[@bash_full_auto6405]

Wow i can’t believe this videos original audio got a copy rite strike i am so sad youtube ruins good content like this

[@HandicapPro]

i was just about to comment the same thing, the OG song made the video and then the fact we don’t even get to hear people shooting their markers or even the host speaking in the beginning sucks majorly.
i’m tryna put people on to paintballing to this day, this was my go to vid. RIP RUclips

[@yuhget108]

If only they had big fields like this in south Florida

[@silentsparkyt1788]

[@tones9710]

[@trevordavid3289]

I will

[@trevordavid3289]

Idk if I should use a mech Or a electronic when I go

[@SirEpsidufus]

+Trevor David how much money do you have to blow on paint lol, that'll help you decide.
I play magfed and pump, I fired about a case playing nearly all day Saturday and Sunday and the castle game Friday. I was fine, and those are obviously mech

[@truitons]

the best part is at 3:07 .. the speedball part ahahah badass

[@Hc4697]

[@SirEpsidufus]

[@MrKillroy26]

My friends went last year and they're goning to go this year. Planning on going next year when i have more free time. Looks sick as fuck.

[@davidkenway4862]

Was the scene at 2:27 staged? Because if it wasn’t that is the coolest thing I’ve seen in a while. Imagine there being so much smoke it literally surrounds and encases you

[@parkwaydrive59x]

[@paintballhaven9223]

[@foxsdenpaintball283]

Nucepup Crazy any gun is good but personally I use a azodin blitz 3 but that's my personal choice ansgear.com

[@deadmo101]

Nucepup Crazy dye m2

[@wx9038]

for starter Invert mini is great. few part therefore easy to maintain and lightweight for long day gaming.

[@General_Klytus]

[@kingnoscoper2000]

[@EaglesStandProud]

[@CramcrumBrewbringer]

[@imperialwarphotographer4346]

[@607_rider5]

[@607_rider5]

[@trevordavid3289]

I'm gonna check them out

[@607_rider5]

+Trevor David I got a whole bunch of paintball videos on my channel

[@vote4pedro617]

At 1:13 he is running a nerf gun

[@samn5362]

Would I want a full auto gun or a semi auto gun

[@samn5362]

So I need to get a full auto gun or can i use a Tippmann tipx

[@poicolleshiguredesu2629]

for the event I'd assume you could use auto bc most events are like that i.e. living legends. otherwise semi works fine.

[@gizzinlite]

Nucepup Crazy u could use whatever gun you want

[@General_Klytus]

I've shot full auto at Ion for 10 years now!

[@subparmonkey9186]

Ur logo looks like sketchers

[@thomasf.6885]

CHEESE EM.

[@General_Klytus]

How many other people noticed all the guys clearly shot out on the video with paint all over their masks and still shooting??? Cheaters all over this video!

[@davidkenway4862]

LEADER a lot of that paint is probably from old hits they didn’t bother wiping off before going back out
