Everyone would love to own a Dye Matrix, an Ego, or some other type of high end gun. But the truth of the matter is that not everyone has that much money to spend on a gun, especially if they aren't going to that frequently. Well for the paintballer on a budget one gun I would recommend is the Spyder Electra. It is an electric marker with a niffty little trigger on it. Kingman calls it the Rocking Trigger which is a pretty good name for it because when you look at it you will notice that I rocks back and forth between two contact points. This allow for a greatly improved rate of fire due to the fact that you are basically using two triggers at once. In order to avoid ball breaks the Electra also comes equiped with Kingman's ACS (anti-chop system). It is a bolt that has a spring inside it, and when the bolt detects and obstruction the spring compresses to avoid chopping. The newer versions of the gun also come with eyes. The two piece barrel also has a rifles bore to improve accuracy.
I have had this gun since winter 2005 and I can honestly say that for the money it is a pretty nice marker. It does have the ability to shoot very fast, and it is fairly decent on air. I would say my only complaint about the gun is that you get a lot of crap at paintball fields when you use one. I've never been told I wasn't able to play with it, but becuase the rocking trigger can shoot as fast as it does, refs are constantly coming over to make sure the gun is on semi. It just gets annoying after a while. Now a days you can get your hands on one of these for under 200 bucks, so if you're low on cash and still wanna shoot fast, this could be the gun for you.
