I like paintball, but it has nothing to do with my gun addiction.
This is a misunderstanding many peole have. Many paintballer never had real gun in hand.

We shoud not drag real firearms into this forum as there are many kids who visit the site.

You wanna talk about real guns go to shooting clubs forum.

my 2p...


I like paintball because of the people who play it. I met many good friends through paintball and I am tottaly hooked to playing :)

WTF has kids got to do with it ? my kids go on this forum! so whats going to happen ? its not a specific gun or firearm,its just a background question. This is a misunderstanding many people have is when a kid reads about or sees a gun on a video game or tv he/she will go on a killing rampage. im not too sure on that one m8 :)

Because if kids hear about guns their eyes will fire bullets at all their classmates and then their heads will explode.

I used to go shoot handguns with my dad and bro when I was younger (back in LA) but that has nothing to do with why I play paintball. It might have something to do with why people like to dry-fire their markers excessively though :p "Look at me, I'm shooting my gat!!"

would somebody PLEASE think of the children :D:D

tbh if theyre inspired to go shoot up a school because someone reminded them they use paintball "guns" every other weekend, then their mental health should be in question.

I used to love target shooting with the CCF at school, especially the proper scoped rifles, but getting in to paintball was completely different.
