Paintball Kit - All the gear at discount prices!

Buying your paintball kit from an online store can be hassle free and an affordable way to get all the basic gear you need. To play paintballing you'll need to get kitted out with lots of essential paintball stuff. A mask is vital, as paintball fields have strict safety rules and don't allow paintballers to take part in games unless they're wearing their masks. Hoppers and air tanks are also a necessary part of kit, required for your gun to fire properly. For new players, there are some good value paintball gun packages available, which include an entry level marker along with all the other gear you'll need.

A good place to pick up a decent marker at a discount price is from a paintball guns sale. Look for offers at online paintball stores. If you're considering buying a gun package, reliable entry level markers include the Piranha VTL G2 and the Kingman Spyder Victor. Remember, don't buy a cheap gun just because all the kit is included in the price. When looking at paintballer packages check out the hopper. In starter kits, they are usually gravity fed, but if your gun shoots faster than 11bps you'll need an electro hopper. Also, find out if the air tank is for CO2 or nitro.

When choosing a paint ball gun, check it works OK with different brands of paints. Some guns have a tendency to break cheaper paintballs. Ask other paintballers for their tips on the best deals. Look for a marker that doesn't need lots of upgrades to improve its performance, is light enough to carry but sturdy enough to stand up to the action on the field. Buying all your kit in one go can be the cheapest and easiest option, but make sure you're getting quality equipment. If you can't find a reliable gun in a package, it may be better to buy your paintball supplies separately. Although success at paint balling is to do with strategy and tactical skills, a reliable and accurate gun is crucial.
