i think 9v are fine if u shoot in bursts, but if your a maniac and shot over 10 balls in succession, you'll definiately need a twelve. it's pretty easy to out shoot a 9v, i can do it w/ my spyderclone.

try it out, if you find that you shoot more then what is feeded then get a 12 volt, but try ur 9 volt for now.

I would suggest getting a 12 volt from the start. They're only $5-$10 more. If you don't need the higher feed rate then it won't use it. Why buy the same item twice if you don't like the 9v or it doesn't perform the way you want. What if someone at the field borrows your gun and really rips on the trigger? It'll not feed as fast as they are shooting, they'll say your gun is crap and it'll probably chop like mad.

Save money in the long run by spending a bit more in the beginning. You may change guns in the future but if you have a decent 12 volt you'll hang on to it as long as it works!!

Get a 12 volt. It's not that much more expensive, and unless you fire extremely fast, you probably won't outshoot it.

does anyone know about a new 9v hopper called a ricochet, it's supposed to deflect paint instead of breaking it and go 13bps

tell me about it if you know

here's an idea, get the 9v and if it's not good enough sell it to a friend for full price and buy the 12v
