I know when I would play paintballing, I would use a 12oz and 20oz tank in one day. But I also would turn my velocity all the way up so:p

I was watching that crap on ESPN and its amazing :eek2: Pretty freaking awesome stuff if you ask me, but it would be better if it was out in the woods or something..

My first paintball gun was a pump-action Talon. Then I moved on up to an automatic, Stingray :D.

Sweet I have a Tippmann 98 custom that I used to use, but now I use it as a loaner gun when I wanna play but a friend's gun is broken. Them guns are the most reliable I've seen.

My primary gun is a System-X Cocker. With a 20 oz set up I get around 1500 shots so it's pretty nice.

Congrads on the new gun, paintball is one of the best sports.

I can tell you now though, that 12 oz isn't gonna last all day, thats why I have a 9 and a 20 oz. I bought the 9 oz with the tippmann. I didn't buy the Tippy Package, just the gun which came with the barrel plug, oil, and squeegee.

I got around 500 or so shots out of the 9 oz so I went and bought a 20oz also and them both will last me all day playing frontman. If you can find one on e-bay or somewhere, pick up a 4oz tank. I'm pretty sure these only came with the air adapter for using a bigger tank on the Brass Eagle Talon.

You can put them little 4oz tanks in your pocket and screw it on if you ever run outta air in the middle of a game. I get around 300 shots or so with it on my tippmann so they make great lil backup tanks.


Happy Birthday bro:D

no way man, woods ball is not exciting at all, speedball (wat u saw) is where all the fun is

im just going to see how many shots i can get out the 12, and then if it doesn last as long s i want it to, then im going to go get the 20. How many balls can the 12 ounce put through?

Yea they went bank rupt..

That field was horrible!!! It was soo short, the lighting was terrible, and the refs were unbeleiveable

The best place in NJ is E-jam in hackensack... Real cheap, the field has real turf, refs are great, and the kids there are really nice as well as the employees!

im best friends with one of the rexplexs owners son (they had 2 owners...)

yeah...he stole so much stuff from rexplex when they went bankrupt (turf, guns, soccer stuff, hockey stuff, skateboards etc)

it was awesome!!

so i got a mask, some turf and a skateboard

it was sweet lol, but yeah, it sucks they closed down cause i did everything for either free or for like 80% off

they closed b/c they had like 0 business during the weekdays (well until school ended at like 3:00pm)...

I use a 24 and a 9 oz and usually my 24 will last all day. I play frontman though so I usually don't shoot too much. I also play woodsball so I don't know how much I will shoot playing speedball.
