I want to get a cheap paintball that I will only use occasionally in our back woods when some friends come up or when I go places.
I was looking at Tippmann pro carbines on ebay but then I saw that spyder imagines were going cheap. From what I remember of my paintball days they were both decent guns but I can’t make up my mind about which one I should buy, the Imagine has the E-trigger with full auto which would be insane to try sometime, that and it has 14in. JJ barrel, but I don’t know how well it will be in the woods. The pro carbine would be more durable I would think, and more of a woods gun but it doesn’t have the E-trigger(which isn’t that big of a deal really). So what would you get? Oh does anybody know if they make a stock for either gun, preferably the spyder?
There both about the same price right now..

I want to buy a paintball gun for a special someone but I don’t know what is best. He has played a lot but he hasn’t owned a gun at least in the last few years… he had one when he was living at home when he was in high school. He is really good but hasn’t been able to play much lately… I’m looking for something on the cheaper side. Which guns would be the best for him?

Most Popular Paintball Games

May 1, 2008 · Filed Under games · Comment 

As paintball improved and became popular, many individuals tried their abilities at it; giving rise to the assortment and diversity of paintball tournaments and games.

Recreational or Capture the Flag

Played by two teams, where each team has a flag and the objective of both teams is to capture or seize the opponent’s flag and carry it to your team’s starting point. This is one way for your team to win and another way is by eliminating the opposing team entirely.

Each team has to defend their base and simultaneously dispatch team players to eliminate the opponent and capture their flag.

These games are usually played in the forest; bunkers and structures can be put up throughout the area.

Scenario Paintball

This is a paintball game with a theme set up behind it: there are an endless number of themes that can be created making the game feel and look very realistic.  There are a number of players; in many cases as many as a hundred are involved in each team.

Each team gets the theme (storyline) a day before the start of the game. There are usually two teams participating, having the “general” as a team’s leader.

Each player is given a role and they should work together as a team in order to carry out and win an assigned mission. Props in accordance with the theme are introduced and distributed throughout the field. There are questions asked in connection with the theme and points are awarded for correct answers.

These points are totaled at the conclusion of the game and the team having the most number of points wins.

Backyard

This can be played right at your own backyard, a friend’s empty property or at times any property but you must as you get permission first.  You gather your friends to form a group and then conceptualize your own game which typically is “capture the flag”.

Speedball

Also called “Center Flag”, the speedball field is designed with many huge bunkers; usually “inflatables” filled with air that are shaped similar to big snakes, soda cans, water tanks etc.

Here, a team can be composed of between three to ten players in a game. There is only one flag that is involved and it is located at the center of a field.  The two teams start at each end of the field and attempt to gain possession of the flag at the center and carry it to their bunker. The team that does this successfully wins.

Paintball can surely challenge the “soldier” in you.  Give it a shot!  Do you have any paintball games you want us to talk about?
