guns and the users, where are you??

[Tom Allen]

Just thought about the types of guns and the peeps who buy them.

Where are you in the social circle of paintball, and your choice of marker.



Timmies = sci-fi geeks

Egos = chav city

Angels = techy

shockers = self obsessed

ions = cheapo/newbie

tippmans = no idea

dm/pm = pretentious

cockers = sheep

mags = arty

matrix = will try anything

pumps = weekend MGBGT (replace with any old car) user

hybrid = post whore

What does it mean if you've owned all of them? Or possibly even still own all of them?

Does that mean your a technically minded sci-fi chav who is self obsessed with whether he looks like a n00b or not?

my version


Timmies = a big trader/seller, gun whore

Egos = into the game

Angels = chavy and a bit blingy, there are some tech heads there tho

shockers = wannabe agg

ions = newbie/ just getting in to the game

tippmans = woodsballers

i vote for a HYBRID group

 

[Tom Allen]

sorry mate i missed that, what did you say

 

[yorgie]

(most) pump markers - Old... very very old.

Duckslide phantoms - legendary

eteks - cheap chavs

Hybrid shockers - welsh

do i need to say any more?

edit - realistically, this is probably true: most mechanical mags and cockers are shot by dare i say.. the dinosaurs of uk ball, whereas the 07 borgs and egos are shot by idiots with big wallets, or who really, really love paintball....

Question is how does these groups affect you when you're shooting a particular marker due to sponsorship?

 

[Tom Allen]

sponsored guys choose the gun you like, not what your sponsor tells you to like.
