Hey, I'm pretty new to paintball, and I want to get a gun. I'm not a total nub, so don't use nub terms smile.gif. I was looking at spyders, becasue I hear they are reliable and the price range is pretty good. When I first saw the E-99 I fell in love, but for my first gun, I don't want something as costly.

I was looking at the ESprit. I don't really like the look, but I want to hear some opinions. I know if I put a bottom line kit on the ESprit, it would look pretty decent. I want something stable and quick to fire.

I also am looking at the aggressor. It looks slick, and from what I have read, it is easily upgradable to a quality marker.

Kingman Aggressor XT paintball marker with free vertical loader elbow, all for 59.99 + Shipping. I am thinking about that, and I want to have it for the summer, so I can play with my friends. I already have a 20oz Co2, Carrying Case, 6 200rd Tubes, 50 O-Rings, and I want to get a harness and coil remote so I can carry the co2 on my back.

Tell me what you all think, I am dieing for opinions.

i agree with him all the way. tippmanns are alot better then spyders. they're more reliable and more customizable. they won't get scrwed up in the winter like spyders do.

yea. and alot of the upgrades on tippmans come stock on a spyder. like the expansion chamber, drop foward, rt trigger, response trigger, lp system. easier to change velocity 2.

that is such BS dude. a tippy can out perform a spyder any day of the week they are so much better then spyders. spyders get all screwed up in the winter but the tippmann keeps going. the espirit and the imagine rear bolts freeze in the cold...the compact is junk spyders are such junk its not funny. o and mattman the rt and response trigger are the same.

well what spyders r u talkin about. u are partfully right. but there are some spyders that could way outplay a tippy. like the e99 flash electra amg. now if u were talkin about the semi series or the imagine or espirit then yes you are correct.

yea im talking about them the semi series. but i still think a tippy could match up to a Flash any day and i think that the m98custom is atleast equal to the Flash and the A-5 could destroy both those guns. there would be no compition at all.

i think that a the 98 custom with the expansion chamber would equal a flash. performance wise i think they are about the same. but im not so sure about the AMG and the A-5. ive used both and there are goods and bads with both. i think the A5 is to heavy but it doesnt break paint or double feed. the amg has a weird barrel thingy which spoils a good barrel like a freak, but it also doesnt double feed and it shoots well. i think performance wise they are also the same. just i would rather get the amg because of the expansion chamber. and when tippy comes out with the cyclone feed for all guns i would get that.
