Hi guys, I thought I'd appeal to the paintball community for any help or info people might have picked up while browsing classifieds/ebay/etc. I arrived at our reball gym to find that our club kitbag (a black and red proto bag) had been pinched. In it were 5 ions(4 blue, one silver) with SP on/offs, q-locks, and freak barrels; 2 reloader 2's, 3 eggs, a chrono (one of the grey ones), 1700 reballs in stickered up food storage containers, blowers, a dive tank fill rig, 4 1.1L steelies, and 2 bunkers. If anyone's seen any item of that description being sold together or suspiciously cheap, please let me know! We've filed a report with police and the uni security, but figured the more eyes out there the better. We're all gutted, so hopefully they'll catch the b@stards. Cheers

Cheers dudes. I'm just hoping they're too stupid to figure out how to use them, as the bottles had air in them and reballs could seriously hurt someone. We're hoping that the uni's insurance will cover them, but it looks like a long period of reconstruction ahead.

Unfortunately, I don't believe we have serial numbers of any of the markers, but we're hoping it's covered under the university's insurance (after all, it was in a storage cupboard with several other societies' kit), or failing that through the student union's insurance. I'm currently investigating what options are open to us, but at the very least we're going to try to get some more reballs, bungs, and an A-clamp for the divetank so we can get our reball sessions back under way. It mainly pisses me off because the club kit is there to help introduce new guys to paintball.
