Not 18 yet, so all I got are these
bb gun can do 447FPS with 6mm metal bb's, paintball gun can shoot 330FPS or so (needs to be lowered to 260 so it doesn't go through ya  ) and the other guy is so hot, it can shoot flames. Fumed like fire, baby

Although it is tempting I refuse to post firearms pics on the web  Here is my paintball gun though. Her name is Black Death. The sight is not for show. This gun puts all balls on a pie pan at 25 yards. The secret is the barrel. An armson stealth rifled barrel. You can say what you want about paintballs, the balistic equivilant of a jelly dounut, and rifling not working on them but I say this. All balls on a pie pan at 25 yards. Boom Headshot  |

| ooohh nice. Paintballing doesnt really do it for me, but it is fun with a group of friends. I dont know what it costs over there in USA, but you can easily spend £100+ on a days worth of paintballing. Ripoff! |

Wow, I guess its great to live in middle america for paintball. It costs about $10-$15 for a field fee (cost to play at a refereed field) or $0 to bushwack it (play on someones land who you know or maybe not.) Paint is also cheep. I spend less then $20 a day and I shoot only super premium balls (marbalizer.) When I started playing paintball though paint was a fortune at about 20cents a shot. Now its 2 cents a shot  |

| yeah, I think its cheaper if you can take your own paint and use your own gun etc.. but going along to stag parties or group bookings, they dont like you using anything else other than their own equipment. $$$$$ |

DONT POST OUR SECRET WEAPON ONLINE MAN!
Ah man... The one you have is a tippman 98 custom, aint it? My spyder Xtra get's better ratings, maybe you'd like to buy mine because I've just about had enough of this shit. JAC is right, if you really want to have fun in paintball you need to spend about $100 or so, depending on what gun you have.
Everytime I had gone I ended up spending $60 for 2000 marbalizers and a $25 entrance fee. Some days it's BYO (bring your own paint), but the fees are jacked up to $35, then "free" day, where you get free air and free admission, but you need to buy paintballs... which are, ofcourse jacked up that day too. I've thought about it, and it's a pretty rediculous sport (no offense ).. spend a hundred bucks to get/give giant red bruises the size of marbles.
To top it off, some idiot friend of mine spent $400 on a paintball gun... wtf? time to get a life

| The gun (see above) is actualy a tippman 68 carbine with a pro-carbine valve. It is superior to the tippman 98 custom and is a decendent of the pro-lite and originaly the pro-am. Guns of this line were often used as rentals because they are bomb proof and will fire in cold weather as well as hot. I already have a quality spyder clone and don't like it much. Although it is more conservitave on gass, has a much better trigger, and has a higher firing rate it is not bomb proof and dosen't work worth a crap in the snow. In my terribly biased opinion nothing shy of a nitrogen rig is a match for these old tippmans. They may be crude but they fire every time you pull the trigger. As for the new ownership of the tippman company I think they can go F*** themselves though. The quality of product and service is not what it was in the good old days. |
