The only differences are size, looks, and psi (ie. 0-300psi, 0-700psi, etc.)
Just get what is more appealing.. not that big of deal..just make sure that the operation pressure of your marker is on the scale of the guage :D

Some Guages arent as accurate as others. I wouldn't suggest getting a 1200 psi guage, because You couldnt tell exactly at what your running at.

The closer your guage is to your operation pressure, the more accurate it will be and the easier it will be to read.

888 paintball has the 32* mini guage on sale right now.....$14.88...either 0-600 or 0-1200
they also sell a cool cover for it for $1.18...
I have one w/a cover... and they are small so they don't get in the way....but are very easy to read...(and fit under your front block if you have a cocker)

No, you fools! Different guages have different levels of accuracy, and let me say, that the best guage by far is the guage offered by wickedairsportz (www.wickedairsportz.com). This guage here, had double it's max pressure run through it, then was beat with a crescent wrench and THEN was put into an industrial vice and crushed. And, it still didnt leak

If they are as good as you (eltwitcho) say they are, and as good as they say they are. Then I think I will buy one.
And oh my only $12.95.
Thanks for the info. all

People were talking about just make sure your operating pressure is on the guage. How do you know what operating pressure to run at?

Depends on what your regulator is set at. If your reg is set at 300 psi, you'll want a 0-500 psi guage. If it's set at 150, you'll want a 200psi guage. If you dont have a reg and run a preset nitro tank, you'll want a 0-1000guage or if you cant find one, one of the more common 0-1500 guages will work. For CO2, 0-1500 would be best if it's unregulated
