Vibe Upgrades
I know this should be in the smart parts forum but I decided to put it here because I am a new player. But anyway I am getting a Smart Parts Vibe and I was wondering what upgrades I should get. I was thinking either the Firebolt or the TechT L7V2 bolt, maybe a new barrel depending upon the stock one and possibly a 360 QEV.
Thanks

If your parents don't pay for you paint ball equipment, then put this in your sig.

Start with a better barrel and decent hopper. Try that for a while and spend the rest of your money on good paint, air tank and field fees. Practice, practice and practice tons more to get good and that would be my first recommendation anyway over spending cash on upgrades. The Vibe is a great starting marker as it is stock. Barrel upgrades always help most any entry level marker so thats a good start. After not playing much in over 20 years (pump guns of course) I'm getting a SP-1 or Vibe myself.
Have fun and enjoy!

Cool, I don't paint ball that often so I try to keep my budget low, and the vibe is just a great gun for what you pay. Keep me posted on your gun upgrades wise.

If you like the low-force bolt, than you don't want a QEV.
The L7 is fine as well, great bolt from an amazing company, much better than a FireBolt.
And I agree with the above, get a better barrel first and good hopper first. For the price, the VL Eye-Force can't be beat.

Your welcome Chancey! I noticed nobody had replied to you yet so I thought I would stop lurking and post for ya'. Have fun and let me know how you like your new Vibe. BTW try and get a cheap air tank and not Co2 due to compressed air being better for the marker overall even though you can safely run Co2 in the Vibe with that reg. Better to spend the $50-60 for a steel tank than $30ish on Co2 overall I think. Also dont forget to change the dwell setting on your Vibe to compressed air because the stock out of box setup is for Co2. You will burn through air in a hurry with the wrong setting on that thing...

I would personally save up and get a fiber tank, I hate steelies.
Just get a CO2 tank and get a Fiber tank when you get enough money, a CO2 tank should only be about $20 new, so that won't take too much from your fiber tank.

yeah that is great advice. co2 tanks aren't expensive at all. don't pay more than $30.
