i like it alot.... HOWEVER! i would like it alot more if i had my gun
working.
my friggen batt. wires riped out of the thing that connects to my
battery. so i neeed to get a new board.
im getting -- http://www.pbreview.com/products/reviews/4775/
also i cant use my trigger that i have either, becuase i lost the
spring. and i dont like it because the trigger pull is too long and
the debounce sucks. im going with -- http://www.pbreview.com/products/reviews/5144/
and last but not least a new barrel. i cant stand the inacurate stock
barrel that i have.. plus its only 12 inchas long and thats too short
for me. im goin with a 14" Redz Pepper Stickz 2 peice barrel kit, i
know i said i was getting a stiffi but the kit is 200 bucks so i was
like "screw that" so i looked up on Pbreview.com and soon enough this
looked really good --http://www.pbreview.com/products/reviews/3271/
i know it says "retail price $190" but on Ebay its 89 bucks.

so Rampage board - 89.99
Shocktech duel barring trigger - 32.99ish
redz pepperstickz - 89.99
Total of 210 ish.
so i prob. wont be playing much ontill i get these upsgrades.
OH!! and ima get i better QEV so i can soot a pretty line of 30+ ROF

and i should also add the future goodies

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
L6 bolt.. 13.6 grams.. and no kick
-- http://www.pbreview.com/products/reviews/4464/

so yeah there are som thingys.
im also getting a harness somwhere along there so yeah like 300 bucks
but my tion will be shooting and looking like a shocker and way better
than i nerve. knowing that i will have spent 600+ bucks for all the
stuff after these purchases

anyway the sniper game is fin. i thing that we should just have a game
on that size field or something. but it would have to be next year
because im not going to use my ion in the winter. if i get my
autococker working i will use that because its a tad cheaper and less
can go wrong if anything does.. which it shouldnt. i might just broing
it up to the not-so-local shot in addison county along with getting
the rampage board installed. but i need to get my frame milled for the
keypad.

OK, so it seems like people like the sniper game, but like the field
more.
THe reason we dont play regular (normal 3 on 3 for example) on the big
field is because its too big for a game like that, if it were 7 on 7
then we might.
THe big field is good for snipers because there are more places for
them to hide and it is harder for the hunters because they have to
look in more places.

As many of you know (or at least mike does) i am thinking (seriously)
about switching to airsoft. PB is just too expensive.
I just uploaded a file of a chart i made, it shows the prices for
paintball vs. airsoft.

i wouldnt just switch over because of the cost.. i mean which is more
fun? deff paintball, and you going to need to pay either way. if you
just go play at colchester and do well, you win paintball markers..
which you sell or use to get paintballs or other equipment. and you
CAN use an MR1 to play speedball. you could use a pump for all i care.
alot of people use tippmann 98s and alot of the paintball places use
tippmanns for rental guns. or they have the cheap walmart rentals. you
dont need an E-frame to do what you want to do. hell, i would use your
MR1 or something. the pro's dont just shoot 15-19 bps to get people
out. they have PSP mode which is like ramping. or they have NXL mode
which you pull the trigger 4 times and if you hold it down on the 5th
time it will turn to automatic. and they usually shoot really fast off
the break. the front players only wrap around bunkers and shoot about
5 times to get the people out. (snap shooting) back players shoot the
fastest because they cover the sides of the field. and they basicky
hold about 12 pods and keep fireing thouout the game for a continuois
10 minutes.

Back Players -- shoot thoughout the game (usually fat)

Mid Players -- cover for back players or front players

Front - carry abbout 3-4 pods and they need to be fast and small to
snap around the bunkers to get the people.

and if you go to tounrneys you win things.. if you play you win
tourneys.. so next spring WE ARE GOING TO FRICKIN COLCHESTER AND
PLAYING!

DUDE!!! I am pretty sure that they have about the same funnness.
My only problem is people to play with. But i have already solved that
problem.
I have a few friends who are really into it. They play like every
other weekend (i dont actually know, but they DO play more than us)
I think that saving $150 is pretty good. I might be able to play both,
depends on how cheap i can get an airsoft gun.
Oh and also, you can play more games of airsoft. Instead of refilling
your tank
(which can only be done by going to Dicks or hickin all the way to
burlington (mike))
all you hafta do is charge your battery, or just pop another one in
(30 bucks at most for another bat, depending on which one you get. It
also increases bps and power, basically a new board and airline and
tank)

okay.. but if you are going to get really into it the airsoft pellets
arnt cheap, you need to buy about 8000 for an event.. so at like 20
bucks a package.. 20 40 60 80.. thats $80 per weekend or event.

plus 150 for gun

you will need a vest for the clips..

add 85

later on you will need a gas pistol.. 100 to that

and extra clips.. 50 (cheap) (you will you will need mid-high caps)

alright so 150+85+100+50.. so thats 385 for equipment..

add 80 per weekend so an equasion for that would be 80xW+385= total
cost

so there are 3 weekends in a month so.. about 8 months of airsoft
playtime.. i will take away 1 week from every month..

so 8x2=16 so (80x16)+385= 1415.. so 1100 bucks per season? just for
ammo..


or in paintball.. I CAN SUPpLY PAINT! ontill we get a sponsor. when we
get a sponsor we can play more. but we cant get a sponsor if you dont
wanto play very often.

here is people playing SPEEDBALL with tippmann 98s (you can use a MR1
to play speedball)
