Just spent the day ballin' at my local ground for the first time in about a decade and was told to become a member of their club and sign up here for 'in the know'. They considered me pretty adept in game for a beginner so looking for info regards buying my own kit, what I need etc, if anybody can make any recommendations for markers and other gear would be much appreciated. Consider myself quite trigger happy if that mattters.

Thanks!

Thanks! Well I've been looking at something like this http://www.amazon.com/Dye-2013-Proto-Rail-Click-a-Color/dp/B00AQULJHM/ref=pd_sim_sg_5
I don't want to spend an absolute fortune as I'm just starting out as a hobby to be honest and I'm completely new to everything, just turned out I was pretty handy with the rental markers they had on site so they suggested I take it up and pointed me to you guys!

yeah it really doesnt stay as a hobby for long..... especially if your kit is looking at you everyday you wanna get out there and use it

ah a tournie style marker, im not one for giving advice on them tbh but others will be, i use scenario guns.

Ok I think I've made my mind up about this particular marker... What about an Invert Halo Too or Invert Reloader 2 Hopper? Both seem pretty adequate but the Halo is slightly more expensive.

And tank http://www.store.justpaintball.co.uk/3000psi-0-8l-air-system.html

Thanks for your help again!

how much you looking to spend is the better question.

i hear good things baout the halo personally not a fan as i like offset hoppers because of the milsim look, i have read up that its great value for its money, but far as i gather the best is the dye rotor though they are damn expensive. rip clip is my favourite hopper but wont fit that gun you like

the tank is fine, eventually you will wanna upgrade to a 1.1 probably as get more air etc and lighter, but the 0.8 bottles are fine i have one as a spare

*poof* THIS IS NOT A WANTED THREAD

no prob mate happy to help

The Halo Too, is a fine choice. I had one for a fair time.
