To an extent...

You do need the right kit to be a good player, if your kit limits what you can do on the field it will be harder to progress. If you can only afford a nelspot pump for example, your not going to be able to develope new gun skills or realistically compete in the modern game...

Thats a very good point- maybe buying good kit allows people to play to their full potential.

Exactly, if your kit isn't the problem, theres only the skills to focus on.

But I still think there are those that believe buying loads of expensive and the lattest gear makes them play better.

yeh i'm in on that too

had a two year break from paintball, on my return bought an angel. found that the new reliability and speed of the marker gave me more confidence in the game than maybe i should of had.

now i've got an e-blade fantastic marker, accurate, fast i can't blame equipment for my failures.

the better marker gave me more confidence without worrying whether i was gonna chill down( old mag on co2) or chop a gazillion balls (angel) we're currently having quite a good time at tourneys at the mo and i place a fair portion of that on my marker.

You'r ein the UK, it's ok you don't know.

Castle Conquest 16, pumps vs semis. Answer to the question if it's guns or brains that you really need to play 'ball.

Hence, bring it on. :) I'll be in the castle, with my pump gun. And I think we can prove that you don't need the high tech toys to get the job done.
