"Nickyboy - If you had nothing but trouble, did u approach the seller - also as far as im aware you fire a cocker right - i think thats end of discussion really on cockers- cockers aren't always set up correctly even from Factory - Even most custom markers are set up by mass.
As paintball markers don't hold their value, it would be in your interest to buy 2nd hand -that way you dont lose 1/2 as much when selling on - find a buddy that knows about the marker your about to buy so if things do go tits up you know someone who can sort it"

What I mean't was that baically I regret it. I wish I had bought a marker with a shop I could have taken it back to, as when you buy things 2nd hand, you buy them like they are. Who does 2nd hand returns?
Plus my problems stem from an old body, cos I bought a 2nd hand marker no idea of manufacture date. I didn't really know what to buy, like this dood, and when I bought a fancy barrel system it didn't fit on my old body. Not a problem if I'd thought about how complex these markers are to a new person and bought a brand new, shop supported model.
This guy is new he says. He wants one that works. period.
Ego's etc hardly lose they're value so thats crap and so do all the flash new markers.
And why would he be selling his brand new first ever marker in a year, it's his first marker and will always be special. At least till it looks crap which is years down the line with the fancy new models out today.
Someone new to any sport does not change they're equipment every 6 months like some people on these forums do. He wants something reliable, that he can learn to shoot with, and a shop he can get good support from.
Or so I imagine he wants......
