    Bro, mid range used to be $500-$700. Is $1100.00 mid range especially in todays economy?

    • @BAGofTALENT
      @BAGofTALENT 7 місяців тому +5

      Mid range is still in that $500-700 range , for some reason tiers of guns is only based on price nowadays instead of performance. That 180 is literally the exact same as the CS 3 and about $700 less , you get tooless grips on CS 3 and supposedly a " bigger chamber" for the exact same bolt that is in 180 . As far as performance goes I'd say "high end " starts at the shocker and 170 and mid range is Etha 3 and Axe 2.0 . You get all the same modes and features on guns like shocker and 180 for significantly less money , yes the CS 3, TM 40, M3+ are really nice but as far as performance and ability to shred paint guns like DSR+ , shocker amp or era and 170/180 give you the same .

    Just got back into paintball. And I left off halo markers were the top of the line. Tippman was the best versatile system and co2 was common lol. Man I like what I missed.
    Luckily I got to start back with a planet eclipse 180r “predator camo” marker. Man what an amazing system.

      The 180 is arguably the best gun on the market if you include price point , you get everything the CS 3 has except tooless grips ( who cares about those takes less than 1 min to take out 2 screws ) for $700 less . The 180 is as good if not better than every " high end " gun on the market.
