"Ultimate Paintball" Tippmann Pckge, legit?

Okay so first off Hey guys, I'm Kevin, and my friend had pushed into paintball specifically woodsball and we're all looking forward to purchasing our markers. So I figured to buy a Tippmann Custom pro at that site (I'm solid on purchasing a Custom Pro). But it seems a little sketchy to me so heres my question, has anyone purchased from Ultimate Paintball on amazon? And does this package seem legit?

Thanks guys.

Also heres a list of stuff that I may purchase.
Tippmann
Chest Protector
Teardrop
Paintballs
Gloves, neck protector, practice PBs, extra tank etc.

I got a barrel from ultimate paintball on amazon not long ago. Can't complain and the customer service is decent as far as answering questions about inserts and threads goes.

the hopper and mask that come in that package are a joke. Buy the tippman seperately, or better yet find a used one. The quality of the ones made in the last few years has dropped.

As for a mask pick up something nice, not that...thing. I guarentee it will fog up in seconds and wont' be comfortable at all. Expect to pay upwards of $60 for a nice mask; it may seem expensive, but you'll never regret it.

the gravity fed hopper can be had for $2 at any store with a sporting goods section that sells paintball things. What your'e looking for though, is something that'll agitate the paintballs so you dont' have to shake the marker every time it doesn't feed.(which happens nearly every shot) the viewloader revolution(or revy) are dirt cheap and are the best hopper for doing this. You'll see other faster, more expensive hoppers out there but for what you'll use it for, the revy is the best choice.

The teardrop is a good barrel, bu also look into the J&J ceramics brand. why you ask? Because they are coated with ceramic on the inside, meaning if you chop a paintball (and you will) it shoots out the mess in a few shots rather than you needing a squeegee. during a game this is a lifesaver if you get a break when you are in the middle of shooting at somebody. Obviously you'll want a squegee to clean it out the right way after the game is over.

You don't need a chest protector unless you have some sort of condition that requires it. Thousands of people play without them. Go play for a day without one then re-evaluate if you still want one.
