Thanks for all the positive advice.

I'll be doing paintball for a while, it seems like a great sport that I can continue for years and years.

And yes, I would need some gun advice.

Check the New Player Forum and read the stickys. Very helpful information there.

For a first gun I recomend a Tippmann 98 Custom or a Spyder Imagine. The Tippmann is very reliable and easy to use. The Imagine is electronic so it shoots faster but isn't as reliable as the 98 would be and it's a little more difficult to use.

Both are great beginner guns and I recomend those to any new player.

welcome to the forums and have fun. When I joined I didnt know half the stuff I know now. It's a great way to learn a lot of helpful tips and ideas about how to play and what guns are good, what ups are good.

Have fun playing paintball and on this forum!

read a lot before you post questions about things. Also if you want to know something, there is a Search tool that you can use to find a thread(s) about what you are looking for.
