How long have you been playing paintball?

wander6730 · 10-12-2003, 07:25 PM

ive been playing for 1 year

vbpaint01 · 10-12-2003, 07:27 PM

are you a front/mid/back player

vbpaint01 · 10-12-2003, 07:36 PM

and the price of the a-5 w/ response trigger is close to $300, for that money you could buy a WGP 2003 Autococker($350) or a Standard Black Impulse($425) for which both, IMO, are better than both of those guns you mentioned...but that's me, I think the A-5 would be better overall if i had a choice over the two...

Well, since this is the electro forum ill go with vbpaint01. If you don't want an electro and want to hear from people who own those guns listed go to the hybrid blowback forum.

wander6730 · 10-12-2003, 07:46 PM

I am a front player and i am looking for an electro gun in a price range of 250 to 300

xXblinkXegoXx · 10-12-2003, 07:53 PM

get an amg. i have one and it rules. but you should get the electra. i dont like it as much as an amg but if i would have bought my amg all over again i would have got an electra because an amg is a biatch to upgrade later (regulator, low pressure system, bolt, drop forward upgrades). i fricken love my amg though so i say go with an electro spyder, amg, electra, or even better if you could find an em1. also you could get an old shocker. or a rainmaker. i dunno. get what you want.lol.

vbpaint01 · 10-12-2003, 07:55 PM

yeah, you could get a spyder electra, or maybe even a spyder fenix(if it's out yet)

wander6730 · 10-12-2003, 08:28 PM

does anyone know about the spyder fenix?

wander6730 · 10-12-2003, 08:44 PM

I GUESS NOT, CAN ANYONE RECOMEND ANY OTHER ELECTRO GUNS BESIDES A SPYDER IN THE PRICE RANGE OF 250 TO 300

Rancid Coleslaw · 10-12-2003, 10:44 PM

Only true electro in that range is the bko. You guys keep talking about hybrid blowbacks, which doesn't belong here.

Kowz_76 · 10-13-2003, 07:19 AM

Get a BKO or an esprit + lots of upgrades.

ipoppedtimmy · 10-13-2003, 11:59 AM

BKO = True electro

I'm not a big fan of Hybrid Electro's. BKO will shoot a ton better than any blowback. Not nearly as much kick and can be faster w/ upgrades.

Kingman27 · 10-13-2003, 02:18 PM

yeah get a fenix.they are @ paintballdiscounters.com

Rancid Coleslaw · 10-13-2003, 04:24 PM

But if he can afford a bko, why not go for it. It's a true electro and the design of it alone guarantees better performance than any of those e-spyders or other hybrid blowbacks.

wander6730 · 10-15-2003, 11:06 AM

Is there any other gun like the bko in the same price range. because i realy dont like the look of the bko

Kingman27 · 10-15-2003, 12:07 PM

not really..maybe a used cheap impy

stunner · 01-28-2005, 07:12 PM

DO NOT GET A BKO THEY CHOP PAINT LIKE NO OTHER. LISTEN TO ME, DO NOT GET A BKO. one of my freinds had a bko, there was so much chpped paint it was uzzing through and up into the hopper.

I say save a little money and get a low end autockocker, like a prostock

With a different bolt (or modded) and the modded macroline detents, it probably wouldn't chop much with a halob/eggy2.
