Title: Paintball
Post by: Titan on March 11, 2010, 04:05:24 PM
Hey I think I made this thread on the hangout but I don't really remember.

For those that play what is your current setup?
(I'm currently running a smart parts ion with a 7th element board, a cp shorty regulator, and a orange nano bolt, with a 4500/72 compressed air tank, though I also have a spyder xtra)
Feel free to openly discuss.

I used to play when I was younger with my friends regularly when i didn't have the money to play it.

My setup then was a Tippmann 98 Custom with a Flatline Barrel, collapsible stock, drop-forward, cyclone feed system, E-Trigger, and a custom made bi-pod (came with it) to fit the front of the barrel for when I'd play outdoors.  I'd throw on a ghille suit and bury the gun under leaves using the bi-pod for stability.  People hated me.

If you've tried airsoft and liked it you'll probably love paintballing. The biggest problem is, is how expensive it is to play. The closet field to me is
10$ to get in and 70$ for a case of paintballs, which is about what they run at most fields.

I've only paintballed once, and it was incredibly fun. However I was scared shitless half the time, as it was me and a bunch of friends my age vs a bunch of super serious adults, so there was a lot of pain involved. I think I would really enjoy it if I played often, but I don't have the cash.

Heh, I agree, I once shot my friend in the mouth  :P But my parents won't let me buy a gun so I have to borrow one when we play  :(

Paint ball is pretty cool, I have been twice for people birthdays or something. I don't know anything about the guns other than they were semi-automatic and had CO2 gas canisters to power them :P
