for the moment id say go with an ion

and as for the rec to tourny thing being based on experience mate id say choose whether you think you will want to play tourny ball later on..if u go in a total newb then u learn stuff right for tourny ball not right for rec ball...u start from scratch and therefore can program yourself to the game rather than to the 'war orinetated' scenarios in rec...totally different to tourny play i would say

jus a few points :)

My mate bought an ion yesterday, and one of the guys who works down the local site was playing with one, the thing rips. For Just under £200 you get the gun, basically it will run good out the box, and you really are getting alot of gun for the money.

Brand new id look at an Ion, as a starter gun, and it will hold its own against top end markers. And is fully upgradeable, for the price of the next gun up you can get it running on air, with a barrel kit, new feedneck and hopper (at least a Revvy), and warranty and service that goes with new purchases.

Second hand, well look around here, there are some great deals, let people know how much you are willing to spend, and you can get advice accordingly.

Id stay away from the spyders now, so many people started on them and upgraded not long (couple of months) down the line. And with the ION new and great second hand deals about, its never been a better time to get into paintball :D.
