Hey Everybody, I think many of us have lost the point here! If you look at 98 nitro's profile, you'd see he is like 14 yrs old, with 5 posts and he simply asked a question. The question was how to make a ghillie suit, NOT who can flame the most! FACTS; Sniper is a loose term in Paintball anyway! It basically means to eleminate an enemy without being seen. NO MATTER WHAT THE RANGE! Ballistically paintballs suck......period. I love the game, but you are not going to get a 1/2 mile shot, as a USMC sniper may. Yes, I have a Ghillie suit. NO, I do not use it very often. My Dad's land was logged about 30 years ago, then it had cattle on it, so there are small trees and sapplings. A ghillie suit is pointless there as it will just get snagged on multiplier roses, black locus, and other hazards. It is also, pointess in Close Quarters Combat situations. Where I still use my Ghillie is at a friends parent's land, it has never been logged, large trees and little underbrush. It is effective enough that others complain when I use it (obviously it must work). I personally think the term SNIPER should be thought of as its Webster's Dictionary definition; "to shoot at people from a hidden position" , Especially when it comes to paintball!

no your obviously the "regulator" you can post when and wherever you want to, im just saying they shouldn't have posted in here, off topic, just to put someone down and disrespect them on thier idea, the guy wanted some help on his ghillie suit from some peeps that maybe knew a little more about it then he did, is that what he got? I guess some people just can't say anything without disrespecting soemoene else, unless of course thier talking about them. Matt TheOperators |

If you want to play that way, then technically I shouldnt have posted in here either. Right? If people were chastized for posting things in the threads that had nothing to do with the title, then there'd be no foruming at all. |

I never said i wear mine all the time, i play all forms of paintball, sniper included, even the occasional speedball, and it is pointless "in certain games". i originally posted here to help someone make thier ghillie suit and a couple of you came in just to put down, or disrespect someone becuase they don't play yer stlye or whatever, thats not why we are here, and you call me an idiot, listen chronzak, you don't even know me so you are in no place to make such a judgement, i state my name becuase there is more than 1 Operator, and im the only one with a computer with the internet so instead of makeing seperate names we just state our name at the end of the post so thier is no confusion, and we state our team becuase all of us are proud to be Operators, we train and practice hard everyweek to get to where we are, and strive to make if fun and safe for EVERYONE. The point of all this is, and it is what you are missing, is that if you didn't post here to help this guy make his ghillie suit, you shouldn't have posted here in the first place.

I agree with rustic, and if anyone wants to argue about whether there really is sniping in paintball, be my guest.
Ghille suits are pointless Also, anyone who states there name and group/team at the end of every thing they say is an idiot Edited by chronzak |

Let's break this down a bit shall we?
I don't want to get this thread locked. If you'd care to continue this, you can reach me via PM. If the guy wants to make a ghillie suit, go for it, but 9 out of 10 people that I know give up their endeavor after a few games. Most of older guys will agree with me on this one. I wish you both luck. |

Rustic what does yer post have to do with making ghillie suits?? I belive the thread was ""i need to know how to make a ghillie suit". What have you contributed to that other than another FLAME?? Jack! If you don't like sniping or ghillies why even click on this thread? or do you like to make arguments? "Kills" yes, I play MilSim(that means military simulation) that means we simulate our paintball as if the paintballs were real bullets, you get hit in the arm you can't use it, the leg the same, the head or chest you get "killed", or your out, most all "games" that involves shooting anything at someone else whether it be paintball squirt guns or a video game you are going for "kills", and paintball is NOT A CLOSE QUARTERS GAME all the time, yes it can be at times, in speedball or urban settings but in the "woods" there "are" long ranges between you and your opponent, and how can longe range shooting be "eliminated" if all paintball guns shoot the same distance??(exception to flatline which pretty much means you can "snipe" someone before they can actually reach you, ive done it son.)Its actually still being developed if anything, not eliminated. And i don't get owned awfully quick when i snipe, because i do it right, again if you "know what your doing" you "CAN" shoot from a position of concealment and not be seen with more than 1 shot, although it is against all sniper doctrine to shoot from the same spot twice, paintball has an exception. I say to you "quit whining like a girl" and open your eyes, sniping is a "real" thing in paintball, ive done it, ive seen it done, its proven. The only thing you were right about in your post was "its a game dude"......very good, and games are suppose to be fun and boy i have so much fun sniping people who have no clue as to even how to go about the art of it. Thanx. Matt TheOperators |

We have purchased a ghillie suit and made a few, if you have the time and patience you can make an awsome one for about 100$ cheaper, here is the best way IMO. You take and old BDU Camo jacket, turn it inside out, this way all of your pockets are now on the "inside", then take "elastic strips" and hot glue gun or sew them to the jacket(this is to put "natural" material on your ghillie) then you take multi-colored burlap(you can buy a bunch and dye it if need be) and cut them into 4-6 in strips, then hot glue gun the strips onto the jacket(be random with the colors and dont over do it) also do this with a "boonie-hat" for your bush hat. Now the next thing you have to do is "weather" your ghillie, this can be done easily with a wire brush, just comb the crap out of it until the burlap are mostly "stringy". I have had numerous successfull kills with such ghillie suits. And yes they hamper your movments somewhat, but a sniper shouldn't be moving much. and if your good and matched your ghillie with the terrain they are the ultimate in camofluage. You do have to practice alot to be good with one and you have to be able to kill with "one" shot, if you do that correctly you "will" stay concealed after you have fired. All movements need to be slow and deliberate. The only people who put these down are either the ones who don't know how to use a ghillie suit effectivly or they are one of the ones I "Sniped" in a game and they had no clue as to where it came from.

You really don't want a ghillie suit. Take my word for it. They hamper and quick movements you're going to have to make. Yes, you are going to HAVE to run Mr. Sniper. With paintball being as close quarters a game as it is, you'll find that the ghillie suit does very little to keep you concealed once you start shooting. They're hot as heck, heavy, hinder movements, and unless you're VERY good at it, and your suit matches the area that you're playing in EXACTLY, they don't do any good to camoflage you. Pick up a loose fitting pair of BDU's, a sturdy pair of boots, and you'll be in much better shape. Ghillies are all but worthless in paintball. |

Also some tips for sniping if you don't know. 1. Put on your suit and try to sneek up on birds. It's sort of stupid but birds have really good eye sight and if you can get with in 10 or 20 feet of them then you can defidently sneek up on a guy in the field. 2. If you get seen when sniping in the field don't run away. They'll just shot ya' right in the back and laugh. Get down as low as possible and crawl away about 50 feet. If it worked the idiots shooting at you before will shot at your old position. Whoes gonna' be laughing now. And that's about it. Thanx. |

Okay 1. Take a olive green flight suit or BDU's. 2. Take some netting preferebly 1/2 inch in the holes. 3. Glue or sew netting to the suit or BDU's. 4. Before you sew or glue anything think about it. Will you be in a standing position, a crouching position, or a prone position. I always liked the prone so i will do that. 5. Glue the netting to the back of the suit, on the back of the legs, and on the back of the arms. 6. Now take cloth or burlap about 1/2 inch wide and about 12 inch long. 6. Cut enough cloth or burlap for a arm or so. 7. start at the top of the back. 8. Tie the straps about 2 or 3 maybe even 4 in each loop. 9. Then work your way all the way down to the bottom of the back. 10. then start on the arms. On the `arms start from the soliders out to the wrists. 11. One done with the jacket part do the pants from top down. 12.Once done with the suit jacket and pants i would do a hat. 13. the hat will keep your head hidden when in prone and will add to the suit. 14. glue nettin on the top of the hat and the brim. (Get a olive bonnie hat). 15. Tie the strips of cloth from top to bottom and leave the a little bit shorter in the front so you can see. 16. and that's about it. |
