Ego 05 - http://www.p8ntballer-forums.com/vb/showthread.php?t=112367

PM7 - http://www.p8ntballer-forums.com/vb/showthread.php?t=112529


All seem to be in good con.

This will be my first Gat, I need one that is easy to maintain, reliable and decent marker. I'll be using it for training and also hopefully entering some tourneys next year! Please give me some advice really cant make mind up because all are great Gats

The Etek 1 would be my preference. It's a basic version of a modern ego and it can be upgraded very easily in the future, so you can have all the bells and whistles you would have with an 07 or 08. You'll be hard pressed to find a more reliable electronic marker, and eclipse are awesome with customer support!

The Ego 5 is another great marker, very similar to the Etek, and planet will look after you just as well. You have the benefit of an LCD screen on an 05, so it will be easier to setup than an Etek (which uses combinations of LEDs)

I've never owned a PM7, but proto make a good product. You may have to do a fair bit more reading to maintain a PM7 than an etek or ego5 as a spool valve marker takes a bit more TLC to run well.

Thanks for the great advice, I really do like the PM7 it is a beautiful gun it is also it is in the condition out of the three. I really cant make my mind up but it should be soon

roll a dice 1/2 etek 2/3 ego 05 4/ PM7 is roll again

as the man says etek or ego every time once setup very hard wearing and little to go wrong,a few of the lads we play with run pmr and the most common problem is the battery wire keeps breaking off just my 2 pence worth

I'd take the etek1. I've replied to your newbie thread explaining why, but in short it performs very well and is reliable and easy to maintain, and it's a little less blocky than the ego5. For reliability, you can't beat eclipse imo.

Id go with the PE guns over the Spooly PM7 anyday

etek all the way hardly anything goes wrong with them and if something does you get great tech suport from eclipse

Thanks for all the great advice. I beleave that the everyone has nuthing but praise for the ETEK so I think im pushing over to that side. Has anyone got any ETEK's for sale like different colour. Even though you lot are saying PM7 is not good, I really do like the style and how the condition is. But I trust everyone's advice.

Can you check the conditions above also post here if you know anyone who is selling a decent ETEK
