it is yeah if you want to buy a new one but you can still come accross the old smart parts ions second hand

 

[Edward]

Ok great! What is better ion or eXTCY?

 

[GRIMLOCK]

Extcy as its slightly more refined than the ion I believe

 

[Spooly]

Extcy is a better verision of the ion it comes STOCK with on/off asa a clamping feedneck also it is bolt out the back design so its alot easier/ quicker to clean. and they have sorted out the regulator so you dont need a spanner to adjust it

Not a problem being 14 there are a quite a few younger members that play. (14-18) and then you have us old timers.

Depends on site insurance - some wont allow players under 18 or 16.. a few go as low as 14

You need to check with site operators beforehand

Just my 2p's I would use the money for a decent set of goggles( I used to hate rentals as they never quite fit properly and you don't really know how well they have been treated, remember you only get one set of eyes!) next get a decent hopper that you can use on the tippmans that apoc have that lot in itself will step you above the rest of the other punters, then save up to get a cheap ion or such like

This is the best advice here so far - If you are going to spend £60 anywhere spend it on playing gear like goggles, boots or pads or soft kit. Beg, borrow or rent a marker/hopper/air tank until you..

A/ Decide what type suits your game and budget

B/ Have some real income of your own to spend on the game

Paintball isn't a cheap sport/hobby to finance. Unless you have lots of spare cash or can find sponsorship, it'll be difficult to afford to play regularly - paint alone costs approx £25-30 a box. It's taken me years of graft to assemble the level of kit I now own, so don't expect it fall in your lap overnight. I didn't start playing until 1989 aged 25, but worked full time from 16 so had the £££ to afford it when needed.

On the website it has min age 12 if you want to double check give Jamie a call

can i recommend a marker called the smart parts vibe also known now as the envy , these are great markers , you might be able to find one very cheap !
and also when buying a marker check your site to see what they use to power there markers ! , some sites do not allow compressed air

 

[Spooly]

The site he plays at in London the indoor place uses vibes as rental so it says on thier site so he should no how good they are and could maybe get a second hand one from them
