Newbie here :) what marker?

[automag]

Great! It would be awesome to meet some people and play with others at apoc.! I will be down soon but I have recently broken My ankle but I think I'm coming up at easter is Steve the one who is at the place where u sighn in at in the morning? Because he is really nice! He gave us 100 xtra paintballs and let us play on until our paint ran out

No thats not Steve that would have been one of the marshalls.

When you are better give me a PM when you are popping down and I will see if I am free that day and I will meet you at site and introduce you.

Get well soon

Just my 2p's I would use the money for a decent set of goggles( I used to hate rentals as they never quite fit properly and you don't really know how well they have been treated, remember you only get one set of eyes!) next get a decent hopper that you can use on the tippmans that apoc have that lot in itself will step you above the rest of the other punters, then save up to get a cheap ion or such like

Thanks. A lot! ok great I will pm you soon! And I think It is the guy that runs it? He did the talk t the start and also there is a vid on YouTube of him playing naked at a tournament it's hilarious but kinda weird and Im hoping he was drunk! I'm only 14 btw but I hope you treat me as you would treat me as you would treat anyone older

Yeah sometimes, that was marky that played naked, with him that is the tip of the iceberg he will practically do anything if he is dared to lol, also another thing is ask a few of the walk on guys if you can have a go with their markers on the range so you can identify what type of marker you can get used to, some guys won't let you but most are quite accommodating and will let you put some halls through it (your balls of course)

Ok cool and what is your opinion on the piranha GTI because on tech pb they say that this is the best sub £100 marker but that was in 2009 lol and it is for sale in two places at about £50

 

[monkeyman]

Tbh mate save your money and just use site guns for now as 6 months down the line you might might like the sport also if you are thinking of sup air, a piranha just won't cut it, save you money if you really are after a marker for yourself hold fire and keep an eye on the for sale threads, I picked up a proto slg last week for £40 delivered, now it is a basic electro but it can be used in tournaments as well as walk on days

 

[Edward]

Ok thanks

 

[Spooly]

yeah i second that mate definitely hold your horses and save up and wait just incase u dont like it.. and as ur 14 just spend your money on playing if thats what u wanna do

I have recently quit a hobby and my parents are happy to pay for playing and balls and the reason i want my own gear is for apoc. It is something like £10 to be a walk-on member as long as u buy their paint rather than paying £60 for a day if that makes sence
