the pmr? as i searched it and didnt pick any thing up

 

[LtPurcy]

Sorry mate, but i don't really think you're helping. That sentence makes no sense whatsoever.

Opps sorry about that i was typing really fast because i was going out

what i was saying is, if your lucky you may be able to pick up an ego 05 for around the same price as a brand new pmr (ive seen brand new pmrs from £150 to £250 in different places)
