    Posted: 10 October 2004 at 8:18pm
I was looking in a paintball magazine and I saw these weird paintballs that can be reused.  They dont have paint in them or anything they look like miniturature wiffle balls.  The description in the magazine said they were paintballs used for practicing shooting. NE way I was just wondering of anyone had seen or used these before and if they were worth buying.  Sorry if I sound crazy but I swear I saw these. Thanx

They generally are not great, but for target practice they are good because you dont waste money on paint.

Do NOT try and play with them though.

That would be kind of interesting to see these TBalls used in-game. Imagine someone trying to convince a ref they hit someone...

Vballs are velcro, well the softer part of velcro and stick to the opposite part of velcro.


Would be fun to grab a couple buddies and when no one is home for a couple days or the whole day just set up a infiltrate scenario in your house.  Just makesure to take down alll the breakable stuff.

I love those kinds of scenarios...we have an abandoned factory in our area that has been converted into different Attack/Defend sectors. This field also has a trailer park OBJ scenario. Way off topic, but still fun.

dont make the same mistake i did, TBALLS are a waist of money and dont help at all most of the time you end up losing them all or they call way off to left base and you can never hit your target. dont even think about buying tballs
