Balling in Edinburgh

[petedaddy2]

I've seen a couple of other threads along these lines but I need to ask specific questions so forgive the duplication!

I know there are a fair few sites in Edinburgh but like others have said it's expensive and aimed at stags etc.

I'm an ex-walkon-er and although I'm now kitless I'm trying to find a site that'll let me and about a dozen noobs do a paintball day that isn't a rip-off. I'm used to buying 2000 balls for £20 so punter rates of £7 per 100 on site doesn't interest me.

So yeah, basically what I'm looking for is:

a) Edinburgh or nearby site that'll rent basic guns/gear to 10-15 people
b) Lets you use your own paint (unlikely but you have to try)
c) Isn't completely ****e/ripoff.

Would be happy to pay £20-30pp for a half day and organise the group/games if needs be, just need kit, guns, and air.

I know it sounds like I'm asking a lot but damn, there must be a market for it.

dont think will find many places at those prices m8. cheepest paint i could find was £25 a box and nowhere near edinburgh. entry and retal on top of that

Yeah I know it's not a cheap sport, but it's going to be a tough day to sell if I say it'll cost £50 and that everyone should try to shoot no more than about a dozen balls a round ;o(

I think you'll be struggling to get it as low as £20 - £30 for a half day, but we do a half day package at Rebellion in Falkirk for £45 which includes 500 paintballs. PM me if you want to discuss it.

Delta force do a nice deal. Half day and 500 paintballs pp for £30. Then you can add lunch on top for another fiver and if you have a code from going before, you can get another 100 balls pp for free.

Delta force aren't half bad if you delve right into their prices and packages.

Thanks PBW, that sounds promising. I'll give them an email to see what kind of deals they can offer.

Bostaf - thanks too, if we get nowhere with DF I'll drop you a PM to discuss.

I guess on their site by 'pellets' they mean regular paintballs? I don't do airsoft
