Would it be better to get a package w\ the Piranha VTL G2 and add on a expansion chamber for a total of $190, OR should I get the Spyder TL+ package for almost the same price ? Both packages include the Marker, JT X-Fire mask, 12 oz. tank, 200 paintballs, barrel plug, gun oil and a 200 round hopper w/elbow. Thanks a bunch

get a xtra, a little more right now, but worth it in the long run

if you want a cheaper gun get a pirhana g3 vf bl, i think those are $130 for the black ones. and then add a cheap regulator or a x-chamber for $30

So if I add an expansion chamber to a bottomline g2 it will only be about $30? What do I need, just the chamber? I don't need a kit for it?

At 888paintball.com I can get a chamber like this,

For $34, is that all I would need?

well, if you want to spend a little extra here and there you can get a lot better set up right now

here is what i reccomend you get instead of the x-chamber

get a AA vigilante regulator, they run around $54 and will do so much more than an ex-chamber as far as performance goes. also buy a co2 tank with an anti-siphon already installed or get one installed by your local pb shop. the kits run around $10+installation, this is a better bet because co2 tanks with pre-installed anti-siphons are like $60 for a 20 oz. so pay an extra $30-40 right now and you will be happier in the long run. here is your package:

pirhana g3 vf bl: $130 (make sure to get the g3 vert feed)
aa vigilante: $54
20 oz co2 tank: $25
anti-siphon kit: $10
jt spectra thermal goggles: $40
hopper: 7

total: around $270 + shipping etc.

this is a little more than what you had priced earlier but you get a lot better performance right away. of course if you didnt want all this i apologize for wasting your time. i still reccomend just getting a spyder xtra. it has everything stock that you want. and you can get a pretty decent package from http://www.actionvillage.com starting at $215

you don't need the EC right away, spend the money from the chamber on pain and go out ant play! gett skills, learn, have fun and after yyou've done that a few times get the chamber, less equipment more skils
less chat
more splat
