What price range are you looking at? $40-$100? 100-200? 200+

Paintball guns come in all shapes and prices. Just a rough estimate would be nice.

Dude, go airsoft. I mean, I like paintballing more than airsoft but it's a pain to clean, the guns get screwed up and it costs much MUCH more.

For $100 from the right places, you can get a decent Spyder. Spyder's don't suck, Ion's are just better. :P

Spyders also look awsome, feast on these puppies:

I want to airsoft rather then paintballling. Airsofting looks more real IMO. Somepeople say it feels more real also. Anyone care to explain the pros and cons to Airsoft and Paintball?

Though paintballs do sting, the smaller size of an airsoft lets it nab you pretty good, even with protection. Still, both are fun for the sadistic sport that is a gunfight. Nothing beats overpowering a chubby kid in a paintball field, then shooting his feet when he tries to run.

i got a paintball gun and the box said ACCURATE! and when i got home, i tried to shoot it at the chair in my backyard, but it fell down before it went 5 feet... and broke it within the first week

i hate those asian fake toys that are not good, i needed new tennis balls, my dad was like.. no lemme get you some! and he got me un branded balls that barley bounce

Paintguns are like Rugby

They think Rugby is for real men.
I don't think Breaking a leg means your a man.

Paintball can get into your eye and your gone for.
