so..does anyone here plays paintball??
i plan on playing it with 'a couple of mates,
i first wanted to do airsoft. but it is illegal in the netherlands(my luck)
and as i live in the north(drenthe)i can't hop to belgium for a game of airsoft.
so....that brings me too paintball, i plan on making a gun as real-looking as i can, and think im gonna buy a tippmann a-5

anyone else plays paintball/airsoft?

I played it just once on a schooltrip, was fun though.
Especially if you're the only girl who came along on the trip and was able to headshot some guys.

lol pure evil.

yea i do it sometimes, but i really f**king hate being shot, especially
when there are loads of people after you.

lol just hop to germany for airsoft ant btw which city do you live in?

i never did but it looks fun... i dont play with paint... i play with rocks in diferent houses of my friends =D its very fun, because you are really woried of being hitted, so its everything more real... i dont care if they hit me with just... paint =P

Nothings better than shooting a your fellow man im going painting with my friends some more next weekend....the only thing i don't like is getting shot in the mask and havingthe paint get all in yoru mouth...its happened to me like 10x @_@....

does anyone get like really dressed up for it...i wear like my wrost pair of jeans and a think long sleeve shirt, the balls don't hurt me that much when they hit....but i see some ppl in like camo and stuff anyone do that?

I usually wear some joggin pants or something like that. I prefer something light and colors that blend in with the environment. Not camo though just single colored clothes.

Dont ever play in an indoor arena, you will regret it for the rest of your life.

If I may ask, what's so bad about it?

I only played paintball once, it was outside.

Outside just owns Inside.

When you played outside..think of how good that was now....picture something that had no trees, but only balloons (paint ball balloons), and something uber smaller, AND 100x worse.

Ask any real hard core paint baller and they would probably say Outdoor FTW

And if its outdoor and it has paintball balloons. its not as good as paintball in outdoor in the forest or something.

Although some televised painball tounies are held outdoor with the balloons.

Played it once with my bf...it was fun...and I also realized I'm good with guns.

dude i love paintballing... for you go to a real place not a place where its just an open field, also dont waste your money on dumb camo stuff(no offence to any of you who do) but in my opinon its just a waste of money unless you really want to play "jungle" type games, myself i go for the offical ones, more orginazed and everything.

Well after the paintball match it started raining like shit, and we were all sleeping in tents....which all flooded at night.
We were all swimming in our tents. The teachers slept in a luxe bungalow with shower.
We moved from our new 'swimming pool' to the bathhouse where we slept in showerscells, on the floor, and on tables.

I've always wanted to try paintballing, my friend and uncles do it. Does it cost a lot?

if you don't have your own gun and stuff it can run up to like 40 USD...at leasts that the average cost around here

Did you forget a zero?

nah if you go to the place you can rent a gun and balls if you plan on shooting more you'll have to buy more balls and the stuff they use to keep the gun pressurized but for like a good amount of balls and a gun rental it should only be like 40 USD

depends..if he goes to one of the organisation thingies, he can paintball one day for around $40
if he wants to buy his own gear, hes needs atleast 100-200, and you're gear wont be super

@ghostkilla43, i do have camoflage, a ghilliesuit like i showed earlier.
and tbh i love it, one of my mates stepped on my before he knew i lay there
i was looking at this gun ,any ocmments?

Oh, ok thanks dude.

But if I wanted to buy my own stuff like gun, ammo, mask, whatever they use to pressurize, it'd be a couple hundred?

@Skulldiver any chance you live in Assen?

That looks like the XM8 rifle.

@ rotorboy , nope , you're getting pretty close tho.
ill tip you, its close to emmen

@ necromage,
yep its a scenario gun , meaning you can replay popular battles(d-day/black hawk) with it.
the lookjs is also a reason why i plan on buying it, so ghostkilla, got any comments on it?
