Never take your mask off while in the field and always put on a barrel cover when your off the field
These are just rules my guy
Malstake I still do once in 100 times. Most of those times I realised the missing of barrel cover when entering safe zone.
@@tommytuomaala9087 my friends barrel bag slid off in the safe zone and he ended up shooting himself
Tommy Tuomaala First thing I do when I get shot or finish the game is turn off my gun and pull the trigger to confirm it’s off in case I do forget to sock it.
MrMalicious same
The Biggest thing that annoyed me was when rentals would see that I have a lot of paint (at to them), and ask if they could borrow some repeatedly. I don't have a problem with it if it is a one-time thing and its a little. But these kids were asking for full 160 round pods and anyone that has balled on a budget, every ball counts. It is my BIGGEST annoyance
The plus side of playing pump is tossing them a 10rnd tube was never a big deal lol.
Just would be like "make'em count bro!" Lol
Can you do a top 10 worst things to buy
Paint grandes
Probably can’t do that without pissing off companys and owners of said things
Here’s 1 NEVER BUY A USED MASK
Dont buy anything tactical they are heavy and slow and are straight trash
DO NOT BUY CHEAP MASKS. the LEAST I would recommend is a JT proflex.
Don't put paint that's on the ground in your marker
Dear all Rental players ^^^^this ^^^^^ also don't take your mask off during playing for every thing that is holy thank you for coming to my TED talk
I did this for years at futureballs indoor field lol. Never ever paid for paint.
Wait people do that? I dont play paintball often but I'm curious about the oil in tank. No om not going to do it but what dose someone mean by boom boom?
molerattex I heard oil in the tank CAN be fatal. I heard it shoots it off the gun lol.
... why.
Oil in the air tank.... boom, boom.😂
Lol
😂
Please tell the people WHY they shouldn't put oil on fill-nipples!
It's not just "bad", it can IGNITE and forcefully destroy the HP bottle!
You're basically building a bomb by letting oil into your tank.
it has almost lead to people get killed.
OK, that was going to be my question,.... I've only got a CO2 Paintball pistol for plinking, as I'm into airguns, but I have paitballed before, and fancy taking it up, hence I'm watching lots of instructional videos, ... anyway, back to the point, with airguns, it's a bad idea to put oil down into the piston, as you get 'dieselling', and the oil igniting when the pressure increases. This can be bad for several reasons, largely dirt, but also, (I'm in the UK) it can push your rifle over the legal power limit, but practically, it's not consistent, so makes your rifle less accurate. This can happen in paintball markers too?
I know it's bad and we shouldn't do it but I wanna see one go off from oil in the tank just to show new players
@@engineeredlifeform This is an issue with the high-pressure air tanks rather than the markers themselves. Paintball markers by and large don't work like piston-based airguns. The pressure is highest in the tank (4500 psi, 310 bar) and then continuously decreases as it moves through the marker until it reaches the backside of the ball at 50-125 psi and then expands to atmospheric pressure as the ball leaves the barrel.
The difference in operating principle doesn't remove the danger though, just relocates it and makes it much more severe. Since the pressure is so high in the tank, the concentration of oxygen is much higher than in the normal atmosphere (14.7 psi, 1 bar). That means that things which would normally not burn well, such as lubricating oil, will burn very well and very fast. The tanks heat up when filled quickly which could ignite the oil and cause the air tank to explode. If you are holding the air tank or standing near it when it explodes it could severely injure or kill you.
There are pictures and discussion of an incident on PBN: www.pbnation.com/showthread.php?t=2325446
Yes, teach kids that they can make a bomb and detonate it at a paintball field.
7:16 so true! It’s really important to take apart the paintball gun and clean it, but it’s even more important to put it back together the right way. Also, I will say I’m a beginner to the paintball life and I’m so glad I am watching this video.
I'm just getting into paintball and this video is really going to help so thank you for making it.
Regarding your third point, your experience is greater than mine. But in the real steel world they discuss if leaving magazines loaded with rounds is bad for the springs in your magazines.
The conclusion I've seen from my research is that, magazines don't wear out from having a spring compressed for a long period of time. Rather, constant actuation of the spring is what fatigues it.
That said, I wouldn't take the chance. I actually remove the bolt and striker from my 468 between weekends of play.
Idk about that. I been to some training seminars about shooting and if you keep a magazine compressed in real steel mags, the magazine spring WILL lose some of it's spring. Due to memory shape in metal itll take awhile but it is possible to lose come of the spring. Pistol mags especially.
@@ObtuseOcelot
That only happens if the shooting material has the ability to creep (AKA "cold flow"). Steel creeps very little or not at all. If the springs were made properly, stored at or around room temperature and haven't yielded, they should be fine either relaxed or loaded. However, I imagine that paintball equipment isn't usually made to the same standards as firearms, so your mileage may vary.
Gun springs and paintball springs are held to different standards. Most modern firearms are made with a "Duty" mentality if you will, and are are held to a high standard of quality so springs don't wear out like this. In paintball there is no such thing as a "Duty" gun or mentality so the springs are just made to be "good enough" and will wear out over time.
Actually, leaving spring steel compressed doesn't weakin the spring. Springs weaken from use, not being in a constant state. Compressed or not, doesnt really matter. This is a big debate in the firearms community in regards to magazine springs.
Yup and us department of defense released a study report I think 2 years ago about mag springs they took I think 100 30 rnd rifles mags filled them in I think the 80's or 90's and let them sit I think they said onley like 3 mags had issues and one of them was the rnd was bad not the mag
The one thing i will say is when you play while you are off the field keep your finger off the trigger. I see it all the time they have their finger on the trigger and they bump their hand and the marker goes off. Please have trigger control especially with projectiles that go 280 FPS.
My Tips to Survive as Newbie/Things Not to Do
1.) *BEFORE* you even get on the field, practice the motion of reloading and replacing your pod back in your waist/pod/ammo holder. Almost every game I've ever played, I just have to hunker down and wait until I see a newbie do the tell tale "oh shit I'm out of ammo" crouch and fumble with their pod. Then I casually jog past and blast them while they try to reload. Learn to reload quickly while moving!
2.) Bad Communication: The best teams in the world are the ones that talk to each other throughout the entire game. How many enemies down, where the rest are, where they're moving to, when they're moving, etc. Most new players just hide and don't talk to anyone and wind up getting plastered to hell and back being the last man standing.
3.) Movement is Life: In games I play where it's team deathmatch and there's an abundance of new players, I'll usually be able to (if I'm lucky) pull of a quad kill or higher because the noobs are huddled together behind the largest piece of cover in the back of the map. Paintball is very similar to chess in that moving pieces/players strategically generally proves successful.
4.) The Buddy System: unless it's a speed ball course, traveling with at least one partner to have your back is highly advantageous. You never know when you'll walk into an enemy squad 10 people deep and need to quick retreat. Suppressing and moving is life out there and being unable to pin down an enemy for your team to advance will just result in a stalemate until someone else comes along.
5.) (I know this will get hate, but whatever) *Keep shooting until they call their out* I used to be the player who would, out of the kindness of my heart shoot once and assume everyone would raise their gun and walk off like a responsible player. Years later, I've changed after seeing the better part of a few hundred players either wipe off the single paint ball or just run off to another part of the field and not call their out. Overshooting be damned, until the gun is raised keep on firing on the opposing player until they leave the field; it'll allow everyone to realize you're not the type of person who will quit until they're eliminated and call their outs sooner.
Remove the batteries from your equipment before you put it away; and protect the terminals of those batteries (9 volt) to prevent battery leakage. And always bring extra batteries to the field with you. Fields usually have a hefty mark-up.
Good point. Batteries are expensive 😂
2:17 --> Don't use paper towels this will scratch your lens. Only use cloth or microfiber.
Krautla w͟h͟ ͟y ?͟
@@walker3446 combination of dirt, dust, and the cellulose in the paper towels and a few other mineral ingredients (cheap filler) in the paper that are used during production. Acts like a fine polish - really small scratches. You will notice them if you play against the sun or sideways. Destroyed my correction glasses like that a few years ago.
a nice old cotton shirt works great
I know people who have been playing for years who still spray down their thermal lenses with water then complain about their mask fogging. Its ridiculous
I spray mirrored lenses, do you have a better solution? Paper towels peels of the decorative foil.
I like to carry two microfiber towels for cleaning lenses. The first is to clean off paint and mud and the second is to wipe away smudges. You can also spray a little bit of lens cleaner on the microfiber (not directly on the lens) if you’re having trouble removing smudges
@@ashravenpb i used Micro fibers as well but I clean more paint than i have Micro fiber.
I’ve been playing paintball for 25 years, long before on/off valves on ASAs were even a thing, and I still regularly use basic ASAs. I’ve chewed up plenty of o-rings while unscrewing tanks from pressurized guns, but never once have I ever destroyed or worn down the threads on a tank or ASA. Is this a new paintball myth?
I've had the opposite happen.
The bottle unscrewed and destroyed my reg to bottle threads lol.
Asa threads was still fine though.
On/off asa just makes the whole process easier and safer. I've never had my bottles unscrew on my with a on/off asa since it just spins off easy.
DON'T pick up paintballs from the ground on the field and shoot people...
mike vessio w͟h͟ ͟y ?͟
Dirty old paintballs are warped and covered in dirt and then you shove that into your marker and scratch your internals and burst in your loader/marker and you gotta clean it. Just never a good idea
Haha. Viable on Woods all field but on turf commonly practice even on tournaments.
@@tommytuomaala9087 yea but we are used to identifying what is a usable ball and what isnt
Honestly for new players especially if your getting in paint ball or want to get in paintball. Don’t be afraid to ask questions. If your in your staging area and are having a problem or are curious about something 9/10 Times some one will help you especially if you have questions. I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone in a staging area that didn’t want talk about what gear they have or about there marker.
If you ever need to remove the coating on a ninja tank with the colored coating you can. With the help of chipping it off and sanding it down you can have a matte grey ghost. It hasn’t blown up yet it’s all good
Thank you! This is great
You should do a video showing the proper way to remove your tank for any guns that dont have a on off ASA.
Do u just continue to dry fire?
Can you guys make a video for MAGFED players like do’s and don’t
Most important DONT is not to play magfed ;) I enjoy playing against bounce balls but I don't like to shoot them. Do no if planet mag can handle e-gun paint but the paint to brake and tag is most essential thing for me in paintball. I do play airsoft occasionally but prefer paintball, as it is much more of an sport rather than hiking.
Graffiti and Evil break easily enough and work just fine in most magfed guns.
You said that taking the tank off while the marker is still pressurized is bad for your threads, but you didn't mention how to properly remove tanks from markers without an on/off ASA. Twist & shoot in a safe area.
they should add a screw that will slowly release the pressure
I wish the last was true for old Tippmann Pro/Carbine. I have the only video on another channel and I was trying to figure it out on the run
the last part he said i had to do a lot of research on how to install a redline board on my mini gs before i did it. soo i watch the same video over and over and over again.
some fields have air stations that really dont allow you to charge tank with marker on it because wip is so short
Another tip for new players:
When unscrewing screws, NEVER break the tension of it using the ball-end of your allen wrench. The chances of you snapping the ball-end of that wrench is high, and if you do the only way you're getting that screw out is with a drill.
I don't use paper on mirrored dual lenses why I wash them off, paint and water finds themselves in the cracks and dissolves the glue and foams in between. After 2 years the sandwich is starting to peel off, i'll change it immediately when fogging becomes an issue. I lube before each game and wipe of after the games. In winter time I do the opposite. Store lubed and wipe off while playing, grease "freezes".
It would be great if you had some visuals of these mistakes.
mainly the oil in the hpa tank
bring a headband to absorb the sweat. it will help in a huge way to reduce sweat as well as keep the sweat out of your eyes.
Do you know were I can find ball detent for a jt excelorator 5.0. Just had mine worked in and runs great first shot broke the detent.
I remember on my fist ever game of paintball it was an attack/defend round and I was in a bunker with my dad and some other teammate. My dad asked “what do they do if we get shot at?” I responded with “human shield” and pointed at our other teammate
Re : Single pane lenses, unless you have multiple spares for double glazed, learn how to play with single pane too, then you can afford to keep more spares and stay in the game.
The best quick n easy between game anti fog for single pane is washing up liquid in water at the right mix to suit your climate. It also works fine on multi pane, but less need to drench the inner surface. Always carry a Litre spray head bottle of this. [Also great if all you have to squegee/swab your barrel with a quick turn around till you can get back in]
If you're playing with single pane lens, ALWAYS drench inside before you go out, let it coat the inside and DO NOT wipe off [if you over do it, then wipe and redo, you should get a good vision field even if you sweat like a rapist.
Calotherm is ideal, but pricey AF.
I'm 12 years a Tourney Ultimate. And 12 Years at Semi Pro Play, mostly Woodland, League and Scenario. You don't have to take any of my advice, but I WILL take the piss if you don't and come off the field second.
The best way to improve your game play is do some Marshalling or Judging. The second best way to improve your game is by Kit you can, but they can't afford.
The third best way to improve your game is to KNOW the specific Tourney rules [see 'best way']. I've seen too many excellent players penalised out due to their team mates not knowing the Tourney specific rules.
Fourthly ...
It's as important to count the opposition onto the field [Low count, advise you very discreetly tell a Marshal you counted, they can't confirm after a certain point but . I have a memorable game from the 'bad' end, where, because one of us had counted them on short, there could not be one hidden to contend with at end game with seconds to go. KNOWING made the win. But how many teams do the count 100% ? One day, such attention to detail will land you a game you had doubts over, which, if you lost only to find they were a man short, is like kicking in your own teeth.
Always, always, always ... Cover the basics before 'Game On'.
Happy final bit now, I once kept 8 from 10 man at bay for a draw, even though for the last 8 minutes of 10, I had NO AMMO left. Not one of them identified the sound of no ammo, I played totally like I was packing a full set of pots and even had a one way LOUDLY with a team mate who I didn't have, telling him how if he sat tight we'd slaughter any coming down our gulley. I'm LOUD when I choose ... nobody came down our gulley and I defended the massacre into a draw for around 5 mins with NO AMMO.
Their biggest failure was communication, with which I'd have been quickly tested and then had to walk.
I know with greengas airsoft u r supposed have a bit of air in the mag when u store it. What about paintball? Should u empty the tank completely?
Great to know thx
Synthetic grease! Not petroleum based grease in the Tank Regulators!
Its too difficult to unwind the bottle of my kp3. I need an on off reg extender thats bleeds out leftover air from the marker.
Yeah I have a few tips don't touch your regulator or your pressure release valve unless you're sure and you know what you're doing trust me I messed up I was messing around with my prv and over tightened it causing the seal to get messed up
I'm so sad my field is closed until probably May. 😕
Salinas E I feel u man
Well now it’s somewhat close to may
How do you make sure you have the right regulator for your gun so you do not over pressurize your paintball marker
I just got into paintball. I have a question. For HPA tanks can you fill them up at home with one of those red air compressors that you plug into the wall or do you have to take it to a shop?
Yeah that air compressor should work totally fine
Deff clean and lube your marker at the end of a day playing, dont overtighten screws, and never pick up paint from the ground and put it into your marker, it happens all the time
After purchasing a new-to-me etha. I then proceeded to bugger the solenoid 😂 lesson learned long ago
7” aggressor Handguard when is it back in stock
How do you take apart an JT ER2 I can't find anything on it
5 don'ts for caring for your gear.
1. Don't neglect your tank regulators. They have orings and moving parts as well you should service them by cleaning and relubing once a year.
2. Don't neglect you marker regs those should be service about every 6 months.
3. Don't let forget to clean anything your paint touches. Pods, your marker breach, barrels, inside of your loader, and paint caddy/pod caddy/ball hualer whatever you call it if you have one.
4. Don't leave paint in packed pods. It will dimple the paint and render it borderline useless
5. Don't leave your paint in an area that isn't temperature controlled, a shed/garage/trunk of your car/attic or so on. Keep it in a closet or the like.
I always recommend eyeglass cleaner for lenses, most are designed to work with both glass and plastic lenses.
Not for the inner lens, alcool in the cleaner is eating up slowly the antifog coating
@@baokhanglacasse8778 never had an issue with that with a double pain lense.
@@iamcondescending I did start having some... It could be because it's a old lens, I have no idea on how long it stayed in it's packaging but the place I bought it did not even know they had one lol
@@baokhanglacasse8778 that sound like more an issue of poor storage and age than, the cleaner eating off the coating.
Also: I've never sprayed cleaner directly on the inside of the lense, since it's never as dirty as the outside.
Oof, I'm guilty for #2
I’ve never went paint balling without hearing someone telling the ref there o ring broke
I have always loved you content but I tried to guess your first tip on this video- like what would it be- And- yeah masks! and I dont take credit for it- it is honestly because I was at the pro shop for my first day at the feild- and I am not a huge player... but the sales guy is telling me about this sweet deal on the dual pane lense for this great mask and I am like yeah aight... I am sure I need all this crap- then the guy in full on cammo with the aux tank and side arm says- "dude honestly he is not BSing you the last thing you want is a bad mask- the better lenses fog up less and getting both the clear and tinted give you options depending on the time of day- its your money but before you even consider anything else I would focus on the mask" and that was coming from the guy who looked like he came out of ghost-busters- at that point I was like, well clearly if he went all in on that stuff and he it telling me the MASK is where I should be making my investments there has to be something to this- Best decision ever. I still have baseline Spyder marker with an upgraded barrel- The mask is my favorite thing :) I love everything about this channel and still want to get more into it and go all in
i use the discontinued Ariakon sim-4
Which is the best field to start on
Forests and open fields with man made cover are the most fun
at my refill station the tube is to wide so I have to take it off my marker
So the PB mag springs are not like real gun mag springs? Many guys store real gun mags with live ammo all the time.
PROJECT ANUBIS yea I think it’s just the lower quality pb mags
I always clean my marker after each use
When tournament oracticing efter practice relube. But once now and then lube before and after.
How many times of taking off the pressurized tank is to much
Probably when you start to notice that you are having trouble putting the tank back on or when the threads are getting flat.
I'm new to paintball but I sure as hell am not stupid enough to introduce oil into a highly pressurized tank
I just wanna play
Something I always see noobs doing is messing with their tank because it's leaking normally due to the fact that the tanks o-ring is no good because they like to take they're tanks on and off an aren't careful. I think that it's a necessity if you're just starting or have you even been playing for a while you should always carry a spare O-ring set for your tank.
I thought CO2 in an electronic marker would have made the list. Guess not exactly a widespread phenomenon
Paintballpro18, my little brothers friend had an electric gun and he was using a CO2 tank and he ruined his gun.
Most likely because properly regulated co2 can be used in anything safely
@@trashtronics1700 I don't think properly regulated CO2 will save your solenoid in electronic markers...
At this point, C02 should just stop being used altogether. Their really aren't many advantages to using C02.
are clorox wipes okay to clean duel pane masks okay to clean with
I hate playing with trigger happy rental noobs and they don't know when to stop shooting. I got my hand up walking off and they trying to get easy shots off you. Drives me maddd.
Where can I find How 2 be Paintball Kong? Don't just want to desire 2 ok if possible 2 find will watch great tips
Yes don’t put any silicone,oil,or anything flammable in your fill nipple it’s ok to put some in the asa
This video idea is really good, but it would be so much more informative if you would show us on pictures or equipment. Presumeably your target audience is beginners, and if so you would make so much more sense and be more understandable
Yeah i saw this one dude that bought an i5 not knowing that it is important and dropped it in dirt and my dad thought he knew how important it was but no he said oh its important? I thought it was for looks. He got clapped in 2 v 5.
Think I accidentally got a little oil in my tank, from lubing my high pressure pump. Any one know how much oil it takes before there’s really a problem?
And this is saved so i dont fail when i first get into paintball
First time I went to paintball I got two head shots, keep in mind that me, my dad, and brother was the only people there. Also, don't shoot if the person is within 10 feet. Really within 15 feet.
''why would he pull the trigger in a safe zone''
Is it his own Marker ?
I fixed Markers from Stirlings, through Tippmans, through Phantoms, through to Mags and Cockers. How YOU like your trigger is important.
My question is, was his marker bunged or bagged ? [In a 'safe zone'].
Any non beginner letting one off in the safe areas is self inflicting humiliation. Barrel bungs would not exist if players were perfect. As an Ultimate, I've had to pull plenty of arm bands from those who eliminated themselves in play, I've also had to Site expel players for some shocking Marker safety violations too.
Really simple questions I have probably 50-70 balls left over will they be ok in my hopper or should I put them in a bag and I’m shooting roughly 1200 a day how often should I clean my marker?
Off topic when you got to the field what do you put your gear in? Backpack?
I put my gear in a planet eclipse duffel bag after I give everything a quick clean at the field
While I agree with not leaving markers cocked or magazines wound up I don't agree with the reasoning.
Springs don't just magically lose their "springyness" over time, you need lots of heat and stress as well.
I think it's more of a case of bad vs good practice. If you leave you magazine wound for months at a time, then there is a likeliness that you're going to come back after 6 months forget that you've already wound your magazine try to wind it and damage it. If you leave your marker cocked it's likely that you've also left paint in it and possibly the air tank on as well, making it more likely that when you pull it out you're going to forget that it's loaded and accidentally shoot someone.
It's just better practice to de-energize your equipment for storage. (With the exception of your air tank: always leave air in there so the seals remain shut and moisture can't get in.)
I'm getting ready to buy a t15 should I get the v2 mags or stay with the v1 mags
V2 all the way. Waaaay better.

Where I'm from no where will let you use your own paintball Gun unless you book a private session which has to have more than 15people so I couldn't really get in to it as Its expensive to keep renting their equipment I don't even know 15people it sucks 😭
I have a spyder fenix
How do you like your spyder Fenix? Have you run into any issues? I am thinking about getting a Fenix soon.
I’m trying to find a Fenix, but they’re out of stock, do you know where to find one?
The spring in my AR magazine works after being loaded for months why would a mag fed paintball marker be different?
different standards. paintball has unfortunately way lower standards
I was trying to clean off paint splatter ran water over them to rinse and now both masks have a fog that won’t come out so I’m pretty sure I ruined 2 perfectly fine masks 🎭 but at least I know why now and hopefully won’t do it again
I accidentally leave my tmc cocked for a week, do you think that could have damage it ?
One week? No. 6 months...yeah that's bad...
wait can someone explain the second one more detailed i have listened to it a lot and still dont get it
so he is saying when you take off your tank it will wear down the threding but I have been doing it for years and mine is working perfect but I also recommend dont take it off after every game
When a paintball explodes does it stain your clothes?
For point #2 what would you recommend when you need to remove the tank so it’s not pressurized? Thinking of getting my first paintball gun soon
Dry fire the gun repeatedly while you unscrew it. Or use an on-off ASA if you have one.
I didn’t know Kittle played paintball
I would say... Getting into paintball is 1 of the best known sports you and your whole family can enjoy! including your buddies. But if you're actually getting serious about it ? G0 the extra mile purchasing Good equipment, Good paintballs etc. Like at least spend a few extra dollars more getting a Good marker. Spend a few bucks more buying better paintballs, research; take your time, do your homework. Because there's nothing worse than being out in the field for the first time, and all your gear isnt up to par, or starts falling apart. That's a big reason why a lot of young people decide to just throw in the towel early on in this sport. You wanna have a really great time and awesome experience? Before you buy... research, ask questions, making wise decisions will enhance your game and you will Not be disappointed.
Noobie question coming up.....
Does the term Marker = gun?
And how long has this been in vouge
I first played paint ball 17 years ago and the paintball gun was not called the Marker......... anyone.. anyone?
The term marker comes from the routes of how the sport of paintball got off the ground. Originally, "markers" were designed with no accuracy or high performance in mind because they were used to mark cattle with paint. The farmers realized they were a lot more fun to shoot at each other and VIOLA!
The term marker and gun are basically one and the same in the grand scheme of paintball, but if you want to be historically correct, it should be called a marker.
Is paintball big or popular in canada?
Still Growing every day!
can you make another video of this with pictures i dont understand some of it .,.hehehe
Another fact if you’re interested in beginning to play paintball, don’t get a heavy gun like the tippmann us arm alpha elite or tippmann cronus , the less it weight and the more comfortable it is the better performance,
2 don’t just learn how you play also learn how other people plays learn their strategy if they like to stay in a bunker and cover his teammates or if he likes to run.
Rule number one: Dont bonk the host with a sledge hammer
Rule number two: Dont bonk your teamates with a sleadge hammer
Rule number three: Always bonk the enemies with a paintball
Remove your batteries before storing items... last thing you want is battery corrosion (long term storage).
Don't use old paint.
Don't use a dryer for your paintball clothing, especially anything that has rubber or plastic on it.
Whats a manual
This post was made by G5 spec-r gang
What’s a marker guys?
marker is another terminology for your gun
@@akaberto4874 Thank you brother also I have another question so I have a tipman A-5 that I had since 5th grade and now I’m in 10th grade I haven’t used it once Cuz I only went paintballing once. So long story short can I use and scope on the Tipman A-5 (im a noob so idk much)
I gave my brother a marker for his birthday... well it was an 1000€ Marker and he dosn't even clean it after the Game...
So now I habe to care about it.
Wow
Wow, have you shown him how to clean it? If you have then that’s pretty messed up where you have to clean it instead of him
I got shot in my right ball
Would be better if you showed the things causeeee like I’m so fkn lost 😂
well i just found out why my marker doesn't work lol
I don't submerge my lenses in water, I just wash them in the shower. Is that still okay?
No lol. Take 1 guess why it isnt okay.
Things don’t do as a beginner, buy an autococker
really? because i was told to leave it cocked as to not harm the detents.
The field I work at always has us decock the markers (98s/FT12s/A5s) before putting them in storage. Kinda sucks that you cant easily leave the spring and detent uncompressed at the same time
Detents are cheaper than the spring
Who's ever used the warranty on their paintball gun?
