as far as i can tell the JT looks the best, i'm runing on a JT 5.0 now. my freind took it to a tourney (tournament) as a backup and he said it was brilliant for the price you are paying. the only bad bit is that you break balls pretty often in it, about 2, or occasionaly three per thousand, depending on conditions. it is VERY easy to strip, and so you should have no problems there.

A spyder E-99 is illegal in the UK, as only semi auto markers are legal, and you would certainly not be able to us it at any insured feilds or tournaments.

flash classics are a nice enough gun, but the bolts do stick quite a bit.

if you got a JT, get the 5 with a new barrel, either a boomstick or a dye excell. you should only need a 12v revolution hopper, and these are about half the price of halos or similar ones.

i have never had the experience of playing with a dragun, and so can't comment on this.

Well, that makes it easy for me. :)

You mention above about considering a Halo hopper. To be honest, with the markers you are considering there is no need to pay out about a ton for one rather than an X-Board revvy, the revvy can keep up with all the ones you listed & will cost you significantly less. Halos are only worth it if you are a paint monster (like me) who intends to shoot over about 12-14 bps, otherwise the cheaper hoppers will keep up fine.
Thanks! Really appreciate the help.
I'll look into the 'X-Board revvy' hopper.
Cheers

Decision?

Well, due to your numerous helpful posts. I have decided to get the Dragun Marker. Affordable for this newbie and *apparently* easily maintainable.

I would like to thank you all for your help and helping/guiding me towards the right direction.

Lastly, since the Dragun does not come with a foregrip. (is that the correct term?) The part that you would support your marker with that free hand of yours.

Would it be possible to get one and attach it?

Again, Thanks a bunch!

Basically it feeds the last few balls in the hopper quicker.
