Did you find that site i told you about?

Got any questions (i know you where looking at getting a marker) just post up I'm sure one of us here could help you out.

The Forum name relates to something ages ago when i was a kid and i've always stuck with it XD. and cheers for the help mate speaking of markers i've found a Etek 1 in great condition on that site you recommended to me for £200, whats your opinion?

Welcome mate I'm Badger (Don't let cookie tell you otherwise!)

I may be getting rid of an ego 8 in February job situation depending if you're not in a rush? Would be going up for about £250. But for someone off here it would be for cheaper than that.

How much you looking for the ego mate? Been told there also great guns ^^

would be about £200 - 220. Not sure if I am selling yet though. It's just incase I don't find a job before mid feb

Fair dues, Well i can give you £200 For it but i'll need to know whether or not to keep looking for a gun. but if your selling it just drop me a PM i'll be more than glad to buy it

okay mate well keep looking and I will let you know when I am selling and if you have one you have one

Sounds good mate, cheers.

Heya mate in Graeme nice to wright to you haha I might see you at a practice session

names ross, came to play the other day and really enjoyed it. looking into getting to a few more sessions and get some kit of my own in the next couple of months.

The general consensus on here seems to be to buy a mask first, come to a team training session, and have a blast with a few different markers. Obviously a few markers and brands keep cropping up (proto rail, invert mini etc) but it makes sense to try before you buy.

Cheers for a great day saturday anyway lads, loved it. Look forward to getting more involved in the sport.

Hi Ross names Sly, (ignore the ridiculously preposterous name of 'Midas' on these forums no idea how that arose ) but anyways welcome to the forums Ross yeah good idea, or even come to training without a mask then you can apply the same principle as the marker to a mask, try before you buy, we have a variety of masks although the best and ones i would recommend would be SLY ones, safety first and all that jazz

Although i would recommend a sly mask, ahem, midas!

Welcome mate, yea keep your eyes peeled for whats happening, there should be a training session coming up in the near future! If you email me your mobile number kai[at]kgdonnelly.plus.com i will keep you posted on future training sessions!

A lot of guns to try out so yea keep an open mind with that one!

dunno what your on about Kai

Welcome mate I'm badger.

Always get a mask first as it's the safest piece of equipment. I would definitely recommend SLY masks they are the comfiest mask I have worn and I have worn a few different types. The team has such a wide range of guns that you can try which is just about all guns out there. Hope to meet you sometime in the future.

Hmmm .... maybe it's because EVERYTHING you touch breaks!!!

subtle hints there boys lol sly are dam good masks but there are cheaper on the market. you do get what you pay for though so while I would suggest sly gogs they may not be an option.

Hey Ross I'm cookie (I probably met you on Saturday ) as everyone has mentioned a mask is a good way to go.

Like Kai said drop him a line and get yourself along to a training session.

Welcome btw fella.

Haha! wasn't expecting that many responses cheers for the welcome everyone. Yeah cookie I remember you, I was the daft one on the blue team with the "head kick" lasses haha!

I could wait yeah, I maintain that most gear is buy cheap buy twice, especially since something like a mask will last me a while. It was between a sly mask and a dye one, they both looked good.

I'll email my number or pm it now.

Try before you buy definitely. If you are on a budget look on this site for some second hand stuff.

www.p8ntballer-forums.com

Might be worth it especially for a gat, tank and hopper.

Cool. I'll wait and try a few on then.

Thanks mate, I'll have a click about. I'd definately like to ge a tank second hand, especially if a carbon one comes up.

A LOT come up on there mate just keep looking for a good deal on one

hey buddy, welcome to the forums!
im JD

as every one has said mask first

and when it comes to a marker an Etek 1 for £200 isnt that good, you can probs get a Etek 3 for around £250 to £300 second hand
also if i can get my mini working then you could buy that for £150 need to send it to get serviced grrrrrrrr

I always have spare markers think I have a mini lying in cookies house that needs selling for £150 ish needs a new board to set to the correct bps but I can always come to arrangements if someone wants it

I can pick new boards up for £25 cheap as chips!

wish i knew that when i bought my virtue board jon

you didn't ask lol cookie asked me the other week for one otherwise I wouldn't of known!
