if not is this a good starter pump gun just to use in the backgarden??

In a word-NO!
That package is simply a plastic gun which will break as soon as you use it! And the triad is fine but it is a limiting gun in various ways.
CO2 is rarely used these days as well so ignore it.
How much do we want to play paintball? If you want to really start playing as a walk on or team player you will need to invest more than this. Get yourself down to some walk on days or tournaments and chat to the players for advice and 'how to'
Good Luck.

It is really hard to understand what you are writing here but importing a GAT in from the USA then leads to import taxes and duties so support local retailers. [If that's what you were suggesting] :confused:

Echoing this, most walk-on players are the nicest bunch of players in the world and will be more than happy to give you some tips and maybe even let shoot a few at the range, speak to the site manager before just walking onto your local field though, common courtesy and all that ;)

Where abouts are you based, you can probably find some people on here that are willing to let you have a look at their stuff before hand
