Need helping choosing a gun!
Hello, i'm new to paintball. I used to go a lot and rented the guns, but it got expensive. I started airsofting and enjoyed it a lot, it was a lot cheaper. Two years later I had a $700 gun, and I want to get back into the paintball groove. I got $600 to spend want a gun, hopper, and tank.
Guns I was looking at:
08 ego- Found it for $280 working.
DM11 with rotor- Found it for $550 working.
Ego Geo- Found it for $450 working
Ego 10 with a tank and hopper- Found it for $700 working
Which one should I get?? Or do you have any recommendations? Thanks, Dylan.

Go to the reviews section on the forum. Everyone will have a different opinion as to which guns is best, so your best bet is to go read the reviews previously posted.

Well if the marker works and is in good condition, I would highly suggest it.

make sure you have: a good mask, good tank, good hopper first, then choose your gun. if a local gun comes with 2 or3 of those then its fine; but dont be cut short of good gear since your more then likely use them much much longer then your gun

Those are all good deals... If you don't buy the dm11 and rotor for $550 hook a brother up...
But to answer your question the 08 Ego is the gun to buy at that price if your looking for a poppit, and the dm11 with rotor for 550 if you want a spoolie. All are solid deals those are just the two that really jumped out a me.

well it is recommended that you change your lens every year and your tank has to be re-tested every 3-5, years so unless you are assuming he is going to use the gun less than 3 years this is not good advice, at least not how its presented. If you get a sweet deal do not pass it up to go buy a mask, just be sure to get yourself a good/excellent mask before you go or you wont enjoy yourself as much.
