You play paintball?

Anyone here play paintball any? I'm gonna play tomorrow, just made me wonder if anyone here does. If you do post what gun you have/play with. I've got a Spyder Shutter with a 14' inch Night Stick barrel and a collapsable stock. The stock is the one for a Model 98 with an adapter so it will fit Spyders. I pretty much play woodball. I've played speedball some but it kinda pointless. I think woodball takes more skill. Anyway, post if you play. :)

Big fan of painball. Have played several times, but always outdoor. I do not play enough to justify owning my own equipment. I agree that speedball takes less skill, but the excitement/adrenaline level is much higher, since the danger is much more immediate. I don't like to play speedball, however, because you go through paintballs so fast, that you need to have Donald Trump as a financial backer in order to play effectively. I would like to play outdoors with a sniper rifle, since I am a big fan of the surprise/long range take out.

Yeah that's why I don't like speedball, costs to much to pay for that many paintballs.

But I have found a site, www.paintballgear.com, that has 2000 pbs for $35 which is the cheapest I could find. The Night Stick barrel I have has greatly affected the accuracy of my gun. It shoots straighter and more consistant now. I hope I kick ass tomorrow

I better get some sleep.

I have been an avid player for over 8 years now. I have even worked for and managed a paintball field. As far as I know there have only been deaths relating to tank mishandling. As a sport it is safer than golf even. Although PB does have more of a sting to it. But according to the insurance carriers PB is safer than quite a few other activities.

I own four Auto-cockers, two of these are on nitrogen. The down side of my job is I dont get to play that much anymore. I am thinking it is time that I ask for a week-end off and go out and throw some paint.

The first time I played was in the later part of '95 and with the rental package I got 200 paintballs. Well at the end of the night I went home with some of those. Now after playing and getting the hang of the game in a good day I can go thru 2500 rounds. It can be an expensive hobby, but it is addicting too. I would recommend it to anyone.

I started out with a used "cocker" and borrowed parts from a friend when I played. I have come a long way since then. We all have to start somewhere. :)

Very nice. I can't afford a really nice gun. I plan on getting a regulator, assault block, bottomline setup, and change the chrome parts on my gun to black ones sometime this summer.

I have a 98 Custom not to bad for a stock gun. Only added 20oz bottle w/stock
Would like to get maybe a 10 or 12in. barrel. Have any comments on a good one for this gun?

I play in the woods alot but the Flatline Barrel i dont to much care for on 98 Custom. Slows down the ball to much.

a good barrel for the 98 custom is any made by DYE. And it does make a difference on the barrels. I believe another good product is CP (custom Products) They are local here to Phoenix but I think that you can get them thru alot of sources out there.

As soon as I get the LPR's changed out on my guns I will post pics of em.
