I've decided when I get the money I'm going to get either a tippmann 98 or the bt4 combat. But that is we're the decision has stopped so any help will be appreciated

I assume that you want to do walk ons? I prefer the Tippmann but that doesn't mean you'll get on with it so if you can I'll recommend trying them first.

Yeah I'm goin to try and get to a walk on won't be till the new year hopefully. I've used the tippmann 98 and bravo one already. I liked the bravo since it seemed a bit more accurate but it's a bit heavy.

I personally wouldn't recommend either of them - both simple old fashioned blowback markers that are no better than what most sites use for punters.
For the money either of those cost new, you could buy something fr nicer secondhand

Bt4 will last a lifetime solid little gun my first was an omega it was pretty good. Very good starting point but don't spend much on upgrades etc because it'll end up good but not as good as something else at the same price. Looking at buying another myself just for fun. Alot of players start out with a simple gun because its simple you have to start somewhere. If its to be used on rental days keep it well maintained stick an affordable barrel on it and a force fed hopper, rip clip was ideal for me and you'll have a great advantage over them for little money and that'll hold up enough at walkons or big games to get you started

Ok gotta say summit this is a huge pet hate you see it everywhere. Someone wants advice on two guns they have made mind up on. They don't ask for the usual save more get a tourney gun speel. Some want that and its like a duck to water and some just wanna get what they like and find their feet.

Save about 1200 and get the best tourney gun around mate but people
Would still advise on something else :p
