my friend was wondering if he should get a planet eclipse etek2 or a dangerous power rev-i, he has money for either of them and if he gets the etek2 he's also gonna get a stiffi mamba barrel and either cure 3 bolt or zick kit or both

[Db0ne]

if your going to get all those things for a etek you might as well get a ego 08
so id choose between rev or a ego 8.
I like the poppets better so i'd get a ego. This is 100% up to your friend, both are great markers and no matter what you choose its not going to make a difference in his game.

true, but to make a etek2 into an 08 ego u need a star frame which is $200, but i also recomended the etek2, but if he didnt get any upgrades would u still say th etek2

I'm a spooler fan myself. Rev-I

[jypsie7]

1 vote for etek2, 1 vote for rev-i any1 wana brake this tie?

[cnlax19]

well do you want efficiency, easier on field maintenance, and simplicity or do you want smooth shooting, not as much kick, and quieter shot?

[jypsie7]

he mainly wants accuracy, and easy/ quick maintenance

[Db0ne]

accuracy depends on how good your paintballs are. poppets are easier to maintain

[Riddler236]

yessir. accuracy is based on paint quality, consistency and the user's comfort with the marker.

i know people that swear by poppets and others that prefer spoolies. in other discussions this could be nelson versus sheridan or mag versus cocker. it all boils down to the same thing. there are two words that define every decision in paintball: PERSONAL PREFERENCE.

I'd get the rev-i. Its a spool and like 100 times cooler looking.

No argument 'mags are better than 'cockers and Sheridans trump Nelsons.

lawl.

I think this is enough .....
I do agree with you. Those are the most effective way

Dude the ego 9 are now 899 you can get one of those for 50 more then the rev-I and he wouldn't even have to upgrade it. If you can shoot both though and see which feels better to you. I personally love spool valves and have like 4 of them but i have friends that love they're poppets....mines still better haha. Jk. But still i would try both if possible.
