what ICD gun should i get

[triggerhappy54]

i have a maximuim of $400 to spend on a new gun but i also need a nitro tank, i was thinking about getting a BKO or another one of IDC's guns. what gun do you think i should get for that kind of money.(include upgrades if you think they would help) thanks

[rocker]

just get a bko and a tank. a 68 if you play front/mid or an 88 if you play back maybe a new barrel also. and a drop forward with on/off

BKO, and a nice tank. That would hit your 400 mark. If you have some extra cash to throw around and want a barrel (which you will sooner or later, later is prolly better) then I suggest the Bizerk Pro System.

Save your bucks and buy a B2K3 with PDS. In the end, you'll end up wanting to upgrade your BKO to have most of the features of the B2K3 anyway (or wish you could have them). Saving money to buy the B2K3 will save you a lot of money in the end. I wish this is what I did. I'm not bashing the BKO though. It shoot nices for what you pay. If you play tourneys, you will need something more.

The man speaks the truth.

I had anything you could think of on my BKO, except some custom anno.

Still, in the end, I had to move up to the B2K3.

Sup ryan.

Well, as far as I know, you don't play all that much, so BKO would be for you. But if you're planning on getting more serious about paintball and playing a lot more, saving up for a b2k3 + PDS would be a good idea.

But then of course, once you hit ~520 for the b2k3 +pds, you'll be in the Angel LCD, cheap IR3, Impulse, maybe even a stock viking :eek: category too. So maybe if you save up the extra 150 or so $$$, you'll be in a whole new range of selection.

Check out the AKA forums for Vikings... you can buy a used viking without upgrade for around 550$. That'd be a gREAT choice for you. Then all you'd need is WAS and a new barrel and your viking would pwn.:love:

what ore the differences between the bko and the bushmaster 2000, which would be better for a rec player who plans to start playing tourny?

[the other one]

get a puma.

(yes, it's an ICD gun)

[AgentOrange]

I say go bko. 17bps is more than enough for most people. As most people can't hit that.

welp, i gotta tell ya i have had nothing but troubles with my icd. if you want it to rip outa the box your kiddin yourself. i have yet to have a good day of play without troubles, and upgrades. i purchased a new b2k a few months ago. #1 the machining on the gun was not top notch. thus creating blow back and heavy ball chopping, i had to upgrade to a vapor bolt with o-rings to make up for the over sized bore. i might add it was an extra 30 bucks adn a month of wondering where it is? vapor works are not on top of anything.#2 got that fixed went out to play and sure enuff first game the ball detent goes. cool ...balls are runnin out my barrel all day unless i was rippin on it. fixed that for 10 bucks. #3 had that dialed in went out to try again, and well you guessed it more troubles. the high pressure regulator went out, and i could only achieve 260 fps, it sucks watching your balls bounce off people. #4 to upgrade the reg of course i had to buy and extra 30 dollar adapter on top of the 80 dollar reg.... im going to play saturday and hopefully all goes well. i just want 1 good day without troubles. i suggest saving you money and buying a Bob Long Intimidator. my brother has 1 and it is so reliable its almost rediculous. by the time i finish upgrading my gun i could had the best for about the same price. so you do the math and tell me if you want troubles or a ready to rip gun.
I will also add that i am NOT giving up on my bushy, i am convinced it will ripp, but damn all theses things ya gotta do, gets a lil over whelming.

maybe i got some type of a lemon. it does happen and you never know who put your gun together.
