Paintball and Gun Gear

Over the weekend I was able to get sometime at the paintball courses out here in Thailand. The courses are actually just jungle with some forts and miscellaneous vehicles for reference points. Paintball is a huge hobby for military guys and a great way to hone your military skills. Most bases offer paintball courses, and of course you can always set up your own in your backyard. Today well list out where to get the latest paintball gear online.

Ultimate Paintball Gun Store, obvious by its name, carries a large selection of hot paintball manufactures such as: Tippmann, Spyder, Smart Parts, Dye, Draxxus. The list doesn’t stop there so you can easily compare prices, check out the latest styles, and research extreme paintball gear to find which is best for you.

Here is a short overview of the guns that I personally like:

Tippmann A-5

The Tippmann A-5 is synonomous with speed. It is available in three finishes: Black Steel, Silver Nickel, and RealTree Camoflauge. I would go with the camoflauge – take em out in style. What utilizes it patented Cyclone Feed System which links the feeder sprocket to the air system. This unique feature allows you release a barrage of balls faster than you will be able to think about what your are even aiming at. With the ability to completely strip and reassemble the A-5, is ideal for military guys since you guys are trained to do the same to various guns. This process can be done in 60 secs, but I am sure you guys could do it in less – especially the Marines out there.

The speed is also very impressive with multiple shooting settings. I feel sorry for any one who is targeted by this gun. With a light trigger you can fire precisely. It is a balanced gun that weights just over 2 pounds. Finally, the style of the gun says it all. A very eye catching piece that will will intimate the other team to say the least.
