If you guys have not played paintball as yet, go play. It has to be on of the most fun actiivities I ever did. I have gone twice already and hooked. I played in one outdoor field in ny and we played last night in an indoor field.



Since the local tracks will be closing for the winter, this is another great hobby to get into.



Keep in mind that it is kinda expensive. A good paintball setup will run anywhere from $400 - $2000 but you can rent guns, masks etc...

I bought a Tippmann A5 (www.tippman.com) with a response trigger and I am getting the flatline barrell.



Does anyone here play?

I had a blowgun that shot paintballs and 4" darts. It's fun to mix it up a bit!

Great choice on the gun, Tippmann's last forever. The flatline barrel is good if you play in the back, it does give you more range than any other gun, but if you want the best accuracy, get an Armson Stealth Rifled barrel.

Wow, you guys look serious!!!



The outdoor field we played at was "cousins" and the indoor was called "Xfactor"



It would be nice to rent a field with forum members. We rented cousins for a group of 20 guys. It was 10 guys from T and R Racing against 10 guys I work with.



We're setting something up with SpeedNYC, he is gonna get 10 guys together as well.
