well, i have been searching the web, and found a funky gun.
www.paintballcommand.com/paintballcommand.filereader?3bfdbd8e0ac13024271dd1 43c8fe0720+EN/products/04&2DPIE1BLK
i dont' know if the link will work, so go to www.paintballcommand.com/ click on the gun section, look under miscellaneous, and you will see E-1 dragun. this gun looks pretty wierd. it looks like a spyder or rebel(reg and expansion chamber) but has a wierd grip and body. just thought you'd like to see it. :eyes:

Hmm...for under $200, it actually doesnt look that bad. I mean, look at ZAP's electro! :laugh:

wow, that is the exact same thing as a spyder. the barrel is the same, the DF and gauge are the same, some copiers they are. doesnt look that bad though

that gun takes EVERY single spyder upgrade.They have it at one of my local paintball stores and the trigger pull is really nice,but i don't know how well it performs on the field. you can get that gun at paintallgear.com for 99.99

it looks like they took the spyder shutter, the spyder extra and mixed it together and made it electro.

I've actually handled one of these at my local field. It has a plastic trigger and trigger frame, a gas-thru grip (no exp chamber) and the electro is semi-only, no ELCD. Still, it puts out the paint. You can easily get the double trigger action going and the trigger pull is short and sweet. Still, I'd pay another 50 bucks if they had only machined the grip and trigger out of aluminum or something. Oh, and the barrel is like a 10" or 8". It's really short. The gauge is a mini one, it goes to 1200 psi I believe.

I don't know about the one, but the Zap gun is HORRIBLE. I had the nightmare of testing one with James "MadDog" Morgan for APG and it sucked.

But don't let the real people of the world know that, any one who buys APG deserves to know that all paintguns are great! and they can look at the ad for them on the next page, a shiny $1000 add. Of course it's good, APG reviewed it :rolleyes:

I have this gun. Boy, it's great! The trigger pull is very nice, and I am having a custom trigger frame and trigger machined for me. (aluminum). It unloads the paintlike crazy. I love seeing the faces on the guys with Angels as they pass me and see my gun (the gun that took them out).

well, isn't every blowback except the tippmann really just a spyder copy?

Don't be so cocky just because your blowback is fast. Many of the people with angels are highly skilled, and chances are, better than you. Please, i know you wouldn't say this on the feild, you'd get hounded, so don't hide behind a computer.
It's all fun and games saying that till some renter shoots you because you got to cocky.
Just sayin :|

Oh believe me, I know. Heck I've only been playing the game for not even a year. I've seen kids that have boasted and gotten their *** kicked.
I agree it's 90% player/ 30% gun,(that's a joke!) but all other things being equal, the Angel throws a lot more paint, a lot straighter than most other markers.
But the point of this thread was whether this $200 electro marker was a good deal. Unfortunately, you get what you pay for.
It's like someone saying," I found this Hyundai sportscar that looks just like a Porche, it even has the same number of gears and tires, and is painted the same, but it's only $5000."
It may be inexpensive, but it ain't a Porche.
Good markers are expensive, but you really can tell the difference.
If you buy a $200 electro, you will be trying to unload it for $100 within a year.

Unfortunately you can't say that unless you try it.

it sucks that some idiots go in and put 1s and bring down the average. The kind of idiots that put in the comments "All blowbacks are crap and suck and are junk" and stuff like that. They probably never even tried the gun.

Yeah, it's actually a pretty decent gun. I should know, I've shot it.

when you upgrade it, it's not decent. It's awsome. I should know, I have one.
Sweet. I'm gonna buy it with some of my Christmas $$. I'll even have some left over to buy a HPA tank! w00t!
