Hey, im kinda new to paintballing, done it a few times and love it!
I originally brought some SMK paintball gun.. went paintballing last saturday and thought uh... that sucks, after the first round.... fortunately combat paintball had a shop so i could do something about it... Now i've got an Ion, seems to be a nice gun, just gotta get myself a hold on a new hopper and a longer barrel!
For any of you who go to snetterton on sundays im sure ull see me about soon, just gotta sort out my gear!

Anyway hi :D

Any tips on Equip or anything just throw my way!

What he said^^^. Welcome dude, having all the right gear is great, but be careful not to fall into the trap of getting caught up in buying stuff when you could be playing! Snetterton's an awesome site, have fun bro!

True a lot of newbies buy loads of stuff and then have no money to play!

Just enjoy it for the time and figure out what you are going to be playing! Then you know what equipment to buy. Woodsball or supair then you can buy the stuff that suits you and the game

Hope I have helped ;)
 

e-whore

clean, play on!!!!

Haha, thanks for the barrel advice, just had heard a few extra inches on you're barrel gives you better accuracy!
Dont worry, I have a good job to pay for this so i havent financially mugged myself tho i see it is well expensive, oh and deffo a sweet pair of goggs is a must! So far all i've got on list before i get out there more is a jersy, some pants, and a new hopper and new goggs obviously, currently got some plain black V force ones.

Which Vforce goggs? Profilers and Grillz are awesome masks, so if you have a pair you may as well stick with them. If not, the only real "must" for goggs is a thermal lens to prevent fogging up, and then comfort comes a close second. What hoppers are you looking at?

My mask is littery just like the low grade rental style V force ones. So deffo need a better pair.
As for Hoppers i've seen a couple i like being:

Revoloution Eye Force in the camo colour.
Empire Magna Drive in blue
Halo B with rip drive + V35 board

they're all sorta around what i want to be paying, so any other ideas welcome!
