Default Thinking of a VS2

I am thinking of buying a vs2. I have been looking at some online and I have a few questions for you guys...

What is the difference between the vs2 and the vs3. Is the rocking trigger the only difference?

What price range would you guys say is about right?

Any thing else you guys could tell me to help me make my descision would be appreciated. We mostly play fast woods ball and a little speed ball. I figured to have the MR for woods/backup/loaner and the VS for my primary marker.

the 2 and 3 are the same except the trigger, and the color. what air do you use to woodsball, do you have HPA, if not and you cant get them filled close, wait for the rs, its co2
but the vs2 will probably drop in price wen the rs series is realesed, might wanna wait and see if they drop the prices anymore.
edit
course your in jacksonville so id doubt HPA is a problem

but barrels like the FREAK and J&J Ceramic works, those are the only two that come to mind, id imagine that there are more i jsut dont no them, can you/have you ever walked a trigger, if your good at walking, get a 2, if you have big clumsy fingers, or are just slow, get the 3

Well, I have the etrigger on the MR1 and can shoot as fast as the automatic setting... sometimes... on a good day. The only real issue was the grav hopper but that has been taken care of by the frontman. I have no issues getting access to HPA. I just have issues with my wallet and the actual HPA tank. All the fields near me do have HPA and the local store that I get my 1$ co2 fills has 1$ HPA fills as well.

What about price? I have seen some for $130 to $200... I know that Spyder.com has them listed for $250.00 but they also have the MR1 for $140.00 and everyone knows you can get them at walmart for $99.00. So with that logic if you take $40.00 off would that be around what you guys have been paying for them?

On a side note I saw a VS2 gun package on ebay that had a 20 oz CO2 tank being sold with it. I emailed the guy and asked him about it but I have not had any responces... CO2 will F up this marker, right?

some claim that they use co2, kingman says co2 will screw it up and my guess is that it will void any warranty
the price for a new vs2 is $164. (plus a $10 rebate at actionvillage)

wait for the RS if that price isn't to extreme go with that, it'l run co2 and hpa

you can but it will blow your reg eventually and some ay the valve but i dont htink it will mess the valve, co2 is to high an output pressure for the reg

I saw where this was posted before and when I looked at this last week it said it was out of stock. I think I might get this...

[edit] Ok so I ordered it! What hpa setup will I need? Should I get the Low HPA fixed or can I get the High HPA fixed? Does it matter? I guess it is a low pressure marker so I should get the low (450 psi) tank...

i think action village stopped that, get a HPA not a LPA, a LPA will not fill your gun quik enough.
