How good is the BT-4 paintball marker?

What Paintball marker do you recommend?

• I'm going to buy a paintball marker soon. I'm going to spend around $200-$300 on the paintball marker. Now please re-read that. I'M GOING TO SPEND $200-$300 ON THE PPAAIINNTTBBAALL MMAARRKKEERR. I'm not saying I have 2-3 hundred to spend total, and I have to read your bullshit about "Well your going to need to buy a hopper, and a tank, and paintballs, so you really only have $100 to spend." NO, i'm spending $200 to $300 on Just the marker By ITSELF. Got that? Good, now answer my damned question. :)

• Answer:

  Glad you specified the budget is gun only. Makes it easier for us! The only marker that has a quick firing mode select is the Tippmann A-5 w/ H.E. Grip. Has an external dial that you can turn from semi to burst to full at any time. But the A-5 has a Cyclone Feed installed, doesn't use an electronic hopper (can probably swap it out for a standard feedneck and hopper, but not worth the cost and trouble). I think a better option is to get some other electro, one with a lighter trigger pull. That way, you can always shoot just as fast as full-auto, without actually needing full-auto. Check out the Azodin Blitz or Zenith, Gog Extcy, Dangerous Power G4, or Proto Rail (not the Reflex, it's above your budget). I'd also suggest the 2012 Spyder Fenix, but it's not out yet.
