Well trying to get a good, quality electric marker. Preferably new, but used is ALWAYS and option. I would like to spend under 200. My goal is to try and get an invert mini, but i don't know too much about other guns. I want something without too much maintenance,but has a nice trigger and bolt. Preferably no macro line.

GoG eXTCy would be great for 250, but for under 200, the GoG eNVy is your best bet. But if you got the envy to the same level as the eXTCy is, then it'd go for more than the eXTCy. They are the same in terms of shooting quality, just that the eXTCy comes with an on/off ASA, clamping feedneck, longer barrel for ease of aiming, a better trigger, and the blackheart board. Why the Mini? It's not the greatest marker ever, nor is it really that great. It's alright at most.

the mini is on par with the GOG guns IMO. All aluminum, macroless, super easy maintenance, clamping feedneck and cocker threaded barrel,

that said you could also look at say a used promaster or PM5

I agree, which is why I said that the Mini isn't really the best gun for the value. For some reason, a ton of players believe the Mini is the end all marker which is the best a player can get that's not a pro or a rich kid who gets those $1,000 guns. I always hear this at fields, and, this isn't me bashing the mini, because it's fine if you like to end your gun buying at the mini if it works great for you, but it's really not the best gun out there, even for that price, or in that price range. It's not too far away from an Axe, or an Alien, or a Reflex Rail, or a Drone DX.

Hmmm. How much is the Extcy?

[BurningPlaydoh]

If youre thinking about a Mini save up for a used Axe. Otherwise I would highly suggest the eXTCy.

[recklessbob]

It is possible to find pm8s for around 200. Personally think it is a great marker for the price you wil be very please with the performance

[tallsmallboy44]

Going used is your best bet.

[Mike:)]

So is the extcy a good option?

[Mike:)]

Plus can't find the extcy used on ebay :|

One thing mike pointed out though is that the regulator is a b*tch to take apart. What do you think about that?

[bassfisher]

I.would vote for.the proto rail. Definately my favorite budget gun.

You don't really need to take it apart much. If you want to, just send it in to gog and they do it for you. But still, it's a great marker. You only need to do maintenance on a reg every couple ton of cases, so its fine for a while.

I second that. I got a Refurbished 2011 Proto Rail From Paintballgear.ca for $160 that came with full 1 year warranty and it is awesome, at ebay you can find refurbished markers from that retailer under the seller paintballgear_ca

If you would prefer new than I would recommend the Azodin Blitz. It is an excellent marker for around %169 or $179. Compared to the GoG Extcy, the blitz will get a little better efficiency and have easier maintenance, but it will be a little louder (not by much) and have a little more recoil (not by much).

Also the Extcy is $249 and the Blitz is $154.

Rail, love mine.

Personally I think the Dangerous power e1 is grat for the price but I nightly recommend a used DP g4 or some used mid-high end

The e1 does not come with a clamping feedneck, nor does it come with modes for speedball. The G4 is a kicky and loud system, and is easily overrun by the preformance of a rail or extcy. Dp guns normally have great features, but bad shot quality due to a bad engine design.

[stefan_rj]

Save up another $50 and go for the Proto Rail! Absolute best marker for the price!

DP guns are leaky and cheap.

The E1? Really? What's he gonna do with 2 firing modes?

-Semi

-25BPS FULL AUTO? (DP what were smoking?)

E1's a piece of crap. Don't even think about it.
