well the marker is what everyone suggested as a good one for beginners. B/c it was easy to use, and is reliable and easily upgradable. Everything else came in a package deal.

I take it your doing more the senerio type? cause that is what that gun is good for. If you were doing tourney PB then you would get one that would shoot alot faster and put out more balls. But it is a realy reliable gun, and for the price you can't beat it. Good luck and have fun..oh and keep your head down. compact is the way to play.

Spalt gotcha!

indestructible my a__. That's what everyone told me. I was just playing around with it and the sliding eye piece snaped off. I don't want to force it back on, so I'll just hang on to it till tomorrow and let someone else fix it.

IF your playing in the woods, i kinda disagree with everyone, DONT move, movement gives you away, "one shot, one kill" you dont need all that paint if your doing "woods" but like RED 85 said, if its tourney your doing, get a faster marker, i loved playing PB in the woods, id like to start up again, even thought about airsoft, but thats another thread, lol. anyways keep your headgear ON, eyes open, and have fun. its a real rush, when your the last person on your team, and the other team has 5 people left, hunting you down, and you walk out alive,

Man what a great time. We get there, and they tell us to chill for a bit. Apparently there is a group of marines coming down and they were going to pair us up against them. Grrreeeeaaattt my first time out and I'm going to get it up by a bunch of proffessional soldiers. They finaly get there (late) and they're a bunch of scrawny kids, at first I was like they're marines? They didn't look like they were even 16 yet. Then I felt kinda bad for them that kids that looked this young are over in the gulf fighitng this war. ........

So the first couple of rounds they take us out in the woods. For most of the guys in our group of sportbike riders, this was our first time out. So we didn't understand what was going on. As soon as I ran out in the field, I was getting shot at from my rear left side. So I was thinking "why are my own guys shooting at me?" But as it turns out, we didn't go far enough onto the field and there was a hill way up on the left side, and they just ran to the top of that hill and were picking us off 2-3 at a time. The next couple of rounds we understood what was going on .. well sort of. The first thing we did was secure that hill. I ran to the top and laid down and started popping off anything that moved. I put three or four rounds into this one guy in a red shirt before I understood that he was screaming at me "I'M A REF" Whoops sorry about that. But then I picked off a three more of the other guys. pretty much we had them wiped out, and there were two behind a bunker, who just wouldn't move. So me and this other guy we took one for the team. We charged down the center while two guys on either side of us just started blasting them every time they popped up to shoot at us.

Around lunch time we switched over to hyperball field. I like this one a lot more. Faster pace, and more strategy involved.

The marker worked wonderfully. I think I will add a response trigger to it, to improve it a bit more. But overall it was a great piece to work with. Can't wait to get out there to do this again. I just wish paint wasn't so expensive. :cry:

awesome buy, tippmans are strong guns i have had one for over 6 years and it is still working perfect. Watch out though like offroading, paintballing can become an expensive hobby fast, especially when you want to get into upgrading your guns.
