Depends, do you want to play speedball or woodsball?
if you pick speedball, i have no clue what you should get, there are literally hundreds of e-guns you can buy.
if you want to pllay woodsball on the otherhand, i would recomend the Tippmann A5, its reliable, affordable, and damn hard to break.
You can customize it however you please, and the cyclone feed system is worth the 200 bucks alone, Ive never chopped a ball once.

thats were i got my info.

hope that helps

p.s.-shadowkid33 is right about the ion and the barrel, if you get and A5, BE ABSOLUTLY sure you get a good barrel to go with it, because the stock barrel on the a5 SUCKS, and unless you want a shotgun rather than a paintballgun, get a new barrel (and large gas tank, the a5 is a major gas hog).

ive used 1/2 inch frost king for my angel breech and it fits 17/32 quite nicely. just go to the hobby store or wherever you go to get brass, bring a Stefan, and size the brass to the dart.

If you were to connect the breech to the priming handle, much like the LS, would you be able to reach the barrel to prime the gun with a pump slide maybe???

i personally use the slingshot ammo.

i dont recommend the split shot weights because in higher powered guns like the Big Blast, and other pneumatic guns, the soft lead gets deformed and then the dart doesn't fly straight. ive never had this problem with the slingshot ammo.

personally id recommend Marine Epoxy by loctite, ive used it for the Angel breach for my longshot, and many other applications in my homemades. ive used it for metal-plastic, plastic-plastic, and wood-plastic

the only downside is that it takes a LONG time to cure fully.
