Getting back into paintball after 7 years out

[K.C.]

I used to play paintball all the time I am getting back into it and wanted some advice on places to play. I have just got a GOG enemy with various extras and just looking for a good walk on spot any ideas? I am from Dunstable in Bedfordshire. Any local sites do good walk on events? I have looked around and found a few just wanted people's advice on where they play. Also looking to get into mag fed as well at a later date.

Welcome back. Cant help on Dunstable really as its a bit far north for me. I am sure someone closer will be able to help on that. Have you picked up all the other bits you need, critically a good set of goggles?

@Hobo_Joe yeh I have picked up a pair of empire vents, a annex battle pack, halo too hopper, .8ltr air bottle all I need now is a good jersey and a pair of pants

Plenty really good deals to be had in the for sale section when you reach 20 posts (constructive not spam) or get Plat. Will save a bundle going forward.

Halo is a good purchase, they are so cheap and will last you a good while before you feel an upgrade is needed. Especially for walkons.

Halo is an old force fed hopper. One of the early ones if i remember correct.

Wow this makes me feel old having people never hear of Halo hoppers. I remember when Angel markers and halo hoppers where some of the best kit you could buy and autocockers where still around and not the resurrection model they have now. I used to love my autococker and the wonderful clacking noise they made when fired awww the good old days

Lol, I spoke to my bro today. He was telling me to go buy an angel. He was a huge fan

Yeh it's finding them though my cousin still has his and won't even let me take it out. But then again it is limited edition and he paid huge domes of money for it
