GOOD now DONT get co2 unless your site only supplies co2.
if they supplie both get an air tank.

its much better on electros.
much more consistant.
and ALOT better on the internals of your gun, oh and your gun wont freeze up with air.
you can get a 2nd hand steely tank of here for the smae price of a new co2 tank. or if you can reach deeper into those pockets of yours you might be able to buy a fiber wrap tank.
just incase you dont know what that means its a air bottle which is alot lighter than a steel tank and holds more air.

oh and lv, dont you mean vl??

good luck

Yea, Your best bet is to take advice form these guys-The exsperts! As I hate to say LOL..
I was in you situation, few months ago... I spent hours on end looking at sites.. browsing stuff. And I was originally thinking of just walkons/rec ball. But then, now got into speed ball. A marker I still have/Selling next week is a SmartParts Vibe.. Another good thing the Vibe and SP1 both run on either CO2 OR HPA! You could look at that, goood starter marker, or the SmartParts SP1-Woodsball design They are about £90.. So well in your price range.. Plz dont stinge on mask! It's the thing that will protect your bea utifull face!! Thats the one thing not to go budget on!. But some people may disagree..on the marker side.. Untill you really want to upgrade.. when you know you will play for a while.. My 2 cents.. P.S. Planet Eclipse... Are Incredable markers-Guns! Im getting a Etek2 Now becasue of sponsor's. Enough of me! lol... Hope my input helps...;)

Um, I personally have never seen/Used one.. so not really my bag to comment. But in my opinion, I would have a look at the Vibe And SP1. There are some good techniqual vidoes of them on Youtube. But it's my 1st marker and I have 0 Complaints. As im now getting a diffrent marker next week. But If you can wait maybe week or 2. I could sell you mine for a special deal... But yea.. look at the vibe and SP1 There both identical.. SP1 in a more woodsball looking gun. And Vibe is more Sup air designed... Exactly same internals ect...

Like Sumo said, Spyders aren't great in general. I had a rubbish marker as my first (JT Excellerator), and it was enough to get me into the sport. You, like me, will probably find after a very short while that you'll want to upgrade at which point I suggest listening to the people on here. Also, I'll second Mackem's comment that you ought to tidy up your grammar and spelling: We make the effort to reply with advice, a small amount of effort in return is always appreciated. I would definately try to run your marker on HPA (air) unless you absolutely have to run CO2. It'll freeze up your o-rings and generally make your marker a pain in the ass to play with (especially in winter). Glad you're into the sport anyway mate, you don't need an amazing marker to play in the woods so just enjoy yourself. That's what it's all about :)

air is just better for the eletric guns and air is better money over time as 1 air bottle can be filled over and over for up to 20 years but you will need to test the bottles every 3 or 5 years. Co2 runs out and you generally need to buy a new co2 tank worth bought £20 after everytime you go (depending on how many balls you shoot)

hope that helps :)
