what feild do you guys play at
we just play in the woods, either behind my house, or at a friends house, there aren't any places you pay to play around here, so we just set up like a speed course out of plywood or something or just play last man standing in the woods. where do u play?

thanks for the tips and i guess my bro is gana need to get some more $$$ if he plans to have a tourniment level gun what do you think about the verticle feed auto cockers my freind used his a couple times and its in great shape he wants $80 for it what do you think
I had an Autococker for a while. It was a basic model without any mods. I was having problems with it chopping ***** and the rate of fire was slow. I called and talked to the local Autococker Guru and he started ratteling off all of the mods that I could do to make it better. I had already paid $350+ for it and he was suggesting things like trigger jobs and new front block and some other stuff. I would have ended up with over $1000 and I wasn't doing that! Plus they are more complicated than a normal gun. Great if you can get them working correctly and don't mind the investment but I got rid of mine for a Tippmann. These are also my opinions and others may have had better luck with them. Good luck!

i have played paintball for a while.i also run a store. need any info let me know.
my brother wants to buy a gun to be used at in some entry level tournaments what gun/tank should he get and has a $350 limit

well you can buy a ion for around$ 285. an hpa tank ranges from $85-300(it is not good to use co2 on most high end markers) you also need a good motorized hopper to feed a marker at rates of fire (17 bps+) $85-150. The ion is a good marker for entry level tournament play, it is the most reasonable marker i have seen in a while,but you also need the parts i mentioned for it to work well.the hpa tanks all do the same thing it just depends on what size and what psi capacity you want. the hopper is a must if you expect to get a fast gun. hope that helped you out, let me know if you need anything we ship anywhere.

autocockers use to be real nice guns,they still are in some cases. very accurate from the closed bolt setup. i have owned many guns but the one i don't sell is my highly moded cocker. that is a good price but i wouldn't recomend that for the tournaments these days,it does not have the rate of fire that you need . excellent woods ball gun. they are a little tricky some times and most people can't make full trigger pulls every time so the gun chops paint. you can spend big bucks on mods but it you short stroke,it will chop.

There are a number of feilds around here that are about 90 to 15 min away. We moslty play at Triage since it is the closest and thier paint is cheaper than most other feilds. We had a great speed course in some local woods but someone called the cops ( one of my freinds was shooting a piece of sheet metal sounded like an automatic rifle) and we found out it was on township property it was a shame to loose that spot we spent hours building bunkers and trenches we even built a place to set up our stuff with a roof and walls it was also a good place to hang out and have nice bon fires we still sometimes play there but its mostly not worth the risk

i used to paintball every weekend with my buddies and its fun as hell but i havnt gone in like 2 months. i keep telling myself that im gunna go every weekend but i always find sumthing fun to do and i forget bout it. aspecially since school started because during the weekends u go out a lot kuz u see a lot of people at school so u meet up with them.anyways, i have a game face vexor which is a cheap *** gun but its pretty good if u get the right barrel for it. it was cheap..... 100 dollars for the full kit and then the barrel for around 20. the gear was wat was expensive...... pods, harness(20$), paintballs(local feild paint- 75$), mask (dye invisions), knee pads(dye), elbow pads(dye). i pwed newbs in speedball, thats all i play. i hope i still have the touch and didnt forget how to play good. i started saving up money for a nice timmy but i decided i dont need a better gun kuz my gun is still really good for the recreational level that i play at. its not like i need a timmy or angel just to play at a local feild with no1 thats actually really good. its a good thing i didnt buy a new gun too kuz i wouldnt be using it that much, mabe once a month now.
