Lately my friends and I have been going paint balling every week end for about a month and it it getting expensive to always rent a gun, basically I need some advice on a good gun to get. I always seem to get pwnt by the guys who have full auto and whos guns actually shoot strait.


I was looking in to getting a Spyder MR-1/E-MR-1 I only want to spend $250 bucks max and I need the whole package ( Mask Hopper Gun Co2 tank). The two stores I have been looking at are online my friend told me they are always cheaper on the internets.


The EMR-2 
Package http://www.canadianpaintball.com/main/m … ingman.htm on this page is what I was looking at does that have every thing I need, If you want Please recommend me a better package but the retailer HAS to be in Canada. I know I will need an electric feed hopper to fire automatic but I just don't have the cash right now, I cant get a job because of summer school so I am a bit pooched.

This is the other Package I was looking at but it is not an electric marker.

Go for the Spyder II. I have it, it's a great gun. You really don't need a full auto, you just have to pull the trigger really fast.

If you go auto i will castrate your pansy ass right now.

Every paintball sport sans speedball died on that day.

TBH i can outduel auto's with rented guns with relative ease, they think their wall of paintballs will do something when they are landing 10 feet away from me.

I think I had that same gun.... and If you fired too fast the ball would explode in the chamber and you would have to stop and clean it...

If you think Auto is fast, wait till you see markers with ramping capabilities.

I'd go for a Tippmann 98 or A5, or maybe a BT marker.

And whatever you do, never let anyone believe the length of the barrel matters when it comes to accuracy. They're just talking out of their asses.

Also, get a good mask FIRST. No point having a 20 bps marker when you can't see shit due to a foggy lens.
(I recommend the JT Flex-8 or the Empire Events.

Tippmann A-5 with Thermal Lens mask, and co2 tank will run you about 300.

http://www.canadianpaintball.com/main/packages/spy.htm So I decided to go with the E-MR-1 military package it has every thing I need for a decent price.


It docent say if it comes with a barrel squeegee so do you think it will come with one or will I need to order one?

Here:
http://canadianscenariopaintball.com

Check it out and join up.

And yes, if it doesn't come with one, order one with it. I recommend getting one of the fuzzy kind for on field cleaning, and the rubber pull-through for thorough off field cleaning.
The squeegees on the site are quite expensive though..

I'd check if you have any stores in the area.

Same with lube? can I use the same lube I use on my real gun (.22) or do I have to get special lube, or will WD-40 do the trick

There is Canadian tire basically, The pro shops at the paintball fields near me are way to expensive an MR2 just the gun is $300 so its a major rip off




I found an awesome deal on amazon.com that has every thing for like $200, the only problem is would it have trouble getting across the border?

Canadian Tire has hardly any selection when it comes to airsoft/paintball.
Josh, go check out Sports Connection or whatever that store is on Kingsway. Last time I was there, they had some pretty good guns.

I will do, they have guns at XS cargo for $5 but as you would guess they are... Decent fits got 1 its pretty good. Most guns in that Hat are way over priced.

True that man, If the border cops and customs weren't such dicks about Paintball guns and airsoft guns we would be able to get stuff dirt cheap

best deal for the price

A5 or 98 custom are both beasts in their own right, although A5 is moreso

WD-40 will fuck your o-rings up.

Look for Gold Cup.

Ohhh okay.

One thing about the squeegee though..
If it's one of those rubber ones with the discs, you might need to trim them a tiny bit.

I had a real hard time getting it through my barrel without the trim.

..But don't trim it too much. No point in a squeegee if it doesn't perform properly.

Do any of those cheaper guns come with anti-chop eyes? My old gun had one of those and it never once broke paint inside the chamber/barrel. Best feature ever IMO.
