Advice for an affordable beginner to inter. gun

Hey guys, I think I'm finally ready to get my own gun. Unlike my friend Miro, I don't have rich parents who don't give a shit, so I need something reliable and affordable that I won't have to replace in a few months. Lithium, I know, "quality and cost don't go together," but I'm just looking for an intermediate class gun. Make sense? I really don't care about a $90 HOPPER, AT THE MOMENT, I'm fine with the simple and clean.

So come on guys, help me out here. And it's getting increasingly difficult to make these posts while listening to music. Weird.

Yeah man, I watched a few of those videos and the gun looks like a piece, but I was amazed at the performance. Good starter gun.

It's funny, because I went to Xdrenaline and asked the guy, and he said the same thing. So now that I have a few users' opinion, I'm probably going to go with the vibe. I LOVE that trigger on the Vibe. SP-1 had a good feel, but the trigger was the deciding factor for me. And plus, I will probably be more of an airballer anyhow.

well depending on positions you play and a good price range you have i would say some pretty good starter, great priced guns would be a:

1.redz ion= seen them shhot very sufficiant gun and i don't see very many problems with ions especially a redz

2. 07 PMR (proto Matrix Rail) very nice gun this one i actually used for 3 months the stock trigger sucks just get and ultralight frame and attatch the ultralight trigger to the gun it shoots like a drem
(EXTREMELY LIGHT GUN THAT CAN BE UPPED LIKE CRAZY)

3.depending on how much you want to spend Dm4 and Dm5's I think are pretty good i had a Dm4 upgraded to be about a Dm6 but if you are willing to spend about 350$-400$ bucks for one i would say do it although a Dm is full of O-rings and in some cases the break alot while you are playing but very cheap and as long as you have o-rings you can always lube em' and put them back on

soo those are my opinions
Pm if you would like some more tips/tricks/ or gun info.

PMR, Mini, base SFT Shocker. I'd need to have a price range to answer accordingly. I'm not against Ions, but I think you can get a much better gun for only slightly more.

I had a PMR and I loved it. It's super light and shoots fast and accurate. My girl has a Mini and it works just as well if not a bit better. Mini has more metal so I think it weighs more, but it's more compact.

I'd take a used pm/dm over a new vibe/sp1 any day of the week... looking at 100$ price difference.... and it's worth it.
