I started back in the late '80s. I don't go too often anymore but usually to SC Village. I like speedball but play rec too. My current gun is a Freeflow Merlin autococker with Race frame, no longer in production but shoots great. That spyder have the electric trigger? If so just add an electric hopper and it should shoot pretty good. You don't need to spend thousands on a hot gun to have fun. I figured out playing tournaments that even though I crouch I'm a larger target than these 10 year olds and they can run faster too.

Man I've only been out of the hobby for a few yeas and people at the park are already calling my Auto Cocker an tique. I spent like $1100 on that dam thing like 7 years ago. I just gave it to my brother who turne it in to a pump. I’m all up for an RC paintball day if anyone wants to put a private party together.

I used to go to Skirmish USA all the time when I lived in Philly. Best fields I have ever played on! Out here I have gone to a few places in San Deigo with some buds and that's about it.

I was never serious enough about it to buy my own marker. I just rented. I did play enough to make buying a good mask and some support equipement worth while.

If you do it before the end of the year and I am in town, I would be up for it.

How about we dress you up in a white t-shirt with a bullseye painted on it to run around while the rest of us chase you with markers!!!!

Ok I vote

I guess you don't know my wife, I'm always bruised.

BTW if Jungle Island is still in business I prefer that park. SE is nice but way too big and we don’t get anywhere near enough games in. Smaller parks are more layback and easy going.

jjirsa78 · #13 11/16/2007, 04:44 PM

SC Village.

ZeRo 91 · #14 11/16/2007, 04:46 PM

I just recently played for my first time here at a local park and man I love it, so if you guys get a group thing going let me know and you can count me and 2 other roommates in for sure.

ttomkat1 · #15 11/16/2007, 05:04 PM

I used to go to SC Village all the time. Got really tired of going when all these young kids had their parents buy them top of the line full auto guns and they would just sit under a log w/their guns out shooting non stop. Here I am trying to save every shot cause I didn't buy enough ammo because I needed money for lunch haaha!

gl, getting back into it.

I used to play speedball at California Paintball Park up in Castaic. Had a team there but haven't played in a while. Almost went pro-am NPPL sponsored by Worr Games.

raskal311 · #17 11/16/2007, 05:10 PM

hahaha you hate those 12 year olds with $2000 guns too?

Scissorhand · #18 11/16/2007, 05:14 PM

AhhH the cheaters, using iced balls and higher pressure.

Don't play with people you don't know.

Corriander · #19 11/16/2007, 05:18 PM

There is nothing quite like going up against some 12yr old wielding a full-auto, remote fed, N2 powered electronic marker mommy dropped $2K for Christmas . . . and then popping him in the face with your rented POS Tippman 98 in one shot.

Bebo77 · #20 11/16/2007, 05:24 PM

jjb81speed · #23 11/16/2007, 07:34 PM

how about you guys get a couple of teams and the losers have to dish out frags. since i dont paintball i will be the judge/ref. you guys all give me all of the frags to hold, and the winners can receive their prize from my tank when its all said and done.
