personally i would get the imagine... but thats just me. you need to decide for yourself here because thats a really close call between 2 really similar guns. the piranha has a higher feedneck and i think the overall looks of the imagine are better... and the carrying case is a plus. theyre both going to give you pretty equal performance, and i didnt think i would ever find myself saying this, but just get whichever one looks better.
i think its what you put on the gun that makes it better. the hopper, barrel, and whether or not you use co2 or hpa, are going to affect your performance more than the gun will.
