I think for the money, Brass Eagle guns do what there supposed to.. and make decent backyard guns. If its Brass Eagle vs Brass Eagle you can have some fun, if your looking down the barrel of some guy with even a tippy '98 or Spyder with your Blade pump I really don't find that to be that much fun. So that being said I would recommend..
1. Not taking these to actual fields with a few exceptions IE. Rainmaker your going to be outgunned pretty baddly.
2. If your paying 40$s for a fullsetup to play for a few hours which is less than I pay to go play for a day with all my own gear before buying paint, these guns are just fine.
Saying that Brass Eagle guns suck is taking them out of the context of what they're really made to do. I'd say the higher end current line-up of BE guns are not good values, they work, but its actually the cheaper BEs IMO that are decent values for what you can do with them.
He is saying EXCEPT for the rainmaker. It is written a little akward.

Truth.
My friend had an extra Stingray 2, and that's how I got into paintball.

true but gotta admit other better guns are getting cheaper n cheaper in packages. its like what 65 for a Pmi package r5 package? or 50-65 for a Jt 3.5 package?(although Jt if iffy). Before you can say man this gun isnt all that great, its even made out of plastic, but at lease its dirt cheap. Now though for close to the same price you can get a all around gun that'll last from starter up to even decent rec-ball use. Back then I wouldnt say it but now i can seriously believe compared now to what you can get for the same price b.e current markers just sucks.

just wondering, but how did a three word post turn into a 3 page thread?
well i have to tell you... one time i was gonna buy a few pump guns that me and my friends could play with just because i was looking for something different in paintball. all the stuff was made by brass eagle. it was going on ebay, three guns, 10 twelve-gram co2 things, 2 hoppers (they are cheap to get a new one) and extra stuff like tools, instructions, and all that good stuff. 2 of the guns ere pump and one was semi auto. all of this was like $12. i didnt get it because someone ended up paying $40 for it. thats not that bad for three guns though. but the point is, if they were expensive pump guns they never would have been going for $12 and would never have evem thought about it. im still thinking about going to walmart and getting one today. if it werent for brass eagle, i would have considered playing pump retarded since pump guns cost just as much as most semi-auto guns (even if only an eradicator or spyder victor)
so yeah the moral of the story is cheap DOES = good
they shure as hell aint the best markers around but they dont suck.
Again, for the Nth time, COMPARED TO WHAT? Your comment is useless without a relative example of why you think this way.

if you ask any paintballer if brass eagles suck most of them will say yeah but when they first started paintballing they used a stingray (like me) blade, talon etc. but none of us cared we used we just wanted to play.most younger kids feel like they have the best gun. anyway i had a stingray and a blade 02 the stingray was inacurate but it would always work. the blade was acurate but broke like on the second week of continuouis play. no they do not suk poopypants go play wit ur e-99
i think brass eagles are the only guns that you get more than what you pay for. You pay 15 bucks for a gun. The gun can shoot, and you can actually win games if you are good enough with it. think about other guns. timmies, trixes, angels all cost over 1000. How much is that gun actually WORTH when it comes to what it delivers? Thats impossible to tell, but it sure as hell isnt $1500.
Yeah I agree with you, brass eagle guns do pretty much suck :/ so do their paintballs @.@
Yet you shoot a Brass Eagle gun? I'll bet you use a Brass Eagle mask and Hopper? Yet you think it sucks. Conflicted?

I'm confused... A viewloader orion or whatever it is, is viewloader not a brass eagle. Isn't that like saying a Volkswagon is an Audi. I'm probably wrong but I'm confused.
hehe what a great thread. admins and mods(and regular members) talking about BE stuff. if i had the cash i would be a RM. and i would play w/ it and pwn people w/ it. they watch their faces when they find out they just got pwn'd be a BE gun.
another gun that i would love to have is a mega Z(if i could ever find one for sale). care to help me on that one hp lovecraft?
