judging by the number of threads you responded to by saying its a waste of money i take it your mad about them charging for membership.
personally i think it's a waste too, just buy an electro gun. impulses are about 400$

well yeah in a way it does piss me off when people get cheezy like that hey you spent alot of time and work getting the forums going and building a decent site... 'kudos' you've earned a spotlight in the nets paintball resource sites... but there is very little information paintballcity themselves offers little more than a links list and and links to everyone elses hard work?
And EVEN their biggest attraction the forums are the writing of other people.... furthermore ask the mods of this board will tell you they didn't write the script for this forum although they changed some editable fields to suit to their needs and as far as I am concerned there have been many posts such as a general for instance (TLPLUS' Trigger Job) in my own opinion was a great mod and he could have charged for the info and made bank on it but he didn't why? I think to a certain extent like most of us we feel the intiative to promote our sport and give as much back to others as was given to us.

Anyhow I apologize branchvillePB I suggest you keep you compact as a back up and buy yourself a electro gun I personally saw the same dilemma whne the Boo Yah first came out and found several things I didn't like about the boo-Yah trigger frame first of all it was much thicker than expected it also had a pretty Yucky feel to the trigger no rounded sides for an ergonomic fit typically found on most double finger triggers as well as the only thing electro about the gun was the sear release. If you buy an impulse bushmaster shocker or similar most of them contain built in regs electric solenoids multiple firing mode with the ability to accept upgraded boards as well as most come low pressure stock which gives you the ability to shoot paint with a much more brittle shell as well as the fact that a true electro gun has a great resale value in most cases where as most compact 2k w/ booyah frame have a resale of around 240 tops! And thats a a big fall to take considering most spyders never stay stock for long..... there are just too many reasons to get another gun.

I dont know about boo yaa's but ive met multiple people wo said thy were very happy with their hyper frame. Now im sure they liked them but when they told me how great they were there could have been an aspect of they didnt want to look dumb by wasting 400 on a piece o junk.

I am very happy with my Boo-Yaah on a Auto-Mag. Had players come over to me Sunday and ask "what the hell are you shooting anyway, it rips off rounds like mad". I have a CO2 set up and have no problems. Use approx 500 round per 20 minute game. I use 3 shot burst or full auto for in close shooting.

i just cant see spending more for a trigger frame than for my gun i would rather buy a cheap electro or a cocker, i also heard that they wear out the internal of a blowback style marker

yeah it might look coll for one but they destroy the internal parts. you will be buying new parts all the time. a blowback marker is used for semi ONLY. buy a electro gun if you have to. only alittle more.

For a spyder or pirahna, I would just buy a new gun if you want a boo yah grip. But for a gun like a automag or autococker(when they come out), you'd be spending $600+ to get it to have a electro trigger, boo yah grip is only $250 and gives you a nice electro trigger. So for lower end guns, bad, for higher end guns, good.

i dont think its a waste becuase i seen people with them they say there really happy with it. One guy said he would use is spyder 2000 mor often than his busmaster 2000. So i dont think its a waste. im planning to get one too.
