New Gun

OK first of all i would like someone who knows this site better to redirect this to the correct spot because i cannot find it.

OK, I know i have made earlier posts about guns i wanted to get but i cant decide
OK, I am saving up for a new gun but i dont know which one to get, I dont want to spend more than 500$ on the gun
The reason i am getting a new gun is I am sick of all my "friends" saying that my gun sucks and that theirs is so much better so i want a gun that is better than BT-4 Combat, Icon C, Icon X, Spyder Sonix, and Stryker STR-1
I know this sounds selfish and stuff like that but it is really annoying.

Lookin for your Advice!!!

Great reliable gun. Just get a better barrel, and expansion chamber if your going to use CO2. Its more of a woodsball gun than anything. Its great, I have one. Read the sig and you'll see my specs. J&J Ceramic is a great choice. An egrip is my favorite upgrade. If you plan on getting one, get a JCS Dual/blade trigger and a APE RAMPAGE Board. It has stronger wiring, its advertised as weather resistant, never played in rain with it yet.

Like everyone said, your pretty much paying for just a extra milsim look, if you play a lot of scenario its probably good, but the barrels arent that great. You can buy one and upgrade a little more, or you can just buy a Expansion chamber mag with a M4 stock and shroud and it'll look like one close enough.

well what type of player are you? I'm not talking "aggressive or sniper" i'm more interested in "weekend warrior" or occasional rec player with tournament aspirations, etc.

If you mean once a month, then I wouldn't go dumping a whole lot of money into upgrading a marker (whichever you get). I'd suggest (painfully) a Tippmann A5, or 98 Custom. They both accept CO2, and will work fine for you. Spend the extra money that you had for upgrades to get yourself a nice mask (VForce Profilers, JT Flex 8, DYE I3, etc.). You should never mess with your safety.

Thats why I asked if he was a scenario player.

if your only going to play once a month then yeah don't spend too much money on milsim, you can do better with the extra money instead of spending an extra 200 for looks. J&J Ceramic, X Core 8 stage expansion chamber, are the best upgrades next to EGRIP, but if your going to play once a month then just get performance upgrades like I stated (barrel ect ect)

Those are nice upgrades, but a little over the top for a once-a-monthe player, don't you think? If you do get any or all of those upgreades, make sure that you have the cash to get yourself a decent mask. As I said before, safety is the most important.

Well if he has enough money for a 400 dollar gun then he has enough for a $30 barrel and a $30 Expansion Chamber. Thats all that a co2 user really needs or else it will freeze up the orings and temporarily malfunctioning. I also said next to the egrip, but with that 85 bucks you can get a good mask and a 20oz tank for $14.

Just buy the regular A5 first, and then as you start playing more, start putting a little bit more money into it. It may seem like a great idea now to splurg and spend the money now, but as you get older (I'm assuming you're relativly young which I actually have no right to assume), you're going to become interested in other things, leaving you with a really nice, expensive gun you don't really need/use.
