just a quickie,

Hi all, I've just joined the forum, I'm based in the West Midlands, a group of Us have just bought some basic equipment to start private matches on private land so nothing too extreme,

Thanks, we re looking forward to getting started, we are going down the co2 route, Then maybe further down the road we will swap to air, I bought the bt-4 combat slice, liking the option of the upgrades, I've also been looking at the Tiberius 8.1

welcome! as a quick suggestion, unless you already have your co2 equipment there, using air is just as easy and a lot better to work with than co2 when it comes to paintball. Other than that, have a blast! Try and get along to an actual paintball site when you can as well, a lot more people to play with and having some purpose built game zones is always going to make it a bit more fun.

I think once we have had a few games we may venture into 'professional' sites, I am going visit warped in Wolverhampton and talk to them, we already have the co2 set up

What would be the minimum safety equipment, obviously masks are a requirement but are padded tops and trousers that necessary ? Being shot with paintballs isn't nice but doesn't that give you more incentive not to get shot?

 

[Mr. Animal]

please see you tube as to why most players where jerseys and playing trousers. being shot is 1 thing sliding across the floor ripping skin from collar to crotch just makes it less fun


been there done that.

That sounds nice! May have to invest in some adequate clothing then haha
