Paintball, Round 2
 

June 26th, Sunday...

Northside Sports Park...

We'll be going from Noon til 5, (or until we've had enough)

If you wish to go, let me know soon... The cost typically is $40 per person after all is said and done, but I'm going to see if they'll let me bring my own markers (paintballs)

If you have your own gun, or know someone who has one you can use, it usually saves you about $10...

I think Rosedale Mall would be a good place to meet... At the food court at 11 am... We'll leave by 11:30am...

Let me know if you're interested...

No deposit needed this time...

that sounds good
but my offer is still up I can get every one in to fsl rental and a bag of 500 for 30.00
cheaper if you have your own gun

Re: Paintball, Round 2
 

Well if we bring our own markers to this place, I can get em 1000 for $20

Gun rental is $10

Re: Paintball, Round 2
 

Is that the place we went to last time? If so you should consider Hinkley, because that place was faarrr too fucking small. If you can shoot at, let alone see, your opponent at the start of the game there is something wrong. The small field detracts from the stealth, menuever, and tactics that make the game so much fun.

I'm in either way, but for the love of god consider a larger field.

Re: Paintball, Round 2
 

my place is fsl
there is 2 kinds of paintball real (on speedball feilds) and woods ball
If you have ever seen x-ball witch is what my tam plays it is a 20 min straight games then 1/2 time and another 20min straight games. the game last for under a min.

Re: Paintball, Round 2
 

Yeah, sorry CVD, same place... It's cheap, and a lot of my friends are poor...


I too would like to play on a larger field, so when my friends have money someday, we can all play somewhere big... :)

Re: Paintball, Round 2
 

I dont think Hinckley is much more expensive at all. Rental and field fees are pretty much the same anywhere you go. Same with paint.
At that place every game is the exact same. You advance until you get to a bunker mid-field. Then you slug it out until one team wins because you cant move around. A lot of times the game goes to the team that shoots more paint.

Re: Paintball, Round 2
 

I just checked. Hinckley is actually cheaper to start. At your place it is $35 for field fees, gun rental, co2 and 200 rounds of paint. At the Combat Zone in Hinckley it is $27 for the exact same package. Paint is more expensive at Combat Zone, and will probably end up costing you $10-15 if you split a case with someone.

Over all, thats a difference of about $5. Also, play is from 9am to 4pm.

At my price, you're getting 2000 rounds for around $30, not 200
Unless you ment to put another zero on there... ;)

I'm buying paint at Wal-Mart, where it's $30 for a full case, not $65. Plus I get a discount. So $15 for mask, gun, and all day CO2, and then If you want some paint from Wal_mart, let me know...

Anyhoo... I made the reservation already... I like to use this place because most of the people I bring are beginners or fat and out of shape. Sometime when just the guys from the PD go, I'll invite some of you die hard paintballers...

Plus Hinkley is a bit farther up the ol' dusty trail than ramsey...

If you guys are super interested, I say you guys set up a paintball outting after this one up in Hinkley... I'd be down...

Re: Paintball, Round 2
 

PS. If you wish to come, and want some paint from Wal-Mart, PM me, and we'll arrange something...

Re: Paintball, Round 2
 

Doesn't that walmart paint break in the guns when you shoot it though? Most ranges won't even let you use that shit paint in their guns I thought. I would be down for going along. We used to play all the time and I kinda miss it.

CRAIG

Re: Paintball, Round 2
 

I havent really played for a few years now, but in my experience the cheap paint is junk. When I used to play a lot, I was poor, and I still bought the $60/case paint.

I think your rationale for going to this place is pretty weak, but you dont seem inclined to change your mind so thats all I will say there. As for the paint, I would buy a case and use it first, before you buy more, to see if it is any good.

Re: Paintball, Round 2
 

I say fuck going anywhere you ave to rent stuff. Get someone who has land you can play for free on. Have everyone bring their own shit and go all comando.

Re: Paintball, Round 2
 

Yeah but not everyone has a gun nor wants to buy one to play a few times here and there. Renting is cheap and you get to destroy someone elses land and shoot people for a few hours. Money well spent.

Re: Paintball, Round 2
 

Well I'll buy a small container of the cheap stuff, and try it out on a gun and see how it does... If it's trash like you say, then I guess I'll try to find something between that and the expensive stuff somewhere... I just thought I'd try to save the kids some cash...

I've already made reservations at the Ramsey location, so that's where we're going... We should have a decent crowd, round 12 or so...

Re: Paintball, Round 2
 

Bump.....

Is there any interest here??? I kinda need a general head count...

Re: Paintball, Round 2
 

One last bump...

This Sunday at 11 at the Rosedale mall if you don't know where it is...

Otherwise noon at Northside Sports Park off of 10/Armstrong in Ramsey...

Re: Paintball, Round 2
 

How many do you have?
