i noob but what is the right gun
Hi my dad bought me and my litl bro brass eagle pump action blades for us to practice with around the house but he wants to get real ones for say at actual paintbal courses and so ive looked at all the forums and the suggestions and ive come up with a choice of these 4 guns: Kingman Spyder Xtra Marker Kingman Spyder TL-X Marker Viewloader Pro Series Maxis R/G Marker or 32 Degrees Icon-Z Marker. I know all you guys are great and know alot. also if none of these are good if you could tell me about a different one under $100 *thats all my dad will buy me*  that will be great. |

you dont need paintball apparel just yet its expensive for a new player, camo works fine,
ramp is a setting on an electric pb gun that tricks the board (the thing that controls what the electric gun does) into thinking that you are shooting more than you are
woodsball is in the woods,
speedball is played in an open field with a few bunkers (most of the time they are inflatable).

are neck guards needed to play because it seems as if it would hurt getting hit there.

Woodsball- is paintball played in the woods hence "woodsball"
Speedball- is a more faster played paintball game usually used with big air bunkers usually called "Airball" or "Sup air"
Ramp- is when you get to a certain BPS speed the gun takes over and thinks that more shots are comming and they really arrent and its illegal (in some tourneys)
Board- Its the chip inside of your gun. Like electronic board.
...You dont want to wear alot of stuff so you dont get overheated, were a long sleeve shirt and some pants. Ill try to PM you or get you on AIM to tell you more.  |

Hey there -
I've got two barely-used VForce Shield Thermal Masks. They resist fog GREAT (I live in humid Louisiana...they don't fog.) They are both green, and one has a neck guard (I know you were looking for that.)
I'd be happy to sell them to you and your brother for say...$50 shipped.
Send me a private message or an e-mail at lucas.stlaurent@lanewo.ang.af.mil
