Phantom or Sniper?

BigBalla23 · 06-25-2007, 07:57 PM

I am looking to buy a pump, either a sniper II with a barrel kit (suggestions would be great) or a phantom. I play mostly woodsball. Any help would be great.

Either will treat you very well. Personally, I like to be able to sight down the barrel on an autococker, so RF is a must. If I had a choice between a mid range sniper and a mid range phantom, I'd take the sniper just becasuse I love the silence and feel with the right parts.

You can never go wrong with a Phantom, though.

Russ is correct, they're both good choices. The Phantom does offer more configuration options, but if you want to run open class pump (hopper + tank) anyway then a Sniper affords you more barrel options.

Seriously, since you're here at MCB you might as well get one of each.

Ditto.... one of each.

Try both and see what fits you best.

Peace

After years of experimentation I still use my original phantom.... and my PM-1....

This is almost a pbn'ish question.. lol.

I would say if you havn't been playing pump for verry long, and still want the security of being able to switch it back to semi, or even openclass from stockclass, the sniper is for you. The options for customization are huge, and they do feel really really good
