Same Old Question of Which Marker???

[LiquidPerry801]

I will buying a paintball gun today for my christmas present from some of my family. I have played paintball in the past so im not a complete n00b, but close enough I suppose. My price range caps around $300, including the neccesary gear (mask, tank, loader etc.). I could probably swing something if a much better gun and gear package were to be like $300-350, but it would need to be worth getting into **** over spending the extra money on my grandmas credit card (I'm 19 in case anyone's wondering). These are the guns I've been looking at/thinking of getting:

JT 5.0
Spyder E-99
Spyder Flash
Tippman Pro/Carb
XP Piranha Pro EXT-E


Thanks,
Perry

{forgot some stuff)

I think thats about it but you guys who know prolly get the idea from that list. Also, I just thought of something. My birthday is only about 20 days after christmas so if there is a gun and gear setup that would be about $450 to $500 at the absolute most, and its something I really really aught to buy because I plan on getting serious about paintball, then i could probably swing it. Let me emphasise though, it would need to be absolutely completely neccesary. If not then lets just concentrate on the guns and price range I listed above. Sorry if this seems too long winded, but i want to buy something I'm going to be happy with for while. Too many times have wanted to get into a hobby, and I've gone it on my own with buying the stiff to start, out only to find out I got the WRONG stuff. I plan on buying today so any help ASAP would be greatly appreciated.

If you are still reading, then thanks for taking time to help an enthusiastic n00b.

Thanks,
Perry

no you don't need ful auto,a decent semi will fire quicker anyway .i personally would get a new autococker or a automag,or why not get a decent second hand deal and save a lot of money ie immpy,matrix,angel,timmy or a bushy all proven markers and quick as well .theres loads of deals on these

Where do you play front, mid or back?

Have a look at the bushmaster BKO. Its an electronic non-blowback marker which will cost you about $280 new. Which will leave you plenty of cash for a new barrel, mask etc.
