    Buy a tippman if you want it to last forever, and don't want to worry about breaking. You can run it over, throw it in a lake, microwave it and it will still work.

    Stay away from off brands, most likely they are junk.

    The ion has alot of the professional features that 1,200 markers have for around 250-300.
    That's probably more than what your looking to spend so I would suggest saving and getting the ion. They are great markers.

    Although then you still need a mask, hopper, and if you get an ion your going to have to get a nitro, don't run it on c02 :P

    the proshop that I worked at had tippman rentals, ion rentals, impulse rentals and I think they had a few ----ers.
    I still can't believe how much of a beating we put those tippys through :]

    Go to Sports Authority. The salespeople there should help you out a lot. They should have a wide range. For $200 you should be able to get a Tippman 98 or maybe an A-5 base version without any extra things. But that will be very rare.
