M3 Sniper Vs. Pi e-2

[mrchiimp]

Ok, Debating, i know there is already a post similar, but i think i somewhat trailed off..

Anyway, which one? which one is good bad, the way i'm thinking is, well there is no way i'm gonna be pulling 20 bps (pi e-2) and the sniper looks nice and has nice modes. But, i can get myself the pi e-2 for 150 and i dunno what the cheapest the sniper is. Please leave input. Thanks in advance.



P.S. Those of you who will go a little off topic by suggesting something totally different. (black dragun compacts etc. then trick out the thing with the extra money) thanks but no thanks.:)

$150 is a pretty nice price. I'd normally say go with the Sniper, because all the E-2 is a stripped down Sniper, thats all. The lowest i've seen the sniper go for is $210. I own a sniper, but don't really use the modes (but hey i least i got them). So all u have to think is if the milling and firing modes is worth $60?

What do you mean by the PI E2 is a stripped down sniper? Also I have heard that the sniper isn't tourney leagle?
On the E2 are the componants (reg,bold,trgi frame, barrel"even though i would upgrade the barrel") different? :eyes:

The sniper is not tourney legal when you first buy it. But once u get it, just call M3 and tell them you want a semi-only board, and they'll send that to you.

From what I was told, everything is exactly the same between the two, except the sniper has the different drop forward, the 14in barrel, and different firing modes. I forgot to mention those in my other posts, so take those into consideration also

I own an E-2 and I love it. the E-2 does come with a different trigger frame, but the bolt and the reg are the same i think. However the E-2 is a horrible gun stock. It has really bad gas efficiency and is very inaccurate. I've pimped it now though with countless Check-it Products parts. I imagine that sniper would be just as bad stock, seeing that it is almost the same gun. I was also contemplating buying the sniper before I got my E-2, but Overall I decided the E-2 was a better buy. Now i have a delrin bolt, assault block kit, turbo valve, ACI Zero Gravity Combo barrel, Stick trigger, a longer drop forward, and a 68ci Crossfire tank.

alright, so what's on the semi only frame? Same thing as a black dragun? if so then, 150 compared to 50 $ more for the exact same thing basically....

[mrchiimp]

up there i meant same thing as a pi e-2 frame

[Incube]

um the sniper isnt tourny level? thats suckors...so do thay give you the semi board for free?

[VerySolidSnake]

yes the semi-only board is compelty free. Remember its a LCD screen, u can change the rate of fire, display shot counter, and everything else. Its alot more than a black dragun basic.

[brodude2002]

its free if u trade in ur old, lcf full function board. that how my friend got his. the board alone is 60.

no no, i'm not trading my full function in. You don't have to lose anything to gain the semi-only board
