Paintball (Splatball, Woodball, Speedball, Whatever)

Anyone here play?

Anyone here interested in playing?

I used to play a lot, but I fucked up my knee a couple of years ago, so I've been rehabbing it since. I think it's solid enough now that I am going to start playing again this Spring.

I use a Tippmann A-5 with a Flatline Barrel. (not my pic)

I've been getting excited to play again, so I may splurge and get a new A-5 or X7 setup with nitrous. I'm pretty sick of CO2.

i played it once. a lot of fun, but it went for too long and cost way too much. plus someone shot me in the back of the head from point blank.

Don't tell me that didn't factor into my getting back to it.

I shot a guy in the back of the head once. It was from a distance, and he had a significant fro, so I hope it didn't hurt much. I don't know why he had his head turned around. He had been peeking over his cover, so that's why I was aiming for him. I timed the shot, and when his head went up again, BAM, it was the back of the head.

It can cost a lot. It's best to split a case of balls with friends and don't be trigger happy. I tell myself self every shot is 5 cents. Doesn't sound like much, but when you empty your 300 round hopper and haven't killed anyone, it makes you stop and think.

Buying a used gun makes it a lot cheaper, too.
