Having just read Chris Iaquinta's article in the feb issue of PGI about essential kit to have, I was wondering how much all that stuff would cost. I mean there are 20 items on the list (10 on the budget one) and not including the second marker, protective equipment, personal fill station and handheld chrono, how much do you reckon all that stuff would cost?
As for barrels, what type do the majority of players use and how the hell do u check the bore size is just right? :confused:

thanx all,

price wise, lets see:

3 & 5 - tools... depends a lot on what marker you use, i just take the allen keys i need and a special wrench for my impulse, and a phillips screwdriver... so mine probably cost me £15ish

4 - orings... cheap for CO2 ones... seals for inside of marker more expensive... All my impy spares probably cost me about £30.

7 - gun oil.... depends on what u use... Dow 33 for my impy about £10 but lasts forever and longer

8- paintball cooler... what the hell is that, no need in the UK!

9- goggle lenses etc... lenses about £15 but obviously depends on what goggle sysytem u use

10 Goggle fan - don't use one, never needed it but the vortex is like £40ish from Planet.

11. Batteries and hopper... 9vs vary, decent ones like £4ish each... i need 3 spares so say £15... spare hopper (12v revvy) about £50.

12 Spray Bottle... DIY stor job.. £3/4

13. Barrel bags etc... came with my goggles and barrel.. otherwise barrel bags are like £10ish

14. Extra pods.. we have team pods but they're likt £2.50 each.. say £15 for spares

15. Squeegies... i have a straight shot (£10ish) and a barrel polisher (£8ish) say £20 total?

17. Podgee.... never heard of

18 Talking timer... cool idea but no idea of cost guess £5

20. JT Gearsack... mine is sooooo sexy:D but expensive at about £120.

Total roughly... £180/ £220 with a goggle fan but that's if u have nothing at all hanging around at home and u buy it all new..... plus a gearsack if u wanna shell out for it. :)
