So long as you stay in a different state than I'm in.

There are a lot of differences between paintball n' war. I know your new, so, don't refer to paintballs as "ammo". Always wear a mask when playing, never take it off while a game is taking place. Keep your velocity under 300fps. Use common sense, if your gonna do something with your pballgun, if you think you could possible hurt someone or something or get in trouble, don't do it.
Have fun, back to your question. go with a spyder players kit of some kind. They are very simple to use, n' simple to maintain an' fix. As you get more into tha sport, you upgrade to better equip.
Have fun.

lol "War" well anyways im guessing your going to play woodsball because you said earlier that you like running around in the woods. So i would go wit sumtin durable. Id get a tippman. Probably a 98 c then later on you can upgrade the gun alot. and like sum1 said b4 get a player pack wit the hopper mask co2 ect.

those r good for the price but they will still fog in harsh temperatures. Like if your playing in the winter when theres snow on the ground they will fog or if its like mad hot out they will fog. But for normal temperatures there fine.

www.anythingxtreme.com is a site that has all kinds of paintball crap



Also, a good gun to get for $160 is a Tippmann Custom Pro.

www.xpaintball.com or
www.google.com
