What was the last new marker you purchased?

[Daltech]

Swooped this thing off eBay. Took a little bit of love to make it work and few all nighters. It brought me back to my teenage years taking it all apart and finding parts endlessly until finally it is now flawless. Players marker for sure, but to me; flawless.

You should check out the 3M I held one at OSG last weekend and it’s right in the middle of needing upgrades and expensive. It’s basically an emek with all the upgrades people do strait out the box. They all use the same engine so it will shoot awesome. It’s got the short valve adjustable trigger pops and a quick release bolt. Oh and the aluminum body looks great!

I'll add an Emek or 170r to my bag at some point.

But the likelihood of my buying those new is slim.

Used A-5 in mint condition, for really cheap. I intend to keep it as stock as possible (with the exception of the barrel eventually perhaps).
Got a CCI Phantom on order.

Just sold my Etha 2. I'm keeping my FLEd, fully customized Emek as my main gun for the foreseeable future.
Down the pipeline I've got my sights on the newest gen Enmey (and therefore sell my first gen version), and either a LV 1.6 (or wait until the LV 2?... methinks it's coming sooner than later) or a special ed of the 170R.

Emek, MG100, Etha 3M.

Very true, but we do buy a lot of masks, parts and accessories, I would thing much more than the average person buying a new gun.

[Tarsun2]

its funny when we here complain about a new marker coming out... the manufacturers probably just laugh. its not like were all buying new markers anyways lol

[Meleager7]

except maybe eclipse, the only new off the shelf gun this gang seems to be buying are emeks !

[zinger565]

All 4 of them left?

[Meleager7]

Man, the new gun manufacturers must be cursing under their breath " ....those MCB old farts never buy any new guns!!! " ?

[zinger565]

Wait, pre-loved? I thought we were rescuing those poor markers from abusive homes!

[JeeperCreeper]

I've only ever bought 2 unmolested, brand new markers. An Imagine and an Ion back in 06. Everything else I buy pre loved.

The last marker I bought new was a Typhoon from Glenn Palmer in 1991.

Since then every marker I've upgraded to has been from someone taking pity on me for playing with such old gear

[Myrkul]

I bought an Invert Mini GS in like 2016 when I was getting back into paintball after a couple year break for college... I hated it. Damn thing never broke down, needed zero tuning, and barely needed any cleaning. Quickly realized there was zero point to even owning it and sold it. All my guns are pre 2k6 now and I'm MUCH happier.

[bellicose]

Same. The last two markers I bought new were phantoms, all from Mike himself. I guess one of them is a Phantom Revolution, but still a phantom.
