It seems like paintball went from having fun shooting your friends to trying to make it a legitimate sport and trying to make the best, fastest, most efficient, smoothest guns possible and now we are moving back to just having fun with friends.

Well I didn't have the money to buy the genuinely good guns of the era, which were easily $1000 and actually held their resale value. I was using BUSTED old Angels, Matrixes, Impulses, etc. The Impulse was actually pretty good, but was such a quirky little gun. The $300-700 range was is extremely good now and those guns can shoot circles around what was kicking around back then.

You started playing about the same time as me and I'd definitely have to agree. The guns I thought were good then get out shot by $300 markers of today. Everything is cheaper, more reliable, and easier to maintain.

I love all the different types of paintball out there now!

The impact paintballs back in 2008 it was sold at Wal-Mart for 35-40$ and that paint was so much better then any 40$ paint today

I actually quit playing paintball and airsoft from like 2008-2010 until now because i was so tired of having to bring 2 of everything to every game i played because it was a garuntee that your gun was going to break or something was going to go wrong and you were gonna have to fix it. I just didnt have the cash and knowledge to keep fixing my stuff all the time. Came back about 2 months ago and was ready to spend that 300+ dollars on a gun because thats what i expected to have to pay for something that wouldent break every other game. Turns out my 300+ dollar price range and prior knowledge of the game allowed me to get a used high end gun that ive used ever since i came back and i havent had a single issue with it. Now if we can just get paint prices down.....

One disadvantage of 1v1 is that it doesn't really teach you to use low bunkers or snake -- because they are seriously disadvantaged in a 1v1 you tend to avoid them like the plague.

Jerad Love Thats because in 2003 Smart Parts were given the patent on the PVI Shocker, and made the wording so broad that they sued every single company that made an electronic gun from when the PVI Shocker was introduced in 1997 and forwards. This patent abuse went on until in 2007 when WDP (Soon to change to Angel Paintball Sports) fought in court, bought the other half of the patent from the creator, and the judge awarded that the Angel V6 was also credited in the design of the first electro-pneumatic marker, so thanks to Angel in 2007, the rest of the industry was free to produce electro-pneumatic markers without paying massive royalties to Smart Parts

For pump, I always want consistant paint. The extremely brittle paint is bad for pumps in my opinion. It's too easy to chop that ball or short stroke it.

Strongly recommend Graffiti balls in the T15 👍

Also, id suggest staying away from any GI paint that is below 4 star. Our field uses custom 2 star, and it shoots exceedingly terrible. You can shoot a hopper at a target 30 feet away and wont even have two shots land on top of each other. This has been going on for over 2 years, and i just cant get them to switch paint. Dont even start on the shells, that 2 star has an extremely hard shell. 3 star is a bit better, picked up a case and it shoots much straighter, but still, old Brass Eagle paint thats been laying around for years shoots better than it too. Cant use the 3 star at my field, so i cant give any info on what its like to take a hit from it yet

KE1R4N W Ok, that makes more sense. I was originally going to say Resurrection, but decided to ask what you meant. So now, i can say, definitely a Resurrection. Full barrel kit with solid backs, no inserts, clamping feedneck, on/off (though that ASA apparently is getting a reputation for biting the dust quickly), and it uses the 11/16 valve like the Trilogy and Merlin, so it has a larger volume of air. Macroless might be tough, but doable. Would have to be custom though, i know ive seen someone use a Relay ASA/reg from an Axe to make a gas through frame. As for the modern board, sadly i dont see that happening. Jack Wood said you wont see a new Eclipse cocker or cocker parts, and the guys over at Empire, Inception Designs, and Shocktech, most likely have no desire to make a new electronic frame and solenoid

1) so you hold a lifelong blood feud with someone from one action? Hell, my friends and I have done a lot of shit that's far worse to each other, and theres no blood feud to be had. 2) by being active on any forum or on any gaming, or on any place where the masses can post their thoughts on the internet, youre going to see a lot more than a 12 year old should see, I mean seriously, have you ever been on online gaming? There are a hell of a lot of 12 year old kids screaming at you saying shit that I would've gotten my ass beat raw for saying, so I have lost my empathy for anyone's feelings if they're active online. 3) you sure drank the koolaid on that one, didn't you? correct, all penny auction sites are shady, but still a legal business. Forced to do the right thing? Dude, did you forget the part where all of the orders from that site were left OUT of court when he filed for bankruptcy? No one in their right mind would leave that out of their files unless they intended to follow through with it. Also, I don't think you understand that 99.99% of the "complaints" about that site were from people who didn't even participate in it, so they should've kept their damn mouths shut and left any complaints to the actual buyers that were involved. I'm sorry, but if I paid $40 for something worth $1500, and had to wait a year or two, but have it actually show up to my door, I wouldn't be going around calling for that person to be burned at the stake. Go ahead and keep attacking someone like they personally murdered your mother, but didn't actually do a god damned thing to you And to end it all. I never once said Mike was the best guy in the world, he's not, I'm not, you're not. He can be an asshole, and has definitely exhibited it before, but he still gets a LOT of unwarranted hate from the idiots that drank the koolaid.

And you shouldn't hold a blood feud against someone you've never met based off of complaints from people who had nothing to do with the situation (markerbids). And I said that I have no empathy for a kid that runs into ugly stuff on the internet, because he is on the internet where if the masses are allowed to post freely, they are going to post some pretty terrible stuff. Furthermore, I said that yes, that was a terrible thing of Mike to do, but to look outside of the situation, he posted on a forum that called for his blood, so, in those shoes, if I were to post something on a forum that was so vehemently against me, I wouldn't be posting nice things either. Now, I'm going to end this here, because I am not going to hold a flame war on this site, because I can guarantee you that the uploader does not want this in his comments.

high end paint is such weird subject basically its brittle which is BS.. so called Mid range paint is actually better for most markers even the high end paint changes caliber batch to batch. So whats the point if your not a "PRO" ? Another thing is it sells slower so its gets even worst because it sometimes sits in storage wayyyy to long

go for it. The KP3 isn't too expensive and you could probably find on for around $150 used

I disagree on a few points. Paint across the board has become worse and more expensive. In the early 2000s we had more paint companies and an expensive case of paint was $60 which would get you real ultra evil, gap banana ball, or zap chronic. Everything else was $40ish and you could still get paint that a million times better than todays paint like marbalizers. And all the paint was 685 or bigger. Also the pump scene never went away it was always the popular counter culture to the electro arms race of the early 2000s especially in california
