I always see Etha's for sale/trade on the BST, so I am assuming not a lot of people like them, but then your other option is a DP gun which are known to be unreliable.

My Solution? Get an Axe or an Ego 7/8.

My upper limit is 350. I want to get a new gun simply due to warranty and reliability.

I wouldn't get a g5 just yet.
Etha is a nice marker but I think the axe is much better. You can find axes for 300$.

Hey Chem Co is back. I don't get why people don't like etha l like them and what planet eclipse is trying to do, maybe the people saying the vibration and the ping when the bolt moves are driving people away

Chem what field?

I see way more people selling Ethas then owning them. I know about 10:1 ratio of Axe owners to people selling theirs.

How much would an old ego go for? And a new axe?

I sold my near mint Ego 8 for 325, with an extra OOPS ASA with it, the original two piece barrel, the plastc hard case it came in, and the barrel bag.

Axes? Stock you could probably get one for 350 for LNIB.

Up to you really.

Shoot an AXE Before you buy one (or in a pinch, a Mini, just imagine the trigger is much nicer and the gun is longer) some people don't like the ergo's of the front grip, so that might throw you off.

I liked my Ego, but I felt like my Axe was smoother which was nice, and I sold my Ego.

Honestly, I wouldn't take a Mini as an example of the Axe. I had them both, and the Axe is a FAR superior marker.

Axe shoots WAY better than ego 8. Hell I think better than an ego10. However the ergonomics can be weird. You just have to get used to it. I see axes around 325$ everywhere.

Or, you could just not bother with either the Axe or Mini and get a decent gun instead.

Sexy Gun, needs more red lol.

Thinking about getting another Axe (preferably something in blue and white or in Purple and another color) and either making a Captain America Axe, or a Hulk'ed out Axe.

I'm a Comic Nerd lol.

I was visiting relatives in Missouri and they wanted to go balling so I brought my gear on the plane. I think the place was called jaegers paintball. It was an old salt mine which they bought.
