Should I buy this, or wait?
i don't know if this is in the right forum...
Well i'm on the market for a new gun, and i found an 03 bko w/o PDS. the guy was asking for $95, but then he milled the body a bit, so now he's asking $125. is this worth it? i might be able to get the price down a bit. i'm not a serious player, although i would like to be in the future. i was looking to wait for a used etek ego, but seriously, right now i don't know if i want to be spending that kind of money right before college. i was thinking that maybe i should buy this, then wait for college and see where i am, and maybe buy a new marker then. this seems to make sense since 125 for a gun is like nothing.
as a summary: i don't have enough $ to buy a gun in the $400 range yet. in a few months i will, but i figure, why not buy this, and wait til next school year (college)....
your help is much appreciated.
again, i dont know if this is the right forum, but i cant think of anywhere else to post it...

Stay away from ICD guns in general. Wait a little and buy a used DM or PM.

BUY IT SO YOU CAN USE IT AS A BATHROOM. SERIOUSLY PEE DOWN THE BARREL AND IN THE BOLT AND IN THE HOPPER.
has any one heard of a brand called Black Maxx , they sell for around 50 buks new, its the cheapest semi auto in the market, THEY ARE WORSE THEN THE BLOW GUN PAINTBALL GUNS.

i guess it depends on your situation - honestly - i would wait, but if you're going to play a lot and you're having to rent your marker and spend an extra $20 each time, and spending a hundred extra every five games, or anything like that i could see how this would be a lot better...
not only that, but then you'll have a maker...
but if you're not playing a lot i would suggest waiting until you are in a situation to play more... buying a better marker will be a much more sound investment and you'll be glad you did. not just on the fact that it'll shoot like a dream, or sell for more - but if you decide you want to play more you wont have to fork up another couple of hundred dollars (you dont need to) in order to get a marker that you'll need to suit your game.
so, imo wait. but you should think more about your situation than just our opinions.
