Selecting a Marker for Your Experienced Level
Selecting a marker for your experience level is important for finding a marker that will provide you with a good value for your investment. AS a beginning player, you may be a little more reckless with your marker than the more experienced one, occasionally dropping or mishandling your gun and causing damage to the body. Also, as a newbie, you may not be as efficient at cleaning your marker and gear, causing extra wear and tear. No matter what your experience level is, you may want to select a higher end marker only if you have been playing the game a while, and have decided that you want to make a bigger financial and personal commitment.
The grater your experience level and commitment to the game, the more you may want to commit to your paintball gun, upgrades, and accessories. When you have gotten to the point where you know that you will have a long-term commitment to the game, you will want to go for a more high end model. Until then, you will probably want to choose a marker that is more in the $250 dollar range. While a new or used $250 marker may not have all the beeps and whistles, it will provide you with a reliable machine and hundreds of hours for having fun on the field and learning about the game. When shopping for your first marker, you should spend about $250 for a durable non-electric marker. You should choose a metal non-electric marker, and avoid anything plastic.
There are a number of quality, low end but high quality markers on the market in the $250 price range. Among some of the well built low end $250 price range markers are the Pro Classic from Airgun Designs and the Lightning Deluxe from Psycho Ballistics. The Psycho Ballistics Lightning Deluxe retails for around $250 and features a double trigger, light frame, and nice milling. Other products from Psycho Ballistics include the Superbolt, the Lightning, the Silver Bullet, and the Delta .68. The Delta .68 from Psycho Ballistics is made of a high grade aluminum body, sharp compact frame, and a style that is ideal for games like speedball where players are close to one another. Psycho Ballistics is partnered with the reputable company www.800paintball.com to offer its customers excellent paintball products at excellent prices.
If you are in your first year of playing you may want to select a more low end marker until you have found your natural position on the field and know you will be playing a long time. When playing the game, there are different positions on the paintball field, with different markers appropriate to that position. Some players man the front of the field, some the back of the field, and some in the middle positions. There are even positions such as the rover, who can move into an attack or defensive position as needed. If you are a front player, you are the first teammate to engage the enemy, making a strike for the enemy flag, or trying to bus into the enemy camp. As a front player, you will be covering a lot of ground, driving up the field, and you will want to choose a lightweight marker.
