How's it going people? I would like to start out by saying what a great site this is.

::warning "blah blah blah yada yada yada" ahead::
[fast foward >> :crazy: ]

{I don't blame ya if ya snooze off :boring: }
I am relatively new to paintball. I've only played a few indoor games (Wildfire Indoor field before they moved to combine with their outdoor fields in snellville, ga). This sport is really fun and i'd like to take my involvement to the next level. Owning my own gun would be a good place to start i suppose ; ) . Just for fun I guess, here is what I've used; a model98(rental), pro/carbine(rental), autococker (borrowed from friend), angel lcd (ditto, same friend), and a talon (ditto). I guess for a newbie i have been lucky enough to experience a wide-range of markers. Well, as I was saying, I'd like to buy a pair of markers (I have a twin brother, and that whole "sharing" thing doesn't work too well with one marker : D ). I plan on buying a m98c and/or a p/c. Angels and 'Cockers are just a tad out of my budget ; ) . Well, pardon my long post (it ain't over yet :laugh: )...

[stop [X] o.k., o.k., here's the point of my post :atten: ]

budget: approx. $400 for 2 pb-guns

1. wanted to have option open for "different feeling markers" so thinking about getting a m98c and a p/c. Planning to play outdoors (woods, etc.) and indoors so my friends w/o markers can play (rent).

suggestions (diff. markers, whatnot)?

2. planning to purchase those "complete gun packages" from express paintball.

suggestions (better online store or deal, purchasing advice, whatnot)?

3. read about what barrels to get, but didn't get to read up on any "internal" upgrades (really clueless about them, so i wasn't sure where to start).

suggestions (on anything that moves in there)?

[I was planning to keep a list of upgrades you all suggest and then further research into them, so when i'm "schooled" and have enough money... i'd try 'em out. so anything is greatly appreciated.]

4. If you think i'm forgetting any questions, please feel free to ask me and I'll further inform ya.


well, thanks for reading my post... hope you'll reply to it also :D .
