I've always been interested in paintball but never had the time or money to do it. But anyway, I am getting into the sport and I need opinions on which products I should buy to get myself started. Everything looks so good and useful but it is easy to be mislead. Thank you.
Horray for today and **edited** tomorrow.

well, do u have a gun yet?, if you dont, you should get a
tippmann or spyder. but if you havent played much, then go to
feilds and just rent and play with there own equipment, and just
play paintball, until you are ready to buy your own gun. but if
you want to buy a gun now, i would recomend a tippmann 98
custom, or a spyder victor, or somthing like that. hope this helps

get a 98c its a great gun, very reliable, sturdy, and if you ever really get serious then you can trick it out for say 500$ and compete with pretty much anything out there.
The most important part of a gun is the player behind it.

Exactly.  Either that or a Phantom/ACI Maverick...  Pump is way more fun than speed...
