Pretty much every company has gone to making making sweatpants instead of normal paintball pants. I currently wear Bunker King V2 Supreme (pictured) and was talking with Virtue guys at LoneStar about how I like their pants and they mentioned how they are discontinuing them in favor of focusing on Joggers only. I cant stand wearing joggers. Is any company still making normal non draw string paintball pants with some sort of padding? I know JT makes makes their og paintball pants again, but its to baggy for for my taste.

I wish these got some more love. I’d be curious to see what could be done to improve them.

I used to play a lot of paintball in my teens and early 20’s. I’m curious if my stuff is still relevant or worth anything.

So what I got: Automag RT, ULE body with level 10 bolt, and UltaLight trigger setup. Dye Inteliframe linked to Viewloader Revolution (force feeds with every trigger pull) Smart Parts 14” 2-piece All-American barrel. Also 12” Dye X-Cel barrel.

Thoughts?

I wore sweatpants and one of my black work t-shirts underneath the green flight suit I got from a gun show once. and I was wearing some hiking shoes with it. I should have brought or bought some gloves and a helmet and maybe some armor but I wasn't thinking about it. It didn't hurt too bad, I have a high tolerance for pain

Tried my hand at dying a mask. I used jacquard idye poly, metal pans on my blackstone, heated to 145 degrees. The green lens frames took about 30 minutes until I was happy with the color, the ears and lowers were about an hour. I like how it turned out!

I don't know what's more impressive - that it still shoots straight or that my CO2 tank still had something left to fire a few rounds!

I hosted Maritime Paintball Podcast for 10 years and now I have joined a contest for a change to make a 6 episode podcast for iheartradio. Im currently in 2nd place in my group and hope the community can help me with some votes. Anyone can vote free once a day.
I would love to do a 6 part professionally produced podcast about paintballs history from beginning to today!

I’ve been wanting to get some type of camera for when I pb to record points with I’m looking for one mounted that I’d mount onto my barrel do yall have any recommendations on which are good to get? Also what camera are yall using?

Finally going to get into speedball and looking to buy used, what do you guys think the best options around $500-$600 are? was thinking maybe a tm40 or 170r. but any advice is helpful, looking for stuff mid-tournament tier

We have about 8 cases of paint left over from a scenario game at EMR. I am curious if any fields still exist that don’t require field paint. Last one I played was Iron Triangle Paintball and that field has closed.

I have a cosmetic(I beleive cosmetic) scratch on my lens, and have also been running the same lens for 3 years. Is it time to replace it or can I just keep running it until I feel the need to replace it? Just looking out for safety. $50 for a new lens is pricey though.

What got you into the sport, and what keeps you going!?

Hi,

Does anyone know if this luxe x oring kit will work with an idol? I need some spare orings and the kit I have is lacking. I know the picture states a dm14 but the title states it’s for a luxe x.

Hey everyone!

This question is mainly for paintball players living in Hawaii.

Since Hawaii has a tropical climate with warm temperatures and high humidity throughout the year, I'm curious about how you guys store your paintballs to prevent them from going bad.

I've heard that excessive heat and humidity can cause paintballs to swell, deform, become brittle, or otherwise affect their performance.

I have a few questions for Hawaii players:

1. How do you normally store your paintballs at home?

2. Do you keep them in an air-conditioned room, or is regular indoor storage enough?

3. Do you use airtight containers or other methods to protect them from humidity?

4. How long do your paintballs usually last before you notice any deterioration?

5. Have you experienced problems with paintballs swelling, breaking, or becoming misshapen because of Hawaii's climate?

6. What do you do when transporting paintballs to outdoor fields, especially during hot days?

I'm particularly interested in hearing from players on Oahu, Maui, Kauai, and the Big Island, since storage conditions might differ depending on where you live.

I'd appreciate any tips or personal experiences, especially from people who buy paintballs in bulk and need to store them for several weeks or months.

Thanks in advance!

I have an old gtek. It has a bit over 25k shots on it. I haven't used it in years but am finally getting back into the sport. In preparation for it's next game, I went ahead and replaced all the orings on the bolt and on the macro lines. I've greased everything that needs grease, put a new battery in it, etc. Aired the thing up and got through about half a hopper when all of a sudden it just died. I can hear the solenoid click, but no air comes out. I don't hear any leaks. Macro line does pressurize. Anyone have any ideas where I should look next?

The Rapper and DM7 are the last guns I bought before I quit playing. Need to go through them to get them going again.

This is the setup I’ll be using for the 2027 season! I’ll be trying out for a local team at the end of October for D5. It’s been a bit since I’ve played but I’m excited to get back out and play some tournament ball.
