Who likes to paintball?

[johndoe52]

Like the title says, who likes paintball? Can't wait to play today. It's been so long I couldn't even sleep. Well that and the 4 or 5 cups of coffee I had after work last night to calm my nerves.

Its great.. Have fun. Sadly, I can't afford to go out today for a 5th weekend in a row. (have my own stuff and it still costs a fortune)

Just remember.. play full out and just "go for it". I hate having regrets at the end of the day, especially when its a $30-$40 regret.

wear a cup. and knee pads are really good too.

Paintball's great fun.

First time I played though, I got beaned in the mouth. Bleccchhh.

I bought a Tippman 68 I think it was in 2000 but I only played like 4 times that year and not since

Last game of the year was a daylong event and I can't remember but I think there were around 40 people on each side on a giant - I want to call it map but this isn't a video game

I like paintball, but only with rentals aka Tippman 98s. I know once I get a real gun I'll just hide in the back and snipe at people like everyone else does. There's no fun in that!

Haven't played in forever, miss it but, my heart isn't in it anymore. Fun sport! Spent a lot of money on it years ago, now I have 3 guns, F2, AutoMag, and Autococker, now collecting dust.

cheap guns are so much better than they used to be. the $100 ones at wal mart or fry's are better than a $600 gun from 1996...

I played once and it was great fun. Problem is in finding people who actually have the time to play

You have a .68 Carbine too? Great gun.. won gun of the year in 99 I believe. I have one with the all weather valve that fixed some consistancy problems, but its a VERY powerful gun if set up properly...


Oh and for the record.. Airsoft is godly, but not everyone has a location.
I'm going to a big show/game/tourney to check out airsoft in August (Ottawa)

Believe you are right about it winning it in 1999, that is one bad a$$ gun! Not only was it good for a recreational player, great field gun. Not very high maintenance on it and keeps on ticking!

I play from time to time. I'll be moving within 15 minutes of a good indoor field in a couple weeks, so I'll probably play a lot more. I've had a 68 Carbine, Autococker, Blazer, Phantom, and a pgp. I still own the Carbine and the pgp.

Oh I almost forgot

This is my boomstick

BTW - If anyone from AT is going to the Michigan Monster Game in July, shoot me a pm. I'll probably be there with 5-10 other guys.

Paintball is fun, but kinda hurts. I always end up with lots of bruises afterwards, but its worth it.

[Phuz]

Paintball doesn't suck.
Coming from a guy who probably doesn't play either..




<< Not very high maintenance on it and keeps on ticking! >>


Damn right.. Mines four years old and I've only replaced the o-rings on my tank valve.. no internal repairs..

Don't think I'll wear a cup, stupid as it sounds but I just don't expose that much of my body. All 5 times i got hit on saturday it was from the solders up. But knee pads might come in handy when I crouch though.
