$150- Custom 98, Spyder Imagine, Piranha E-Force GTI, Piranha E-Force VTL, Piranha STS G3 CORE


$200- Spyder E-99, Piranha STS G3, Piranha EXT 2K3, Piranha STS VF G3, Piranha E-Force SRT 04

$250- Tippmann A-5, BKO '04 Spyder Shutter, Spyder Electra, Spyder Pilot, Spyder E-99 Avant, Piranha PRO TS G3, Piranha EXT PRO G3, Piranha E-Force EXT Pro 2k4, Smart Parts: Ion

$300- Spyder Fenix, Kingman Spyder Electra DX, Piranha Pro E 2k3, Piranha E-Force EVO, Tippmann A-5 Micro Max f/x

P.S. This is a good starting point. Further questions may be addressed in individual topics, I just want to give newbies a good listing and starting point, because they don't know all the markers out on the market.

actually imo you should say forget teh extreme bko and just put in the 04 which runs 240 new, the extreme just has different milling thats all. Good job though and i agree w/ the fact that there has been alot of new people asking. Oh and got what your doing all the guns listed are below that price, but maybe just put the 04 bko maybe if you wanted to under the 250 but up to you good post though.

Oh and are you doing msr bc of just in general? Like i know alot of guns that are like msr or whatever it is at 500 but you acn get them for $300 or so but let me know.

I use MSRP because all those other prices depend on where, when and how too much to run on. They aren't solid enough to build a list on, and can be very opininated. All suggestions for markers to add or take off are good, discussions on the markers themselves must be seperate. I will not delete Posts asking about good markers for a certain price as long as they use this page as reference, or take the time to at least take a look at my list. If someone just goes: Whats a good marker for 400, I will be pissed but I'll look at the discussion before I delete. If someone goes: What is a good marker for 400? Not on the list, or whats in your opinion the best from that list for 400? I will not delete.... this post isn't really setting any rules, its just an attempt to answer some questions and not have repeat posts for newbies, kinda like a FAQ.

Ok well if we want you adding guns, we should find the msrp then right? To do you a favor? ill go do my search for the price and all, to make it easier on you. I can edit this post w/ the guns.

05 vert cocker all i found was $359
Sp ION $299


Oh and the (xtra) should that be like below 100??? not 200? jw. Thats insane if it is. Um thats all i can think of for now, but more will come, if you could find the msrp on the b2k i would definatly suggest throwing that up there.

Yeah warraven tahts what i was looking at pbreview. That seems really off that the imagine mrsp goes for about 150 and less, and the extra is 225 thats insane.

And wait, but you would recomend a nasty imp?? lol jw, oh and also would you put like the VL guns in there??? I know newbs stil get those, even though they arnt recomended, or do you want to leave stuff like that out, and only do the highly recomended?

I'll take a look at some of that, but I like it as a starting point... and I don't trust a loader company to make a marker... but I will take a look.

i just thought about it, would it be a good idea, to seperate which guns can run on HPA and CO2? maybe to help out the newer people? Dunno if that would be hard, but yeah just a thought.
