Should I get a Stingray 2 (which looks awsome) or a Angel? The Stingray, since it is really cheap, I could get two of and totally own. I could also use a scope too!
I got bout $1034 from my family for Christmas and I don't mind spending alot. The Stingray could also use a stock, man that would own, I would just walk around on that field and blast people apart.
Wat should I get?

He's not serious. And this isn't funny.
He'll get the attention he wants though, i'm sure.

Assuming that this was a serious question, take it from someone who made the mistake of buying one, do not buy the Stingray 2. I would also not suggest an Angel to start off with. I'm going to assume that you are relatively inexperienced, and I'm going to advise you based on that. Buy a non-electric marker, I would suggest the Kingman Spyder Shutter, or a non-electric autococker. Do not buy a kit. If it doesn't come with a barrel plug, get one, or a barrel condom. Get a Smart Parts Total Freak in 12 or 14 inches. Get a 20oz CO2 tank if you get the Spyder, and either a 20oz CO2 or good-size Nitro/LPA tank for the autococker, depending on what it runs. If it runs CO2, do not convert it to LPA/Nitro yet. You don't want to invest a ton of money in something you may not like. Get a good mask that fits you well, and some nice, sturdy clothing. Camo is not necessary, and indeed, many A-holes here will make fun of you if you use it. Get a 12-volt Viewloader Revolution as a hopper, and a couple of guppies with a holding system. Don't buy more paint than you will use in a month. Steer clear from Brass Eagle under all circumstances. Learn, learn, learn. Remember, if you make so much as one mistake, everyone will laugh at you and call you a "n00b" forever. If it's not fun, don't force yourself. Don't feel pressured to buy the most expensive or best marker. Learn to do well with what you have. I suppose that's about it.

If you hate PBReview, LEAVE.

Camo is good, for woodsball. Walk onto a brightly colored speedball course, and the only camo you could use would be in the shape of an Air bunker, and I don't think they make that yet.

People learn from mistakes. I've seen many people start off new and get very far.

The problem is taking the time to learn about the sport before you go off and do something that a few minutes of research could have answered, such as ask whether a Stingray is better than an Angel.

OMG! THAT DORITO IS SPRINTING UP THE TAPE!!!


Here's what you'd do, if you were actually serious:

Get a JT Flex7 Ize. Get either an electro Spyder/Spyder Clone (only ones I'd recommend are the M3 markers and Pirhanas). Get a CP 1 Piece barrel. Get a 20oz CO2 tank, and get it anti-siphoned. Get a Palmer's Stabilizer. Get an Evolution II or Empire Reloader, depending if you've got decent fingers and if your marker is capped low or not. Get some internals for your marker (head to the correct forum for into).

Put the rest in the bank, earn some interest. Take money out to play when you need it.

Then..


I would suggest ... a non-electric autococker



Get a Smart Parts Total Freak in 12 or 14 inches

So a newbie gets a 'Cocker which he'll short stroke all the time, as well as not knowing how to take care of it, so he'll be on the sidelines more than on the field. You then advise him to buy a $200 barrel system, even though you shouldn't

feel pressured to buy the most expensive or best marker.

A 'Cocker is one of the two best mech markers available.

Buying an expensive marker is bad, but buying an expensive barrel kit isn't? Mmmk.
