View Full Version : Very difficult choice...

OK, I've been thinking about this long and hard... And I still don't know what to do.
By my birthday (July) I'll have about $900 to spend and I want to know your opinions on my gun choice. I'm looking at either a WGP Superstock Cocker (http://www.paintballfirst.com/item.asp?n=126150) or a Rat Jr. (http://stores.cipp.com/Merchant4/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=10101023904&Category_Code=rjrs&Store_Code=mipaint).
I'd like to hear your opinions, and keep in mind that I don't want to blow all of my money on a gun, I need some to play, so please don't suggest a $900 gun. Thanks for your time.

Used AI and WAS. That should run you about 800-825. That leaves you 75 to play with. And for me, thats entry to the field, all day air, and a case of paint.

I'd like to play more than one time all summer...
Out of those two which would you recommend?

You only get 800 to play all summer? Get a god damn job.

Kinda tough when your 14... The most I can do is mow lawns, and that's not very high paying :|

You kidding me? Im 14, I mow lawns, I bring in about 160 a week, dont at me about not having money, its the summer, get yourself outside and work. But, if thats all you get, why not just play with what you have?

man how are you rakin in 160 a week
TheMexican

4 lawns, 25 for 3 of em, 30 for one. Thats 105. 20 for my allowance which includes chores around my house, then 20 for mowing my lawn. Then I water plants for people in my neighborhood while theyre out. Depending on who it is and how long they need me, it's about 160 a week. Bwa!

I have to do tons around the house and I don't see a dime...
I get about 20 a lawn but each lawn doesn't need to be cut every week, so I usually see about 60 a week, which I usuallly spend on goin out with friends and stuff...

Negatory on the E-Blade, I'm not a fan of them with RF's-- no eye.

Imp, then WAS board when its out. It'll be pretty damn fast, not all that efficient however, either way it'll be around 575, but the important thing is. You won't chop.

I live in Monroeville. Kingman, buying the red eblade and a new body would cost more than just buying a whole new gun... So I see no point in doin' that.

He has already decided he wants a Speed....I re-thought what I wanted for my next marker, and it's not a 'cocker ;) IT's something that you hate rob..

hmmm your 14 and you already have a cocker and you want to buy a super cocker well i think you are crazy i would stick with what you have i could only dream of a cocker...........but on the other hand supercockers are pretty darn awsome but so are rat.jr impulses are pretty nice i would take one of them instead of the super cocker.

If it's a rat or adrenaline or something, I'd say cool.
Stock impulses suck like Monica Lewinsky. Just about as ugly too.

Who's "against" a certain gun? That makes no sense... it's not like it killed your mother or something. In it's class, it can't be beat (well, stock).

Because a stock Imagine ($100) will shoot the same as a stock TES(more money)
