I haven't played paintball since high school but I occasionally do some airsoft games and target practice :)

I'll probably buy a red dot sight one of these days to complete the set.
It's a nice way to vent. My preference goes to SWAT/CQB scenarios, counter-strike-style :)

I'd love to see the reaction if those were taken to a public place. Ohh think of the fun!
I've never done paint ball, have wanted to though.

+1 on Airsoft being good stress relief. Me and my buds usually play once a month with an all night war in the field and its a blast. There's enough creekbeds/woods/plains/junk scattered around the property to make for pretty diverse play. And on cloudy night s it gets pretty intense.
If raph plays irl counterstrike, me and my pals play irl Stalker. ( Sans the anomolies and mutants, we haven't figured out how to spawn those yet. )

Mutants is easy, get someone to play a bloodsucker and you're good to go.

Its very difficult to get anything like those airsoft guns into canada, Some idiot complained the wrong way and before anybody could react the legislation got passed. I don't think my marker is legal to buy up here anymore, which is fine by me because now I have one. What I'd really like (and this is the next paintball purchase) is one of these:

Hell yes. I love a bit of paintball. Body armour is for pussies and if I don't go through an entire hopper per round, at least, I'm on for fail. I don't play often enough to buy a gun though - more's the pity. Paintball is best played when hungover big-style. :thumb:
Last time I played there was a "Terminator" who randomly came on field and if you nailed him enough you got to play with his gun. It was superior to the standards and the "upgrades" by far, effectively being the sniper rifle of paintball guns (of course I got him - I'm absolutely rabidly mental on the paintball field. Appropriate pic Iggles) . I'd get one but expense would not be worth it for the number of times I go. Too many people I know are wimps and fear the pain.

Three years ago, here, two kids were loading their gear in their car out on their driveway, so naturally a good Samaritan called the equivalent of Canada's SWAT.
