also i'm thinkin about buyin a lot of paintballs and i need to know if a better hopper should be used.....i was wonderin because someone told me since that gun has lower strength you probaly wont need a automatic hopper or anything. Also you could pick out a nice barrel for me off amazon. i no about paintball guns and how to take care of them. i just dont know how to buy them.

kingman is a great brand for a starter gun,but at paintballgear.com u can get a better price for that same gun.
For a hopper a gravity hopper is good for now.
for the barrel i would recommend a j&j ceramic barrel, becouse it will clean itself after 5 or 6 shots.

Well for a first gun that would be an ok pic. If you want something that u can upgrade go with a tippmann. As for buying lots of paintballs thats not a good decision because you wont use them all at once and they will go bad. As for a hopper faster is always better but faster means more $. I recommend a viewloader evolution 2(aka an egg) As for a barrel for a cheaper very good quality go with a custom products barrel. for good prices and all of your paintball needs go to www.pbgear.com im sure amazon has all that stuff too

I hate to tell you but that gun sucks, so do the tippmanns. save up some more money and get a Spyder VS2. the spyder you were looking at says that is max rate of fire is 13 balls per second, but with the mechanical trigger you will be luck to get 5 balls per second out of it. The Vs2 has a electronic trigger, it is alot easier to pull, you can get a higher rate of fire out of it. as for a barrel i would suggest a dye ultra light or a Freak kit. as for a hopper i would got with an Evolution 2.

Hello, with a low budget it like that you will probably only be able to get a gun. It will be better for you to get a used speedball gun like the Etek 2, Proto Maxxed Rail, Mini etc. but you will have to buy an electronic hopper to keep up with the speed of your gun. Also if you use CO2 you will have to buy an air tank. If you can't afford everything at once. Buy the tank then the Gun then the hopper

Trade up to a Tippmann...excellent rate of fire and no need for the add on's. Great product...used to work at Dick's sporting goods and everyone loved theirs. All other manufactures needed add on's to compete w/Tippmann. Good luck w/your search and w/the new paintball club
98 Custom is in your price range and will come as a complete set.

honestly with 160 it's going to be a little hard to find yourself a nice competitive paintball marker. i would say to check out sites like pbnation.com and go to their listings of people selling ions. the ion is a good gun that usually runs like 250 new. however you can probably score yourself an upped ion for 100-130. then have a little money left over for a few little knick knacks. good luck
