Well to make the point it has nothing to do with SC hehe

Paintballing is pretty cool, I've got the so called "cheap" brand gun but it works pretty nice, and Ive moded it (yes it can be done, some pb guns are even designed for it, "custom 98" for instance)

As to frag, if anyone is wondering it's Canada's largest LAN Party =D held in Edmonton Alberta, quite close to where I live, so of course im going, taking all kinds of stuff. Maybe Ill spread an online SC melee around at it(depends on what Conathan and I come up with by then)

I never tried paintball, and I live in a huge LAN net already... Paintball might be cool to try though. Do you have a drafting army in Canada? cuz usually ppl get enough of the "running around shooting" stuff over there....

automag... lucky, ive got a modded el cheapo, Brass Eagle Avenger, put a custom barrel on it and built myself a 'forward' handle fits nicely around the airline and stuff. Could have bought one but cost me $100+ so I built mine for oh $5 hehe, I could explain... ;D

I'm past the Brass Eagle stage, I used to have a Raptor. Now I'm selling the RT and gonna play with my Nightmare pump
Sell your Avenger, buy a Surge DF. Get a nice Spyder valve for it, a Benchmark exp. chamber to act as a gas through, a DYE stainless barrel and a nice chrome Spyder grip frame. Don't forget a Revolution. Then you'll be set. BTW, don't bother with HPA, just get an antisiphon 14 ounce CO2 tank.

It all depends how involved you are. Personally I'd get the Surge, but then who am I to talk? I'll be playing with a 15 year old marker soon.

No, there's no drafting here.

I heard paintball is really big in Iraq...

Paintbal in Iraq? no wonder the US hasn't lost a plane yet  ;D

I've never done it. I think I'd customize my paintballgun to shoot small fighters

or cloak me???

This is another weird branch of our civilization. I don't see how running around in a forest or whatever taking shots at eachother with makebelieve guns can be very much fun, but then again, tastes differ.

Now, if those where REAL guns however...  ;)
