Tippmann Cronus Paintball Marker Gun - Complete Player Package with Mask, Hopper & Barrel Cover | Perfect for Woodsball, Speedball & Recreational Paintball Games

I purchased two of these for $124 each in June of 2015, for myself and my son. We've used them several times since then. My rating criteria is as follows. If the product works as is advertised and the quality is in line with the price then I give it five stars tentatively, then deduct stars for usability problems, functionality problems, flaws, quality, etc.This is the only paintball gun I've ever owned, so my review isn't a comparison--its just an evaluation of what I've experienced.First, then product works as advertised. The "gun" or "marker" works very well. I adjusted it until it was at the limit at which my local club allows and it shoots very well. In my experience, it is accurate. It seems to be durable. The weight is hefty but not excessive. The trigger pull is crisp. With the CO2 canister screwed on, it is easy to get into shooting position. Most importantly, as a first time paintballer, I never felt like my equipment was holding me back. My skills were, but that's another story. I also like the fact that the gun, being a well known brand, can be upgraded with new barrels, canisters, compressed air, etc. Its a great gun to begin with, but you can grow with it as well.I was a little leery to buy a "package" like this, because often times the things in the package are low quality additions that you wouldn't buy otherwise. However, each item in the package can stand on its own. The included equipment isn't as high quality as some stand alone items I've seen, but they work.After a couple seasons, the guns are still going strong. We try to clean them after each use, but sometimes we don't. I've had no complaints about this gun or my son's gun. If you are looking to get into the sport, this package literally does contain everything you need, at sufficient quality that you won't feel like you are wasting money or will need to immediately replace something.
