When my basement flooded in last month's big storm, my marker was in it's case, sitting minding it's own business in the furnace room. It got FILLED with water... the case is filled with soft foam to protect the marker, and it just sucked up water like you wouldn't believe. Now a lot of the parts I was able to save: Drop forward, ASA, 20 oz CO2 tank, gauge, 2 spyder threaded barrels... but the marker itself (a tricked out Spyder Xtra), the grip (Centerflag Hyperframe - One of the most expensive on the market), and the hopper (Mach 404... nothing amazing but never jammed on me) are all toast... the marker, although anodized, has rusted wherever there were screws... the grip is fried (or so it seems), and the hopper won't turn on anymore.
I claimed it with my insurance and they gave me the value of everything in the case that was damaged (Marker - $150, Frame - $350, hopper - $50, Misc items that were exposed to sewage water and now have to be disposed like squeegees, gloves, jersey, etc - $100). So now I have to replace it with another marker/accessories of equal value. I have an extra jersey/gloves/mask, so I wanna put it against a good marker. Anyone have any reccomendations? It's gotta have an electronic frame, shoot a *minimum* of 13 bps, and be able to take a beating for winter/woodball. It must also be brand new/used from a shop that will give me a receipt for it. Ideally, I'd like to get a marker, hopper, and a nitro tank. Let me know what you think :)
