if you HAVE to buy a gun in that price range the vibe is the best but you should save up $200 and get an SLG.

That's a pretty good deal.

I'd shoot it. And I play Semi-Pro Woodsball.

Definitely Vibe. More features for less price. I have shot one, and honestly, I can't tell the difference from it to an Invert Mini to a PM8 to a DM8.

vibe by far, thats a decent deal, slg is much better, but vibe is a great marker.

If you can get an HPA tank when you buy a gun, get the SLG. If you have co2 and cannot afford HPA currently get the vibe then save up. If speed is a problem buy an 08 electra or 08 pilot. They will be faster and still accept co2.

I would personally go with the SP Vibe rather than the SP Ion. Mike did a really good review of the Vibe. It should be on techpb.com or even look on youtube.com for it. If possible, save up some more money and buy a SLG. It would definitely be worth the extra $50.
