Unlike in my last topic i created my manners or attitude towards the people on this board or its rules, i will do my best to be on my best behavior

The following is what i plan to purchase soon, i am asking advice and suggestions from the Tippmann forum to help me alter anything if needed or even helpful for me.

Since i could not find most of the things that were appealing to me at other sites Tippmann's "Where To Buy" option suggested me to look, i have decided to go for PunisherPB. (http://www.punisherspb.com/)
------------------------------------------------------------
The following are the goggles/masks that have gotten my attention. I ask that you tell which of the following is the best and which others that are not listed do you recommend.

1. Dye Pro I3 Paintball Goggles - Black
http://www.punisherspb.com/dye-pro-i3-paintball-goggles-blac k.aspx

2. JT Headcase Goggle - Black
http://www.punisherspb.com/jt-headcase-goggle-black.aspx

3. JT USA Spectra Flex 8 Full Coverage Paintball Goggle - Grey
http://www.punisherspb.com/jt-usa-spectra-flex-8-full-covera ge-paintball-goggle-grey.aspx
------------------------------------------------------------
The following is clothing for the game itself that i consider purchasing, please as before comment if its a correct piece of clothing to purchase.

1. Dye 08 Core Meta Paintball Gloves - Black
http://www.punisherspb.com/dye-08-core-meta-paintball-gloves -black.aspx

2. Dye C8 Paintball Jersey - Grey
http://www.punisherspb.com/dye-c8-paintball-jersey-grey.aspx

3. Dye C8 Paintball Pants - Grey
http://www.punisherspb.com/dye-c8-paintball-pants-grey.aspx
------------------------------------------------------------
Now for the piece of equipment itself. The following is the paintball gun i plan to purchase as well as parts for it. You tell me if its any good and if their are any barrels or mods on the site used to upgrade this to be used as a stealth pant

1. US Army Alpha EGrip Tactical Paintball Gun - Black

http://www.punisherspb.com/us-army-alpha-egrip-tactical-pain tball-gun-black.aspx

2. Extreme Rage 200rd. Hopper - Black

http://www.punisherspb.com/extreme-rage-200rd-hopper-black.a spx

3. PMI Coiled Remote with Slide Check

http://www.punisherspb.com/pmi-coiled-remote-with-slide-chec k.aspx

4. Pure Energy 20oz Aluminum CO2 Tank

http://www.punisherspb.com/pure-energy-20oz-aluminum-co2-tan k.aspx

5. Dye 07 Tank Cover - Grey

http://www.punisherspb.com/dye-07-tank-cover-grey.aspx
------------------------------------------------------------
Now for the paints container. Here are the following look decent. As for holsters please recommend a few for the pods as i am having trouble deciding on which for the following pods. Please select from the site mentioned and used.

1. Dye Lock Lid Pods - Smoke

http://www.punisherspb.com/dye-lock-lid-pods-smoke.aspx

2. Dye Pod Bag

http://www.punisherspb.com/dye-pod-bag.aspx
------------------------------------------------------------
Paint is the most important thing to a gun. I haven't selected any because i have never paid attention to the paint used and as i need paint just for my gun for a woodsball playing.
From the following which is the better paint for the situation?
DraXxus or PMI/RPS?

If for DraXxus, which from Diablo Blaze or Diablo Midnight?
If for PMI/RPS, which from All Star, Stinger, Marbalizer, or Menace?

PMI/RPS:
http://www.punisherspb.com/pmi-rps_2038.aspx
DraXxus:
http://www.punisherspb.com/draxxus_2035.aspx
------------------------------------------------------------
As i will along with friends be walking towards the field or location for our game in the woods, is the Dye 08 Backpacker Backpack good enough to carry my gun and its main gear other than paint?

http://www.punisherspb.com/dye-08-backpacker-backpack.aspx
------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you for your time and i hope that from any comments and suggestions posted/listed i can finally look forward to a good day. If some stuff that are supposed to work together but dont match in my post please link me up with a direct link to something that is better or a match or even a must for paintball players. Be reminded that i plan on purchasing from PunisherPB. I would certainly accept links from their.

Also if i have any questions later on i will reply to your post in this topic.

PS: What shoes should i wear when i play woodsball?

Currently i have Steel Toe Shoes Not Boots. I have mobility but it is restricted due to the steel.

You really should consider an electric hopper if you're going with the e-gripped AB.

Get an electro hopper.  If you plan on getting a faster gun in the future you might want to get a Halo or something.  If you get a fast hopper I suggest getting one with adjustable force and/or speed for your current gun.

you dont really need the tank cover on co2. o and you have a woodsball gun with speedball looking clothes. if your going with a milsim looking gun why not go all out and get digital camo jacket,pants and a vest with pod holders and a place for the c02 with remote line

QFT.  Depending upon the cover, some of them can slow the heat transfer between the CO2 in the tank and the exterior environment.  This results in less evaporated CO2 (gas) being available for firing and can result in marker malfunctions.

As new as you seem to be to the sport, I suggest you check out this post.

As far as paint goes get a Python kit for your stock barrel and you should be able to match paint even with the front guard on your gun. 

Can you adjust where the front shroud sits?

I would suggest a mask with some sort of switchable lens system, so you can swap lenses based on where you're playing and weather conditions.

Nothing is worse for paintball than having the sun glaring in your eyes as you're trying to pick out your target.  Something like the Proto Switch. 

If you're playing mainly woodsball, I would get some camo too, like Paintball430785 suggested, they'll work for speedball as well, actually, anything you can move in will work for speedball.

We're not really in the "hand-feeding" business here.  Most of us expect you to figure out what you want based on the combined advice of the forum members then go out and locate the actual merchandise yourself.  I can't say that I have a lot of sympathy for those who are unwilling/unable to do so.
