Ego 11 or Etek 4 ?

[MylesBull]

Looking to upgrade, but stuck between a new Etek 4 or a used Ego 11 ? Need advice!

Ego definitely! It's the next step up from an Etek 4, so no contest really.

Yep as above Ego 11 then fit a DART kit.

Thanks for the advice, so what is the difference between the two ? What makes the ego that much better ? sorry if its a dumb question

Ego 11 lighter, Lcd screen, can change all the settings you can even adjust the noid, smoother was more than double the price of a etek when new ego 11 all day long then fit a dart just gets better

Ego 11 is a higher end marker,that have come down in price since LV 1 has been introduced ,second hand £450 or less should get you a nice one with all the bits.
Don't worry about shot count,just condition and service history if possible.
Has adjustable solenoid ,( not that you will play with it much)
Son has an 11.

Etek 4 is still a nice marker,two versions the AM which stands for all metal and a composite one I've not owned one but have fired one,people who have composite say there's no difference.
So it depends if you want brand new Etek or used 11

I need to of posted 10 times before i put a wanted ad up.

I'm hoping to grab a used Ego 11 for around £400.

Would anyone recommend any other markers for around £400 ?


Thanks for all the advice so far!

You should be able to get one for £400. In that range you could also look at DM11 and DM10. You may also get a geo 2/2.1 or a redlined Axe. All of which are individual preference but I have seen all of these markers in use at CPPS and I have yet to leave and see one sticking out of a bin !
