It may look real now... but once you add an oversized bubble to the top, you wont fool anyone.

Thanks!!! The gun itself wasnt too bad - you gotta remember some guys spend approx $1,000 on the gun alone! - mine was $338 with taxes....but then i gotta get the electric trigger and electric hopper....so it still needs about $200-300 more before its perfect, but i love it. definitely an awesome, but expensive hobby....

It is time consuming, my friends and i will play bush or in the arena for hours at a time...but a great way to get active on a sunday afternoon though! :)

The way I see it, if you are going to shoot someone, why do it with a ball full of paint? Why half-butt stuff, use a real bullet. That's what I do. Me and my friends... well, old friends, did that all the time. I was good, too good I think? :\

Madman? I wouldn't go to far as to say that. Maybe, man with anger problems and extreme liking for guns? Ya, that fits better.

Used to play a long time ago. A friend had a 5 acre junkyard filled with old cars, vans, buses and tons of other things to hide out and fight in. We even had a car with a hatchback that we tore the back off of so two guys could lay in back and shoot out when we drove around. Good times. Do you ever play outside in the dead of winter? Those paintballs really sting when you body, and the balls, are nearly frozen!

If you want to check out some extreme paintball gear, check out this video I just saw a couple hours ago.

Thanks!!! I really had to think about it before i bought it. I was originally buying the Spyder RS X, but then we got around to justifying the Delta....In the long run we will actually will be playing more woodsball than anything, so it makes sense, but thanks!!! i hope i like it and it is as good as the ratings are!!!!

I've played a few times, but im just getting into woodsball this year...so it should be interesting. I've only ever played arena, and ive had my fair share of painful shots, i.e; on the tip of the finger...lol

A bunch of my friends are I are going up north to a place called Tobermory, which is still relatively cold during the month of may, and we plan on playin a lot f woods ball :)

That video is crazy by the way :| i think i would have to sit out the round THAT thing would be around...hehe

Ahhh thats too bad....what happened?!
