NEW TO PAINTBALL (need help)

GUN HELP (1)

Hi guys im new here and im new to paintball. Im looking for a new gun and thinking of a Diablo Mongoose or a Tipman 98 custom. I want to get all my stuff for about 100-200$.


The Sport (2)
I have been paintballing once, I was really nervous I almost pooped my pants. The first game I went into I stood behind cover and faked getting shot because I was so scared I think I was 11. The second time I went in I moved around and got shot right in the shoulder and it didnt hurt one bit, felt like a punch then a mild sting.

Can someone help me with my new gun?

Both the mongoose and the 98 are good markers, they won't fail you. But the 98 is more for woodsball, the mongoose i use for either but it's a speedball marker more than anything.

You have to decide what you're going to use it for.

Also consider the mechanical spyders like the sonix, victor or xtra if you're only going to play around a few times a year.

I'm playing to go alot this summer. Maybe doing some woods ball but mostly just indoor paintballing. So far I'm getting the Mogoose marker but I dont know which hopper I should get or which tank I should get. Any Ideas?

Get a co2 tank, either 12, 16, or 20oz. Something like the eye force would work great but if that's too much then choose the classic reliable 12volt revolution. DO NOT buy an evolution II, they're not as quick as they say.
