Which of the guns in the subj. is the best for the money. I have posted this before and i know its annoying but if people would answer and look at other polls it would REALLY help. Ive looked at reviews but no one is specific!! Please help me! Please post a reply on why you voted the way you did, and be specific.

yo man, i posted the same question and most of those picks. I'm going with the Xtra because #1.) STS G2 is an awsome gun but its hard to find good barrels for piranhas. #2.) the G2 commando is an awsome looking gun with the stock and all... but i bet its a cheap gun and your paying 2/3 of the cost just for the stock. the xtra has vertical feed drop forward and all that fancy stuff so im going with it, good luck on finding something better:)

the barres on pirahnas are the same as spyders-so thats the same, but stillget xtra becasue stock xtra barrel is just like my boomer, the vert feed, rear cocking, x chamber and grip are all good

I would pick either the Spyder or the PMI. But markers are good for the price. The performance, parts, etc. are very similar. So, most of it is prefernce and cost. Your decision.

Which one do you like better?

Xtra
My friend just got one and it rocks! I wish I would have gotten it but I got my gun before the Xtra came out!

Piranahs take the same barrel threads that spyders do. At least i think they do

yes your right the piranhas take the same barrels. i would take the commando if it had a spyder Xtra stock barrel. they are very accurate. the commando has a stock and a full size expansion chamber unlike the spyder "mini" expansion chambers

GT Commando 2's take Spyder barrels as well. I love it, and you're not paying 2/3's for the stock, I assure you, It is a VERY good gun.

Dont get a GT Commando because Avalon is out of business so your gonna be screwed.... Rebels are awesome I have one and it works great it never chops or anything if you use decent paint.... brass eagle will chop in any gun... if you get a rebel all you gotta do is upgrade the barrel (spyder threads) and you are all set.... good gun

and box lid calls ME dumb?


Go for the Piranha. EVERYTHING besides bolts and gripframes from the spyder fit it, but IMO its a better built gun, better trigger pull, very good stock barrel, nice regs(if you buy the high end model)


dawgs712, sorry, but your stock barrel is far from the quality of a boomy.

I would get the Xtra or else a high end Piranha. I had a Rebel LE and that thing would chop paint bad. I am not talking barrel breaks. The bolt would chop any kind of paint (marbs, blaze, team colors, competition). I used that all. The Rebel ended up breaking so I said screw it and I got the Spyder Xtra. The stock barrel on the Xtra is very good for a stock. If you get a Piranha get a G3. Those rock.

All the guns listed in this poll are blowbacks, so I'm moving this thread to the blowback forum. I know a lot of you new players have a lot of questions about markers, and I promise you, I'm not moving these threads because I'm mean, but because you'll find more people willing to answer your quesions in the blowback forum.

thanks,
