Is this a good purchase for a new paintball player!?
Hello everyone.I'm new to paintball and I'm set on getting the Alpha Black Tactical.So far this
is what I'm thinking of buying:
CMI Heavy Duty On/Off Coil Paintball Remote Kit - Black
Tippmann US Army Alpha Black Tactical Paintball Gun - Black
Tippmann 98 Custom Cyclone Feed System
Gen X Global Tactical Vest Paintball Harness - Camo
PMI Pure Energy Aluminum 48/3000 Tank - High Pressure Output
Gen X Global 100 Round Paintball Pod - Camo(3 of these)
V-Force Vantage Pro Paintball Goggles - Black
The total comes out to about $350. I'm wondering if there's anything else I should buy or if I'm missing anything.Also
if you have any suggestions on any of the items above and If there's better options I'd like to know.Thanks
in advance for the replies!
CMI remote coil- Good choice, this will work good and hold up while your playing. It will last you a while.
Tippmann Alpha Tactical- Tippmann makes some of the most reliable and durable markers on the marker, they has a fool prouf design and are easy to maintain. The army series markers are just tippmann 98 customs with a different body and visual mods. Really the only thing you are paying for is the visual mods, the army series are no better then a tippmann 98 custom because they are the same thing, use the same internals and same mods. They are good markers only down side is the dam plastics on it is cheap and break easy.
98 cyclone feed- Great idea for a none battery powered loader but it sucks. The cyclone feed uses up a lot of air or co2 and does not feed all that fast. It is not reliable and tends to chop paint. You have to buy the techt upgrade kit for it to make the cyclone feed even worth while and that is another $60. Don't waist your money on a cyclone feed it is better to just buy a good quality electronic loader like an invert too or halo b.
Cen X Vest- Good light vest. Great quality and work good, also they dont cost a lot and they are durable. Nice and light and good for keeping you cool even though you have a vest on, also allows you to carry extra paint and your co2 or hpa tank on your vest instead of your marker.
PMI HPA tank- Good hpa tank and work good. The regulators on them are ok they could be better but for the price it doesn't matter. I would however recommend the Ninja paintball tank over the pmi just because ninja has a better regulator on the tank that is fully rebuildable and easy to rebuild. Also they test every one of their tanks and make sure they are set at 800psi output, no lower or higher, perfect for tippmann markers.
Gen X Pods- hey are fine it doesn't really matter much what you use. I find that the shocktech pods do good and don't break paint even if you fall on them or while you are running around.
Vforce Vantage Pro- Don't buy this mask, it is crap! this is one of the worst masks you can buy. If you are looking for a cheap good quality mask go with the Vforce Provantage, they are a lot better built and have a great anti fog lens. Good air flow in them and soft foad that is very comfertable to wear. Great mask and only $50
Overall you have a good setup there. You don't need all of it but $350 is a good price for all of that. You should look at not getting the cyclone feed system and not get the vantage pro mask. Instead buy a good quality electronic loader like the invert too and a good mask like the vforce provantage.
Watch these vids they will help five you good info.
