Uh I gotta a mask, old camos and I rent some crappy old "marker" [can't call it a gun someone will freak out!]
whatever "marker" that they have. Really like capture the flag better than speedball........I would post a pic but no one would care.

260? wtf.....
My field limit used to be 300, but they changed it to 290, the ref's are dicks about chrono'ing at the begginning of each day, and they do random spot checks all the time. I've been accused of shooting hot before, went over shooting 285>286>284. Ref's can actually tell when someone is shooting hot, and usually chorno the person after, sure enough they are. You just get a feel for things after ref'ing every weekend for ~6 hour days.

It's even better after getting the same person out a couple games in a row, and *accidently* bonus balling them. Then they try to get you on whatever they can.

My local fields have a speedball max velocity of 270. I play with 260 to stay safe. For non speedball games I usually shoot 270.

How fast [ft per second] the little ball is moving out of the barrel before it smacks you in the nuts. Remember kids, always wear a cup!

You don't need a cup! Pray for a bounce!

It's happened before...... and the color it turned wasn't natural

Remember, a paintball flying at 300FPS is about 204MPH.

Tomorrow I'm going on an all day paintball trip with my school's Outdoor club (to Skirmish in PA).

Next weekend my team is playing in a 3-man speedball tournament in Topgun in Jackson, NJ.

It was a proud moment. Give a rousing speech to your m8's, sounding like Patton. Then set the example by leading them into battle. I was flushing out the snipers that day.

It was also the last day that I wore my black ninja light-weigt Martial Arts workout pants playing paintball.

Either that or my balls are just oversized.
