    Got it. Glossy colors.

    No, when you try and glue the helmet after it's been painted the glue doesn't stick to the helmet itself. It sticks to the paint which doesn't adhere very well.

  • @BarryWraps
    @BarryWraps 11 лет назад

    its easy, just take the weapon apart and spray each piece individually. and depending on what arena you play on most, if its sand, then tan, if its indoor, and they use wood, kinda lighter brown, if its in a forest green, etc

  • @DangerClose105
    @DangerClose105 11 лет назад

    bike helmets (skate ones) not the aerodynamic ones are used sometimes too so that would work. im sure iv seen training videos of people using that helmet style. mainly when fast-roping out of helicopters or rappelling

      @bensloan7971 8 лет назад

      A good gun is about $150 helmet $60 ammo $20 for 30,000rounds grenade are not all that necessary (depending on realistic games or not) your kit (Tac gear) depending on your preferences about $100. Boot or footwear is important however get the good stuff it will be worth it (your feet will like you if you do)
