@ xander- wow, that is like the complete opposite on my side of the pond. the lame wannabe bad ass kids get airsoft guns and act like punks with them while your ex-military types pick up paintball and dominated the woodsball scene. there are alot of the casual players like you mentioned, but they are not a big part of the game over here.

@ JAR re:tippman mods- yeah, they are expensive as hell, which is why i stayed away and went for the better, cheaper guns by smart parts and the BT TM7.

@ JAR and Dimitri - if you ever do paintball, dont be worried about getting your sweet gear all full of paint. it washes out better than dirt and grass (most of them, some paintball stain really bad). i wear my everyday clothes while i paintball, and i have only ever had one shirt trashed from some cheap ass paint that was misadvertised and left big oily stains on it. it is now my 'paintball shirt' :P .

in the end, i suppose the only real difference between them is the caliber of ammunition...

paintball is .68 and airsoft is 6mm, right?

Wow, what a cool MP. The last time we were caught by redcaps I ended up with a black eye and a mate had his wrist broken. Can we get some of your MP's, please? :)

I didn't deal with the guy myself, but I get the feeling he was one of a very rare breed... Heard a number of things involving civilians being shot for getting within so many -feet- of the gate..

Either that or he was pissed :P
I suspect stories of civilians getting shot may be a bit of an exaggeration lol

You can also get 8mm air soft pieces - although they seem limited to 'shotguns' & sniper rifles....

the forum? i stop by there once in a while. i dont exactly like tippmann products all that much (other than their new pistol) and that is mostly what you get pushed at you, like you get smart parts thrown at you on the smart corps forums. i haven't found any paintball forums that i really 'like'.

if thats not what you meant... then im lost... :D

Oh, I forgot: Old PC games.
Been playing D2 with various mods rampantly... which is perhaps why I haven't been on in a few days..
