-cheap plastic (but if it wasnt it wouldnt be so light)
-non upgradable
Review:
It was my first marker and i recomend it for anyone just starting out, without a lot of money...It is very accurate and light wieght. After a few months i broke a o-ring inside the gun i went to take it apart and pieces went everywhere (at the time i wasnt very smart) it was only a very small problem but i just gave up on it and invested in a new gun!
Conclusion:
I would recomend this gun to anyone looking for a decent marker and not looking to spend a fortune on it. i had a lot of fun with it, so i highly recomend it!
a zxs 800e w/ 200 round hopper tank and stuff. (soon to get a tippmann)
Recommended Upgrades:
a mach 404 hopper.
Strengths:
good for close range play
Weaknesses:
regulator sucks
cant shoot very far.
Review:
Pretty good gun, even though it is plastic it is a real sturdy gun. zap is a good reliable company so i had no doubt in buying any of my zap guns. i bought this and it came with a hopper, a squeegee, 2 tubes and a thing to put them on your belt, and an elbow.
i think this is a decent gun but it has its problems. if you are light on cash get it but if you got a little more money get a zxs 800e or a tippman.
Conclusion:
i advise anyone who is a in need of a backup gun or is short on cash to get this one. i gave it a 7 because it is a decent gun, but i think they should have made it metal and with a few more upgrades.(there are a few like a tune up kit, and this thing that makes the bottle come out of the handle like regular guns.

I started playing paintball nowing nothing about it.So my dad got me this gun and i didnt know it sucked this bad until i saw my freind's(tippmann model 98)gun.So then i got a tippmann model 98 custom and i immediatly sold it.I got a good deal on it because i sold it for $15 and its only worth about 15 cents.
Conclusion:
Dont spent your money on this, youd be better off with a slingshot. :-)
I gave it a 2 because not having a gun would be a 1 and a slingshot would be a 3 compared to this stupid gun.:-)

Review:
okie, as i said before, i only bought this gun with its kit because it was 100 bucks, i needed the the gun/equipment for a school project, and it came with the needed equipment to get started. i was new to paintball, so a gun, mask, tank, hopper and pods for 100 bucks is great! (and i didnt have a job at the time, so i needed the stuff very cheaply)
the gun is inaccurate over medium distances, and fairly accurate at close range. its loud, but i didnt care. i needed it for a movie for school to promote my paintball field in the business fair) the vertical Co2 is annoying, with me having to hold it and the handle to hld the gun. with faster firing, the tank gets cold and numbs my hand. the hopper feeds well with semi firing, but faster firimg, it chopped many balls, and double deefed (i think it once quint-fired, blowing my firend with a shotgun effect that was pretty cool!) all in all, only get this gun if ur new to the sport and need all the equipment at a cheap price.
Conclusion:
Only buy it if ur new to the sport and need the equipment cheaply.

Marker Setup:
Marauder Paintball Gun, it really good for the cost
Recommended Upgrades:
triger, power hopper, internal working...
Strengths:
Light
Cheap

Review:
This gun is not even good for beginers, it is under powered, cheaply made. I used it once and notised that it started to crap-out after the firls round. I field striped it and there was no oil or lubricant on any moving parts. It also shreds cheaply made balls, probably because the timing of the piston is no the same every shot.
My friend and I both have the "same" gun, but their both completely different. Mine has a sight and shoots smoothly and quietly, where as his has no sight, is really loud and scary with massive kick, and he never can tell were he shoots cause to much Co2 comes out the barrel and from the rear bolt. It's a fun little gun to have, my friend loves his. We shoot small crab apples out of the barrel of it, and we drop them and they still work as good as they did out of the package(even though I bought mine for $2 off a friend).
Conclusion:
So get this gun if you want something that you don't mind throwing at your enemies when you're out of ammo :)
