    New Lens or New Mask?!?

    For my current favorite - Grills, there are so many colour configurations that there is often a complete set for less or not much more than the price of just a lens. For others the lens could be anything from half the price of a full set upwards. Lenses with the most fancy finish do cost much...

    New Lens or New Mask?!?

    It tends to be cheaper for just the lens if that’s all that needs changing. But if the strap has loosened or the foam is a bit tired then for many goggles you’re heading towards being better off with a new set. If you’re happy with the rest of the goggles then you can just go for the lens, but...

Carbon is nice and fancy, slightly lighter, absorbs vibration etc Freaks give you the option to fine tune barrel sizing to meet the batch of paintballs you are using on the day and aiming...

    Epilepsy

    I’m not sure about any specific insurance, (reputable) sites have insurance for any liability, have processes in place for a higher reasonable emergency etc There should be no reason to prevent him enjoying paintball. Some activities can be beneficial to epileptics reducing the frequency and...

    Team Practice Training Days (Individual Players)

    Hello & welcome In the UK the majority of paintball is for one off or occasional rental players. They have a nominal entry price and then paintballs are at their highest price. This isn’t what you would be interested in A number of sites run walk ons once a month. A walkon is likely to have...

    Selling all my gear, buyer from Estonia??

    No particular knowledge for Estonia, but you can be scammed more closer to home. The revised classifieds rules on here came following scam buyers in the Sutton Coldfield triangle If you see signs that worry you then don’t go ahead But it’s entirely possible that you have a genuine buyer that is...

    First strike rounds

    I have used them a little, one of our guys has put them to good use. They cost more, can’t be used in a hopper and have plastic which means they are photodegradable rather than bio degradable. The broken fins are around longer, particularly in the woods, and won’t degrade if trampled into the...

    TM15 price check

    Any thoughts on pricing on a TM15? This is the limited edition tan TM15 with custom TM Apex2 barrel (This came to me as a swap within the team of a different gun picked up in a bundle .... so pricing will guide the decision point whether to sell or hang on in the armoury)

    Getting back into it!! 4 years out

    For the gun - if it works then it will still hold it’s own. Gun rate of fire and hopper feed rates have not changed, technology could squeeze out some more speed or efficiency but maximum ROF is capped For the cylinder it’s up to you for preference. Fills will still be mostly 3000psi except for...

    Is This A Pivotal Moment? It's Up To You.....

    For the Sport England supporting information, UKPSF needs to be able to backup that membership is valid to show that they actively participate rather than just pursuing the most possible numbers. For any membership fees contributing to the budget, then it doesn’t matter how much of a...

    Is This A Pivotal Moment? It's Up To You.....

    @Tony Harrison just states 1850, but that’s related to the UKPSF target which requires ‘real’ members, and covers both growth of membership and their work over the last few years on Sport England and also wider government recognition
