my birthday is next saturday, and i am planning on getting a new mech frame (no blades,ans,race)

i was condidering the 90* jackal frame, does anyone know if this is good?

also, if you have any other suggestions to a better and faster frame lemme know

i woulda picked the blade frame, but they are almost impossible to find

i wouldnt spend the money on a new frame, it could be better spent somewhere else. it will be about $90, unless youre looking at cheap frames, which wont be an improvement over your current one. if you already have upgraded pneumatics, internals, etc, then go ahead, but if you still have some of those parts stock, upgrade them first.

a mech frame is a mech frame, ur only getting better looks

**TipP 98 CusToM** · September 25th, 09:15 PM

i have a slide trigger frmae right now that is single trigger

can someone answer the question

**PizzaMiLiTiA** · September 25th, 09:26 PM

Splurge on a WGP Hinge if you must, but you won't see that great of a performance increase. Like said above, that money could be better spent on new pneu's and internals.

Get a Eclipse Mech Frame. Thats what I got.

***wolf13*** · September 25th, 10:02 PM

the jackal is basicly the same as the ccm's. as far as hinges go they are one of the best if you like 90 frames. contrary to some of the posts in this thread, in terms of speed and comfort as far as a mech goes, a frame can make as much or more differnce then any other upgrade depending on what you had before. IIRC, you have the stock non 45 slide frame correct? if so, nearly any slide or hinge frame will be differnt for you in feel and smoothness.

Save your money, going from a mech frame to another slightly better mech frame is pretty pointless.

**TipP 98 CusToM** · September 26th, 08:26 PM

does anyone have any suggestions in which frame is the best

**paintthecatBLUE** · September 26th, 08:58 PM

i think the one you have is the best...

seriously

***paintballr927*** · September 27th, 07:45 PM

grab a hinge off ebay for $20, thats what i did.

**TipP 98 CusToM** · September 27th, 08:31 PM

what would be better this one

http://cgi.ebay.com/WGP-05-Autococke...QQcmdZViewItem

or a hinge

***paintballr927*** · September 27th, 08:39 PM

just about every mech frame is the same. get the chepest you can if you looking for something thats not a slider

**paintthecatBLUE** · September 27th, 08:50 PM

yes, if youre really dying for a new mech frame, get the cheapest one you can find. look at used ones. theres no sense in paying $90 for what you already have...

and if youre ready to drop 90-100 dollars on a mech frame, why not save up another $50 and just get an E1? if thats out of the question though, just get a cheap $20 hinge and spend the other $70 on pneumatics and stuff like that.

i am condsidering an e1, were can you find one for 150

o and also can it run on anti syphoned c02

**paintthecatBLUE** · September 28th, 04:55 PM

you can only get an E1 used, because they arent made any more. worrblades are also the same thing.

you could use anti-siphoned co2, but youre risking $60 for the solenoid alone, plus every o-ring in the gun and your pneumatics... so it would be a good idea to get a nitro tank, youre going to end up spending the money anyways. you just have to decide whether it will be on spare parts or that tank

**TipP 98 CusToM** · September 28th, 05:00 PM

im getting like $250 or maybe even more this week, so im not quite sure what to spend it on

i was thinking e1,new body because mine is a rf right now, cheap nitro tank, and possibly an egg (id probably get a hoal b but ill have no money left

**paintthecatBLUE** · September 28th, 05:37 PM

e1- $150
new body- over $150 for one that looks really good

you need more money
