Bt4 will last a lifetime solid little gun my first was an omega it was pretty good. Very good starting point but don't spend much on upgrades etc because it'll end up good but not as good as something else at the same price. Looking at buying another myself just for fun. Alot of players start out with a simple gun because its simple you have to start somewhere. If its to be used on rental days keep it well maintained stick an affordable barrel on it and a force fed hopper, rip clip was ideal for me and you'll have a great advantage over them for little money and that'll hold up enough at walkons or big games to get you started
