Do a search mate. Its been covered lots of times.

Short of it. Yes, you can take your paintball gear no problem. Just make sure everything is degassed and the tank is completely empty. Don't mention anything about your equipment unless asked directly what something in your bag is - it just confuses the poor airport staff.
