Skyhawk but i wana know, can i take it to punter days, cause walk-ons normaly only happen once a month

yes walkons only happen once a month at any one site but if your in the london/surrey area and are are willing to get out of bed early enough to be serious about playing with other walkon players wich in turn will help u improve ur skill level then it is possible to find a differant site to play on each weekend. once the christmas silly season is over.

right of the top of my head i can think of campaign, camelot and holmbush in crawley and if you can get there lps have a site and they do walkons as well, camoloet and holmbush r reasonbly near to train stations if u dont drive to not make it impossible i dont know about the lps site as i`ve only been there once and i drive.

punter hunting...

Campaign runs one walk on a month, Camelot (Surrey Paintball Club) runs one on a different week, One of the sites in Maiden head runs one too, and there's a good one in Reding too, so you can go to a walk on event every weekend if you're prepared to drive about an hour.

Walkons are great!
If you do go to a punter day, be prepared to be hassled/shunned by punters. Like some others said, you get a real benefit from playing at a walkon, and the bonus of socialising with other ballers.

Hello!

Give the place your going to a ring and see what they say. I went to Delta force recently and they allowed my friend and I to use our markers.

They needed to check them first (pointed at a tree and shot it a few times and said "Well it looks like it ain't firing hot, you can use it") The only thing you aren't allowed to use is your own paint. But like I said, contact them and see what they say.

cheers i'll do that, but i don't recon they'll let me use a impulse and btw what marker where u using?

Hehe, i can answer that. He uses a Spyder Electra, i use a (low pressure ) Piranha. I dunno if they'd let you use an Impy though lol, tis a bit unfair on the punters.

Hi Guys, What's this?????

So no Crono i guess???, you should never play on a site without a Crono, all players with their own kit should be should pass the crono too, it's alright taking a players gun and to say, Ho Yer that's ok, What about if players start turn up to their markers ??? most players won't do that , they know the danger, but some will i can tell that now and for what?? to get that extra yard on the field

Iam not having a go you Mazz, Iam having a go about the site you played at, it's for your safety and other players around you.

On our rec days all players go the the crono at the start of the day, the limit is 280 fps if they go over they turn them down, as a game comes to an end we will pull players from each team randomly to go to the crono, this way we can make sure everyone is firing at a safe fps, we will also do this if we have walkons on any corporate custmer day too
