well which gun should i get a lot of my friends are getting guns with more than one firing mode so which would be the best?

[martix_agent]

an electronic spyder. take your pick, they're all the same except for the vs2 and vs3. they require high pressure air.

ok so i am down to the vs1, diablo mongoose, or the spyder imagine with those ups..

[txaggie08]

VS1 most definitely.

The big glaring one is the fact the VS1 has eyes while the others don't(unless you modify the imagine...). It also seems to have a bit nicer trigger geometry, and uses threaded feedneck over the tab system(the tab'd ones will wobble after a while...).

This is the basic setup we've had about a dozen new people show up at the field over the last month or two with, and have only had one have one issue(they stripped a screw...that happens on anything..).

Spyder Vs1
VlEyeforce
Either A/S CO2 or HPA
CCM feedneck
Vforce profilers

Iplayed with that setup the other day, I have to tell you it wasn't bad at all. A nicer trigger and lighter micro switch would have made it better...

I just want a nice gun to practice with my team with fr like 3 months before I purchase another gun and start doing tournaments with them. I have like 600 to spend but I have absolutly no idea what to buy. I have been to several paintball places where you rent the equipment and it is always jamming and it basically sucks I love the sport so I want to make sound investments. Is a tippman best to start off with or can someone starting off spend some extra money on a dye?

tippmanns are great for woodsball/ scenario type play, but assuming your team is strictly speedball style, id recommend any electro spyder. Also a Hpa tank and a decent hopper, since you are going to purchase a higher end marker later on, this will save you the trouble of purchasing new equipment later on.
