Dragun T1 vs Tippmann 98c flatline

I have $260 to spend on a gun for my son. First he wanted a 98c flatline, then he wanted an A5, now he wants a T1, and definitely DOESN'T want the 98. Reading about the A5, I think you'd have to get a flatline to make it a decent gun which would put it over the cost mark.

My question is: Is the T1 really a better gun than the 98c flatline? Or is it just the newer/cooler/flashier gun-of-the-day factor?

Or let me put it this way: If you had exactly $260 to spend, what gun would YOU get?

t1 is def the best gun out of them, the a5 is just a 98 with a revy built in which is not worth the money, and the flatline is nice but it really only works if u hit something hard when ur that far away, so the one is def the best it has an eye its electro and it rips so t1 would be ur best bet

you would have to also spend ~150$ on a hpa because c02 isnt tha way to go with the t1, unless u get a 20oz anti-siphoned

i wouldn't get the t1 marker but just get the step down T.E.S. and a cheap nitro tank, and revy he'll be fine, hopefully that doesn't go over or are you going to spend more for accessories like mask, hopper, and tank?

W3rd. You'll get d-bombed for that kinda stuff; I've seen it happen.

The One is a great gun. If you could find it for the cabbage you're willing to spend, then I'd do it. However, if you need an HPA tank, a Mask, and a hopper, a TES would be your best bet. I found a place where they're selling TES' with a Halo TSA LCD Backman for $190. PM me or email me @ TheConMan41@yahoo.com for the link.

Hope I helped!

EDIT -- DO NOT GET A TIPPY!

Go with the Tippt 98C w/ flatline its slightly cheaper which lets you get a double triiger and decent hopper.

NO omg NoobShooter your first 16 posts have been telling people to get "Teh Uber Leet Woodsball SNipezors"

The One is a Great Starting Electro

It has Eyes, witch is a must, and can easily be walked for 15+bps.

260 might be able to get a used BKO, also a Good Mid End Electro.

PM me for more details...There is alot of bad Information floating around here.

A TES would definatly be a good choice what it is is a spyder clone so it is easy to work on and can be very fast I am currently trying to sell mine it is very reliable I can let it go for 160 with a Evo II hopper
