Looking for gun under $200

TheDude · 01-25-2008, 05:04 PM

I'm trying to get 3 guns for my team mates, specifically trying to spend under $200 each for the gun itself. Looking at the SLG right now, no Wraths or clones though. Any suggestions?

Automag. Great bang for the buck, shoot well as semi. If you need electro-speeds, then they can be tweaked as a pneumag with an intelliframe for an additional hundred and fifty to two hundred later in life.

Just my two cents.

Under 200, SLG is pretty damn good. I'd also look at Promasters...they're sort of on clearance.

I'm very happy with my promaster, and at the price they're going at now you could quite easily pick one up for $100 on ebay if First Call Paintball still have any. They isn't much you need to upgrade on them depending, possible the regulator as some people have trouble with them creeping. They preform well out of the box, although I just picked up the ebay valve and bolt pin for about $30 bucks and noticed a big difference. If you do decide to get on keep in mind you'll need to purchase asa's for them. My only complaint with them is they really are a pain in the butt to take apart because they're manufactured over seas and they love red loc-tite in Asia.

...I had no problem taking apart my Lasoya Promaster. All blue. And yeah, nice gun... the Lasoya version just has a tweak here and there to make it easier to use, has a better board, a bolt that hangs onto the pin, a little weight off the back, nicer ano, and cutouts in the frame to make battery swaps easier by a ton. Annoying trigger, IMO, but the other features, such as the insane number of board settings, more than make up for that.
