Ok, here we have the results from my 2006 UK Paintball Statistics survey, this was my first attempt at this kind of research and I know it wasn't perfect but the next one I do will be even more representative of our habits.
Thank you so much to the 108 people that took the time to fill it out, it really added value to my project and I hope that others can also benefit from these results. If you require a more detailed version of the data just send me a pm and we will sort it out. Cheers!
