Quick refresher course please

Heya everyone, i used to play sup air at snetterton. however that was a year or two ago and im looking to get back into it however i have a few problems. Firstly i don't believe their still running are they ? if not where should i be going, i live ely, just outside cambridge.
secondly, i have an EGO 05, well looked after but i have no way of knowing if its still going and planet eclipse say they will not service it unless i buy the parts from america and then send it with the gun, even if its not got any problems. Thats very costly since they believe its solenoid blah blah,
anyway the question is am i better of just getting a invert/Etek or getting something along those lines or sticking with the old EGO.
thanks Mike

the ego 5 is arguably the better gun (ex supergun and such) however if the solenoid is capput it'll likely be a fairly costly fix and there may yet be more problems that you dont know about so take this into consideration before importing parts

however as previously stated it is a supergun so if it works it'll work very nicely

 

[mikepetrs]

the ego 05 was a great gun but do you think if revived, it is really better than something like a brand new etek ?
Plus i still don't have a site to go to, still need ideas please

 

[GRIMLOCK]

ive never used an ego 5 however i do own an etek and it is marvelous and so very reliable and planet didnt get where they are by cutting corners

 

[mikepetrs]

By the sounds of it then and to be honest i was looking for an excuse to get a new gun even though i loved the ego 05, i think an Etek sounds the way to go. I no its a stupid question but its autococker thread aswell isnt it?

 

[GRIMLOCK]

But of course and its got a pretty good stock barrel .693 i believe

eteks are amazing guns

 

[mikepetrs]

Cheers for the advice guys, i think an etek3 LT is the for me, it was either that or the proto reflex, But i have a silly amount of auto cocker barrels so etek it is
