You said it, I merely listened. ;D Really, I don't bash on paintballers because I was one, and it's still kinda cool (but nowhere near as cool as Airsoft...so I dunno).

Can't we all just get along? hehe I'm with Newman on this too. I don't really mind paintballers, the way I figure, there are too many people to dislike its just not worth it . I mean...I snowboard and skateboard too, and yes sometimes skiers and rollerbladers do annoy me, but I'm sure I bug them too every once in a while. But they're just people out enjoying the things they do just like us. now...lets hold hands! hehe Newman, you really did well at the last skirmish. I bet I've told you that a million times now but its true. It was cool seeing how you started the game using slightly more paintball tactics, then slowly adjusting your playing style to fit airsoft. Just watch ye sides!

I agree, Hadoken, there's no need squabbling at all But then again...what's the point of a forum! ;D For everything there are some people who are jerks-like snotty rich kid paintballers, those anti-government skateboarders, *punks*, and, just because it's in the news, how some Muslims are fanatical psychos. But there are always the good guys in the activities, and that's the good part. About the tactics I used: I definitely agree, Martin, I was totally psycho at the beginning, running everywhere, yelling at my teammates to move up (Neal-BALLISTA!!! MOVE UP!!! Ballista-Der....my guns are broke! ;D). Then I switched everything around once I realized that these guns are really quiet (except for the PDW) and I have to be Mr.Silent now. I'm just more cautious, I guess that's what's changed.

My problem with paintball has way too many parts 1. Unrealism- who wants a bigass hopper on top of the gun? 2. Markers- wtf? call them guns 3. Tactics (commercial places)- there are none. everything is done with fake barricades 4. Those bigass masks! 5. (rental) Guns are accurate to about 3.5 feet 6. splotches of paint on EVERYTHING 7. expensive as hell 8. such less cool looking guns 9. no gbbs

I just noticed something cool- my glock 18 can fire the 6mm paintballs without breaking them. How awesome would it be to whip out the full auto in a match? not big splotches but ppl will keep their heds down.

Please lets not turn this into a airsoft vs pball thread, we all have our opinions, no need to start flames.

not a big deal if one breaks, its not tough to clean the inside of the barrel. not like theres a gearbox to break.

They should just make the paint in those paintball's silicon based, that way if one breaks you just lubed your barrel! ;D

Sweet AT just replied to my email about my A4. They have it, the battery doesn’t fit in stock form but they are going to modify it for FREE for me so it does! Wootzer! I should have it mid next week. Buy from www.airsofttoys.com

Newman - Everything will go well, I have been ordering from them sense MIA started and each time was perfect service.
Unnamed - Just use trial and error. Set it one way all the way and if the bbs fly up that would be adding hop up. If you put it all the way the other way and they have no range then that means it all the way off. Half way between is "perfect" hop up for whatever weight bb was originally intended to be used by KSC in that gun, most likely .2g. Shake your head really hard, did you hear that? The rattling in-between your ears? Yea it’s your brain, use it.
Heh, that was harsh, but fun and refreshing.
