Choices, choices, choices

Alright, I have been looking around for a new electronic gun to replace my Spyder TL-R, but there are so many guns out there that i don't know where exactly to start... I'm looking for a recreational/low to mid level tourny gun thats around or under $300... I like to play both woodsball and speedsball, but mostly speedball... I would also like a gun that is really customizable but is also good from the start so i can customize down the road... Saying this also says that i want a gun that will last for many years and will not cause too many problems... I know i'm kinda asking for the perfect gun but I want the gun that is closest to these specs... I have been kindof looking at a Kingman VS2, a Diablo Wrath, and an Ion... BUT I DO NOT WANT TOO MANY REPLIES SAYING GET AN ION!!! I know it is one of the best guns of choice but i want to hear about other guns also... Just another thing, we play like every saturday or so during the summer... And I do need an HPA tank and a new hopper, but thats not the part of my $300 budget, thats just for the marker...

look into ions and promasters.

See the thing is that I hear that the Ion doesnt have a good feedneck, and thats a small problem that just kinda irks me... Also the Promaster does not come with an ASA!!! What the crud? thats just another little annoying thing to me... And also i read that it does not come with a good regulator... Another irksome (is that a word? lol) problem... Its just plain annoying... what do you thing about the Wrath? I hear that it is pretty good... Hey, i just remembered... what do you guys think of the Redz Ion? i might be able to save up $50 or so more dollars... and then i don't have to get too many upgrades!!!

Well to tell the truth the ion fits almost perfectly w/ what you're looking at in a gun. None of the others have the potential that the ion has when it comes to upping. Just about the only good things i hear about wraths comes from fanboys who pretty much say it's the best and then leave and never tell you why. I can't tell you much about it since i have hardly any experience w/ it but it's not something i'd ever get personally. What i would do is either get a new or used ion and put a qev, feedneck, trigger, and on/off on and that's it for awhile. Look into used e-cockers maybe and the fusion as well.

One, what in the world is an e-cocker? Two... I don't feel comfortable buying used guns... I don't really know what that thing has gone through... Call me paranoid but thats just a personal preference of mine... I know this may sound like the apocalypse or something, but my last two choices are the Kingman VS2 or the REDZ Ion, and personally I will probably buy the REDZ if any Ion, but the VS2 is kinda my backup if i can't get the REDZ, which i don't see why I wouldn't be able too... Now all i need is money :) (Don't we all in this materialistic world? Hehe...)

E-cocker means an electric autococker. Out of the redz ion and vs2 i gotta say get the ion. It's fits what you want more then the vs2 ever can.

yes i would sell you my ion (brand new with ups) but i only do local, but you get the ion for what..$225 now?? a new feedneck for 20, get a cheap tank, save alittle and get a halo...youl be set

[Zeusrocks15]

Man, the more I look at that REDZ Ion, the more i DROOL!!! :)_ lol... I might buy the red one and maybe get another Redz body kit on the side just in case i decide to change it one day... I mean it has pretty much all the upgrades I was going to get anyways... For a GREAT PRICE TOO!!!
