??Armotech??

Are Armotech guns good? Or would it be a waste of $600?

Well, Armotech guns are mostly for scenario play. Theyare too heavy and bulky to play speedball or even woods. Basically, when you buy an Armotech you're buying cosmetics. I would advise against it unless you're going to play scenario games.

^Put perfectly by inkjt510. For 600 dollars you could get a nice cocker or a mag. Or a spyder or tippman with tons of upgrades on it and still have money left over.

If your just usign it in your backyard, save 200 dollars and get accuraccy, realism and coolness. www.rap4.com . They aren't field legal becuase you need to use .43 caliber paintballs, but they are cool.

What kinds of upgrades do think I could get for 600 dollars on a Tippmann A-5 or Tippmann 98 Custom?

If you want to buy a tippmann and have $600 this is what I would do:

1.buy 98c with rt installed
2.buy evolution 2
3.buy a new barrell(stock tippy barrels are junk)

(edited for simplicity)

if you pay more than 300 bucks for a gun you would want hpa and a fast loader anyway, and you will need money to play anyway. Just get a speed or trix or somethin

Alright forget about the Armotech (they did change their name to Ariakon). I'm probably going to go for either one of these setups: http://www.xpaintball.com/prottipm98fx.html

-OR-

One of these:

Tell me what you think? (oh and if you want to look at the 'Armotechs', http://www.xpaintball.com/arpaingun.html)
