Hot news ... don’t know when it happened, but PayPals exclusion of Paintball under their firearms policy was lifted. If it’s legal in the country concerned then PayPal allows it
It was dramatic when PayPal (and Facebook) were anti Paintball as part of anti gun, but very quiet when things get covered
(when using Facebook make sure to pay properly with standard PayPal payments including fees to buy your chocolate with or without free paintball guns)
So no excuse for evading any rules and not including PayPal fees etc

What is PayPal’s policy on transactions that involve firearms?
We don’t allow PayPal members to buy or sell any kind of firearm, whether it’s in working order or not. The same goes for certain firearm parts and ammunition.
For example, using PayPal, you can’t buy or sell:
Related items that you can buy and sell using PayPal include paintball guns, blank guns, and air-soft guns, as long as such transactions are legal in the applicable jurisdiction. All of these items must display the markings required by law, must not be convertible to shoot a lethal projectile, and can’t include blank ammunition.
