well. . . . i want an imagine . . . but may decide to get an E-99

i would put this in 'gun comparisons', but i think ppl here would know more about the diffs

what is the difference between the two besides price?

E-99 Avant $145 Imagine '04 $119

thank you for any info . ..

*EDIT* i know that the E-99 has a drop forward .. is that a big issue anyways?

**wackwar** · January 5th, 10:02 PM

get the imagine, they are basically the same gun at diff prices

**Tw1sted-** · January 5th, 10:03 PM

get an imagne pretty much same thing

**Snowsk5054** · January 5th, 10:20 PM

Yup, Imagine.
The imagine has top cocking that dosent get in the way...the e-99 cocking sticks out the back, which requires a beaver tail so you dont break your mask...I would go with the imagine, also cuz its cooler looking...

**epsilonbass** · January 5th, 10:36 PM

the e-99 also comes with the nice breakaway feedneck (plastic) so if you get angry at your hopper during a game and smash it into a bunker you wont have to deal with the hopper anymore. Oh and the e-99 also has that beautiful sliver splatter design. All the rage in the early 90's. Seriously.... get the imagine, and buy a drop forward... so much better.

Just curious, why do people always tell me to get a drop for my vic 2? Is it because the stock drop is not tilted?

**kidpaintballer** · January 6th, 06:14 AM

you want to get a drop because it buts the tank down further, so its not in your way. but back the the guns, i would get the imagine because they are the same excat thing!

Side cocking

And yes go for the imagine. The big difference between the 2 is e-99 has dip switches and the imagine uses the ipi system, and e-99 has a beaver tail.

**Twistedpain** · January 6th, 02:56 PM

Its basically which guns design you perfer I like the e-99 others like the imagine but there is basically no difference in their performance

**paintballer1134** · January 6th, 09:32 PM

Like everyone says I would get the imagine over the E-99 cause there are basically the same gun so you can use the money you saved on some ups or somthing.

**prodigykid#34** · January 6th, 10:39 PM

get an imagine there smaller ,lighter, and very reliable to me,low profile, but watch the sight rail it can be sharp i took mine off i think it looks better

yeah ive been told to file it down

also does it even help??? it is vert. feed . .. soooo how does it help?

**Badinflewinse** · January 7th, 01:16 PM

It doesn't, it serves no purpose other then looks.

**ImpulseDragon** · January 7th, 02:29 PM

Wait...correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the Imagine internal cocking? So far people have said it's top cocking and side cocking...but I'm pretty sure it's internal cocking because it's enclosed by the sight rail excpet for the sides which are just big enough to get your fingers in to cock it.

But yes, go with the Imagine, that's my biased opinion

**Tw1sted-** · January 7th, 02:45 PM

i thought the imagne is considered flush cocking . . .

**ImpulseDragon** · January 7th, 02:47 PM

Well when I ordered my ACS bolt it said that with an Imagine you must order the Internal Cocking Bolt. Maybe it is considered flush...I dunno

**Snowsk5054** · January 7th, 03:53 PM

I say top cocking, cuz its on the top of the gun

**spydershutter68** · January 7th, 07:17 PM

go with the imagine

steveomonster · January 7th, 10:22 PM

man, go with the e-99

btw, I thought a rodeo was better? is it?
