Well, it has been quite a year for this rookie (now novice). As some may
remember, I started here about 9 months ago. I started with a Spyder Victor II and got some good advice here for upgrades. Shortly after that (and much searching), I settle on a Dye DM4 and used that the rest of the year. I did use a PGP Sheridan pistol for some outings (including an all-day stock pump day). After a very cold weekend first of November, I stopped for the season. Shortly after that, I sold my DM4 to buy my son a notebook computer. I foolishly thought I was giving up paintball. Well, you know that can't happen! To keep my budget down, and improve my skills, I plan to be shooting a Phantom next year. It should come in this week and I probably will try some indoor fields. Thanks for the help! |

I'm curious, why not just use that? If you're planning on getting a Phantom, a pump gun, why not just stick with the PGP and save that money, if money is the issue? A baggie of paint and a pair of 12grams will do you all day with a PGP, and it's just as accurate, if not more accurate, than the Phantom. Seems silly to have two fine pump guns when one fine one will do. -- Jeff Goslin - MCSD - www.goslin.info It's not a god complex when you're always right |
