Your skill at speed ball is half determined by your gun and how much money was put into it. In woodsball even a pump action can be efective.

Very true, but you have to be really really good to be effective with a pump. Not just anyone can jump into a woodsball game and take 10 players with 10 shots.

Yeah woodsball is pretty ghey. Me and my brother used to play speedball and he took it a little more serious than me and played for High Octane, Team Creme, and Team Ignition and traveled all over the place playing. Played up against the likes of Chris Lasoya and Rocky Cagnoni. It was pretty freakin sweet. Anyways. If I didn't have my current project to finish I would join you guys but funds are lacking.

ur bro is eric right?

[thurmanmerman]

I think I remember you. Did you used to be on FMpaintball.com?

I still have my old school Bruizer Outlaw. Grew up playing woodsball, thought about starting a team but never really happened. I don't even know if my gun works anymore. Maybe we should get together and play some woodsball sometime...I know I'll suck but it might give me enough motivation to go through my gun and get it shooting again.

If you need help getting it working let me know I used to do all of scheels paintball work.

I'd have to check my gun,it hasn't been fired in a while, but if you get people together I could probably get about 10 people to play on shortish notice. And My brother and I have a few extra guns each.

I need to buy a gun, but I'd be up for playing some woodsball. Only played a couple times ever, so I suck...but it is fun!

[Joel]

ive always wanted to play. just never went and bought a gun. Let me know, I'm down for a game sometime.

[GnArKiLl]

well my friend own's a shop down here and if you guys need gun's or grear i can probly get you a deal

[Rexwagon]

i just got a new paintball gun today in the mail. where can i get nitrogen tanks filled at? it uses nitrogen instead of co2. i got a great deal. its a spyder imagine electric. with 4 shot rates, full auto, 2 round burst, 3 round burst and semi. electric hopper and a aftermarket barrel. traded a guy online a few small car parts for it. so when does everyone want to play?

[thurmanmerman]

Scheels fills them.

[GnArKiLl]

it can still use co2

[Rexwagon]

ok thanks for the help. thurman, u remeber a ballpark price?

[Colin]

Get an A-5 chuck, it's heavyish but you'll never regret it. easiest gun to maintain and will take any abuse.

Haven't done it in a long time but its prolly gonna be around the $10 range. It depends on your size of tank. They charge this amount of dollars for this amount of air, but I don't remember how much it is. If your going to play alot I would suggest on getting a scuba tank from one of the dive shops in town and an adapter to fill your tank. To start out its a little bit spend(tank is like $200 and the adapter is lik $50 or something) but to fill your scuba at a dive shop is cheap for the amount of fills you get out of it. My brother would always do that. I think he said he paid like $3 or $5 buck to fill a scuba.
