If you really just want to start out, a Spyder Xtra(around $70) or victorII($50-$60) with 20oztank, V-force goggles or Jt, Grav Hopper can cost as low as 90-120, packaged, which gives room for upgrading such as barrels and just maybe fit a reg. The main difference between the Xtra and Victor II is that the Xtra comes stock with a 12" barrel, beavertail, and mini X chamber.

*Total cost for Victor II package = 90-100*
*Total cost for Xtra Package = 110-120*

Tippy 98s, very dependable guns but i personailty dont like them and its price tag of 120-130 gun only(i perfer to start low and upgrade rather than pay high stock)

*Total cost with equip = around 150-165*

As for going electric try E-forced PMI guns (fishies) or Spyder Imagine, both are very good guns but must remember you would need a faster hopper (revvy or empire would do fine) and a new barrel since the stock 9" leaves something to be desired. - These guns avg between 70-120 dollars (depending on model and year) +40-50 for hopper + 30-35 for a barrel (tho theres nothing wrong with going grav hopper and 9" barrel, i did it with my fishie for a while) .. +40 for tank and mask

*Total cost with mask+tank+hopper= around 115-130 with cheapest fish, and around 150-160 with the spyder*
[add 70-85 for new barrel and electric hopper]

Just to note prices i listed are rough, you can def find cheaper but im just going with avg price range

just a little more....about the piranha stock barrel, they are actually just as good as if not better than a lot of others....only trouble is, they are a tad on the small bore size, making a good paint match a little more difficult to find. if you buy your paint online or at a pb store, not much of a problem...but at a field where you may not be able to BYOP, it can make things suck.

in case you havnt guessed already, i think piranhas are the way to go. standard threaded screws, the easiest gun to tear down that ive dealt with, and their customer service is second to none.

Look online for some beginners package deals. But luckXIII just about sums it up. But it is going to be hard to buy the stuff u need with only 150 bucks.

O i love these questions .

ok heres what you do. Get a spyder victor for 55$. A hopper for 5$. Your set up to 60$. With 20$ you can buy a PMI xray mask. Not to shabby. With 70$ left you can get a 20 0z co2 tank for 20$ leaving you with 50$. Then you can get 500rnds of paint for 15$ to try out your gun. And with the rest you can sqeeze out a proggressive barrel. Then do the home mods and your gun will run like a 250$ gun. Simple as that.

Spend the most money you can on a mask. YOu'll regret having a crappy mask.

Go for a package. They have a Spyder Imagine pack for $200 and it comes with everything. They have Tippman 98 packs for about $130 which are good too. You can't get much with single stuff for only $150.

~~~Glad To Help~~~
