okay so my freind is looking for a cheap but relativly good paintball gun. he was looking around under brass eagle, having heard from some guy that they were good, when he foung ths gun. the gun that he found was the brass eagle raider. now he has asked me to post a thread on this forum to find out what is up with this gun. his question is, "is this gun good? i will mostly be playing woods ball, and maybe some speedball."
NO, this gun is a complete P.O.S. f your friend is looing for a good starters gun, you cant go wrong with a VL Triad pack ( if he doesnt already have mask, hopper, tank, ect ect.)
other then your buying a cheap spyder...... lol j/k
Seriously, you get what you pay for. If your getting a cheap gun thats what you'll end up with. For performance wise they are all crappy and pretty much the same. Take what looks the best built.
i just had some extra money the other day at walmart and found the raiders playing kit for like 10 or 20 bucks with every thing even though the gun still sucks...
the raider is fine. get a new compact 9" Truflite rifled barrel for $15 shipped, or a J&J ceramic for like $40 shipped. once u get a new barrel the raider aint so bad.
