High campers,

Often asked question I know but;

I've got £250 to blow on a marker, hopper and bottle, going to be used for rec. balling at local sites.

What would you buy, and why? or what wouldn't you buy, and why not?

Ta,

Without any question whatsoever it has to be the Inferno T3 Terminator.

We sell it with a 3 year parts and labour warrenty.

It doesn't get better than that

Now that looks like a nice system, more so when you are throwing in hopper and all when combo'ed up.

What are your thoughts on the JT Excellerator 6.0 Paintball Marker ?

To be honest I'm not likely to be holding onto it for that long :rolleyes:
Although having read all the posts about the JT6, the numerous chopping reports have put me off slightly, I just fancied a marker that talked to me :D

Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh to many choices.

Game Face / Diablo E-Rex Elite DME3 Paintball Marker ?

Can an electronic marker be used with a gravity fed hopper? pros / cons, dicuss ;)

They can but tend to chop. I suspect this is the problem people have been having with the JT 6.0 as we have not found them to chop at all.

Always go for an electro hopper

Thanks,

There goes another 60 quid from the budget,although for a starter hopper the VL quantum looks like a good buy

OK,

The funds I was expectng haven't happened, so I have limited finances.

But can afford a Game Face / Diablo E-Rex Elite DME3 Paintball Marker, will the quantum hopper suit?

Sent another pm to you sir

ARSE, and I qoute

"Dear Jeff

Unfortunatly we only allow guns that are of a similar type to the
Tippman 98
which we use on site mainly because the other customers complain if
somebody
has a different gun. We would allow the use of it if your group was
playing
by themselves and nobody in the group minded.

Hope this answers your question if you would like any more info please
feel
free to call me "

Living in Leicester,

Mainly play at Chaos at Husbands Bosworth.

I've fired off emails to my other two local sites (Rebel @ Ratby and Skirmish J20) to see what they say.

This has majorly pissed me off.

Oh and whats a walk on?:rolleyes:

Bloody Whisper

A walk on day is when you take all your own equipment:D and play against other people who also have there own gear and don't mind what type of marker you use. great fun :cool:

Scott,

Sent you a pm, seems like a local site do walk on and allow own markers on normal days by prior arrangement :D

So if you've still got it, I still want it.

Please accept my apologies for pissing you about. :rolleyes:

Wooooohooooooo,

Arrived this morning, all present & correct and well packaged.

I thank you.

Looks like a cracking piece of kit, I'd best get gassed up and go and have a play.

I will say without a doubt you will not be dissapointed with it!

its mega fast you will probably have to get a slightly faster hopper than the revi i sent with it if it starts to chop

Scott :D
