ok thank you mike for your input, i think we need you to read ur posts twice before posting them please...


i think what everybody means is, once you play a little bit and decide that paintball is for you, then come into the store to see a wide variety of guns and we will match you up with one that is perfectly suited for you(it MAY be a phantom)

Mike you sound like a complete idiot. Every post you've made just makes me think your getting dumber.

I agree with mini ben.

Just play paintball with what you have and upgrade as you see fit. If you don't pay but every other month or so, it might be worth your money to keep that gun and gear. Don't let these little kids with their parent's credit cards intimidate you. Play with what you have for a while and eventually upgrade what you feel is necessary.

i use about two bags when i play with my pump and sometimes more, it all depends on how many people are there playing. More targets, more paint is shot.
