Yea okay, I am back. Here are the 6 I can't decide from:
E-Orracle
Nightkast
Strange Vision Impulse
Freak Factory Impulse
Shocker 2003
Angel SPEED
WHICH ONE IS THE BEST!!!!???
Here is what I want:
I don't have a fast trigger finger yet. I want a really accurate gun, but also one that will be able to shoot pretty fast. One that has a low operating pressure for a flatter shooting ball. One that is consistent. One that will be more fun than hassle, I don't want a gun that could be severely damaged if I am not sure what I am doing. I want one that is reliable. I want one that is balanced. SO WHICH OF THE SIX GUNS FITS ALL OF THESE TRAITS THE BEST!!!!??? Can anyone post some video clips of these guns shooting, preferably in a review so I can see the gun's accuracy and consistency. THANKS ALOT!!!

Add matrix,timmi, and viking to your guns, and probably take out the speed. Still don't know much about you/your situation. All those guns that you listed are quite nice, you'll probably be happy with any of them as long as they don't give you problems.
I'm geting a 03 shocker, if that helps you any.

don't forget an emag. they are very reliable, not as fast as some of the guns on there, but fast enough (i think), its as accurate as any gun with the right adjustments.
Think about that too.

Hey thanks Warrior. Yea, one of my buddies said the Angel SPEED was garbage, and said if I was going to spend that money to get one of the below guns (minus the Matrix, Intimidator, and Viking)
E-Orracle
Nightkast
Strange Vision Impulse
Freak Factory Impulse
Shocker 2003
Matrix
Intimidator
Viking??????????????? (Never heard of a Viking, but okay)
Well, here's my situation:
I play paintball every couple of weeks. I am not on a team and don't compete or anything. I just go with some of my friends on the weekends. I just got a job, plus my parents are going to pay for alot of the equipment. So which of these is the best???

Add the Adrenaline Impulse to your list. It is the best custom Impulse out there other than the Rat. Check it out at the Smart Parts/Impulse forum.

Good custom impulse setup=more money than a good 03 shocker setup. Why go for the impulse?

Okay, here it is. The 4 that I have narrowed it down to:
E-Orracle
Nightkast
Shocker 2003
Lasoya Intimidator
So which one should I get?

e-orracle new-about $1200
nightcast-about same as e-orracle
lasoya timmi-about same as e-orracle
03 shocker vision-$850 or so
hum this is hard....:rolleyes:
But, these gun are all quite diffrent, pick which style you like best, cocker/spyder like/spool valve. Pick what YOU LIKE BEST.
I'd say 2003 shocker, they are so sexy and nice.. I have never really looked into lasoya timmies, but i bet they are nie too.. since you didnt want to have a gun where you would worry about messing w/ stuff... you might want to avoid a cocker for now, since you would probably end up tinkering w/ them, and could mess something up :). but as long as you read up on a gun, and learn all the basics, you will be fine w/ any gun. also, you might want to go shoot your final choices if you can. your opinion will out weigh ours, since it will be YOUR gun.

Mind telling me why it will be "SO AWSOME!!!," Only thing I have heard so far about the rat is that it will have diffrent milling then the standard 03.

I'd probably have to go for the '03 Shocker. I haven't seen them except on the net, but they look really nice. If you've got the money, I'd say get the Shocker or the Lasoya Timmy.

What kind of marker are you using now? What do you want in your marker, just turn it on and play? Or do you want control and the ability to adjust everything to your preferences?...
NO one can tell you what marker you are going to like more and be more comfortable with. When you get to that level of markers it is pretty much just personal preference as they will all shoot awesome and faster than you can pull the trigger or feed paint...
Seeing as how I love cockers and shoot an E-bladed Outkast, the E-Orracle is what I would want on that list but as you can see, different people suggest different markers.
The other marker I would look at if you don't want E-orraccle is the Viking like mentioned, for more information on those look in the AKA forum...

People should stop counting out 'Mags... :)
Look into a ULE E-Mag or an X-Mag (although the latter may be a bit out of your price range)

Mags are cool.

'cockers are pretty cool, but if you don't know what you're doing you can goof them up pretty bad.....I'd make sure a cocker is what you want if you're leaning towards the 'cockers.
