Hey its my job to plug the NPFOriginally posted by stickboy
The next time I see myself going back up to NPF is the last Sunday in Sept as I'm away on the second Sunday, but I'm gonna get membership as it's a better all-round deal for own-gunners. (£25 for 1 year, entrance to site £12.50 and 3p per ball).
Glad you had a good time. The NPF site is www.wdp-paintball.co.uk/npf think it has the walk-on dates on their, or their number is 0800 358 3965 or 0121 327 3961.
Starter guns? My god there is no end to the threads on that subject. Most people would say Tippmans or Spyders. Because they are relatively cheap, and Tippmans are almost indestructable. Others say if you want to go up a notch a 2nd hand cocker or mag. Though I would suggest the Mag, less things to go wrong. But with a cocker you can get millions and squllions of upgrades put on so you in theory could get a cocker thats a few years old and make it into a newbie scaring machine!
In the end its all up to your budget and what else you need (Pod pack/goggles/gloves/pads etc). Suggestion though, dont blow all your money on a marker otherwise you'll have to wait ages to play. Which I've done twice now
