: : A buddy on my team will sell me his 2k Stock Angel with Dye bolt and a few other extras on it I can't remember off the top of my head. It has about 12k cycles on this board (3k are mine from saturday)so I think it's a new board. For like $550

: That sounds like a pretty good deal. One of the scary things about buying used, is knowing the quality - if you've already been using it, you've got that knocked down.

It's pretty sweet, but I didn't feel like it was quite consistant enough (accurate enough) for whaen I play in that back, I even had trouble when i took it home (by 'home' I mean up front)

: : I could buy a new matrix for $600ish but I dont think I'll get the needed shots per fill off of my 68/4500 and I don't really want to buy a new tank ...

: What are your needed shots per fill? The performance on the new Matrix paintguns is MUCH better, because they've gone to a more efficient bolt, and they close the spool valve sooner (the original model held it open, still venting gas after tha ball had already left the barrel).
I need at least 7pods and a hopper from my 68/4500 if I'm playing in the back, upfront, I dont really care. But my primary job on my current team is playing cover man.

: : I could save my money and buy something newer and flashier ... but I dont feel I can justify spending more than 1k on a single piece of kit ...

: Ack! Becoming a writer for Paintball Games International, is infecting your vocabulary! Since when do we, blue blooded yankee doodle dandies have "kit"?!?!

: OK - I admit the spelling dictionary on my e-mail program is British, and it's got me typing aluminium, and the coulour grey :-)

Yes, PGI ... and thier message boards ... have really screwed with my vocabulary, eh m8?

: : As for Barrels, if I get an angel I was going to get one of the CP sets (JT, Dark, or CP, maybe mix and match) if I stay with the cocker I'm planning on getting a freak set that way I can change out the back section later if needed.

: The CP kits are great. I do see a big plus to the Freak if you own a few paintguns in that you can just pick up a new back for the other paintgun and still use all the inserts, not just the tips.

I compleatly agreewith you there.

: : Any advice would be much appreciated.

: Well there's my two cents.

Thanks man, you rock.

: See you on the field,
: -Bill
So bang for my buck, Matrix?

thanks again.

-Micah
