7. Empire Prophecy Gun Z2
The Empire Prophecy Gun Z2 (around $159) only comes in two colors — black or white — but your enemy will be too busy retreating from its rapid load rate and 200-ball capacity to laugh at your lack of style. It utilizes infrared sensors to detect jams and clear them.
- Lightweight design
- Rarely ever breaks a round inside
- Not the sturdiest option

6. JT Revolution Electronic Classic
The JT Revolution Electronic Classic (appx. $44) has an anti-jam propeller that automatically reverses itself and resets if a clog is detected. Unfortunately, it can only feed 12 balls per second, so you may be outmatched by those with better equipment.
- 2-piece body for easy cleaning
- Requires dual 9-volt batteries
- Gears wear out too quickly

5. HK Army TFX Black
The HK Army TFX Black (about $179) is easy to care for with its tool-free maintenance, and it comes with a case that will help you keep it protected when not in use. It features an LED indicator light that lets you know when it’s on, and has a 216-round capacity.
- Extra-wide opening
- Gets scratched easily
- Tends to not load the last few balls

4. Empire Halo Too
The Empire Halo Too (appx. $90) works great thanks to its integrated Freeway Anti-Jam technology and force-fed design. It automatically primes a ball as soon as it’s powered up, so you’ll never be caught without some paint in the chamber ready to shoot.
- Tough polycarbonate shell
- Ultra-quiet belt drive
- A little on the bulky side

3. Virtue Spire
The hopper of the Virtue Spire (about $199) boasts a 200-ball capacity and a jam-proof design, meaning a round is always locked and loaded in the barrel when you need it. It’s available in a slew of color options to match every team’s particular style.
- Disassembles without tools
- Clear viewing window
- Lightweight low profile

2. Dye Rotor R2
The Dye Rotor R2 (appx. $180) has a convenient design that allows the user to choose between a 200- and 260-round capacity without needing to use any tools or remove any parts. It also features a wide mouth for fast reloads, which means less downtime and more shooting.
- Consistently high-speed feed rate
- Low ammo alert system
- Anti-jamming feed arm


1. Virtue Spire III 280
The Virtue Spire III 280 (about $200) features a spire drive that’s 35 percent smaller than the company’s previous models, integrated with CPU-optimized motor logic to provide you with the most exacting feed rate possible. Your ammo will feel consistent and reliable.
- G-force sensor with shock mount
- Reload indicators with alarms
- Interfaces with a smartphone app
