First off, hello! Nice to be back on the paintball scene after all this time! Looking forward to getting back into the game again!
I've got a few questions that I'm hoping that I can get answered in some form. I'll just get right into them!
Do any Scottish players have any recommendations for sites to play at? 5 years ago it seemed to be somewhat difficult to find a decent site in Scotland. I'm based in Glasgow, so closer to there the better,
Has there been any changes to site/player/spoken/unspoken rules in the last 5 years?
My little Brother is looking to get into paintball as well as we went to a rental day the other week, and he really enjoyed the sport. I'm looking to get him some kit but nothing too expensive in case he decides in the future he'd like to give it up. For this I was thinking something like my first marker which was a preowned Proto PMR. Is this still an acceptable marker for him to start with, or would there be something better to get him? What is a reliable, but cheapish hopper to go along with this?
Further to this point - my Brother is only 15. The guy at the rental site we went to the other week pretty much treated him as an adult as my brother stands around 6 foot 2 inches already and towered above pretty much every other person at the site. Will sites be OK if he comes along to games with me as he is only 15? Can that age happily play with adults?
Think that's pretty much everything I've got just now! If I think of anything else, I'll post them in this thread! Looking forward to (possibly) playing with some of you guys in the future!
