Lets play: Gun classification!

We have 3 categories and each category has 3 subcategories. This is more for my own information than a guide for new players but hopefully some of them will use this information to their benefit. Please correct me/suggest other guns to add to the list.

High end
Upper high end
DM4/5
2k4/5 timmies
Vikings
Cyborgs
Newer Angels
Private label matrices
Planet Eclipse EGO
Private label Shockers

Mid High End
Older matrices
Older timmies
Shocker
Freestyle
E2 cockers

Lower High End
Older angels (ir3 and below)
Aftermarket impulses
Regular E-cockers
E-mags


Mid Range Guns
Upper mid range
Impulse
B2k4/5
RT Pro mags
Rainmaker

Mid Mid range
BKO
Mech autocockers
Classic/mini mags

Lower Mid Range
TES


Lower End guns
Upper Low End
PMI Evo
Electro spyders

Mid Low End
Mech spyders
Tippmann's

Lower Low End
Spyder clones
Many Brass Eagle guns

The classification system seems to be based SOLEY on price.
I'm not sure how that really helps newbs.

It was my intention to base it on performance. If I don't have the guns in their proper categories based on performance, by all means, please let me know so I can alter it accordingly.

considering a freestyle is equal if not better than an older trix i also think it deserves to be bumped up another notch. You also are missing newer trixes in the high end category.

i would seperate ecockers...you cant place a superstock and an e2'd karnivor or a turtled cocker in the same group. Same should go for impulses, Strange impies shouldnt be in the same group as a stock, non-vision impy.

criticizime aside, good idea.

Why isn't the shocker in the high end section? Just wondering, cause everything I've heard about them would definately put them with the dm4/5 and new timmy's.
