Its spelled "infra red", you can only use that at night, not during the day and if you can find one less than $1000.00 lemme know

Infra-red is only good at night. I've tried playing a night game with them and its pretty fun but it does cost money. Night scopes go for about $100 for a generation one to $10,000 for the newest generation 4's. Though I think those only really sell to military and stuff like that. Most cops only have as good as $200 gen. 2's.

An IR scope could also be a thermal one. It would sense temperature differences between living objects and the background. They could be used during the day. Very expensive but you would be able to detect even the best camoflouged sniper. There is a product called a gamefinder that hunters use to sense animals from pretty good distances.

Ya, IR can be used during the day but they are best at night (at least the ones I've used). It can be hard to find a good one worth useing tho. If your playing night, just use starlight. Or a basic nightscope. The cheepest ones run about $100 and you don't get much more than out lines and minor detail. But if you have about $8,000 to waste, you can get one with laser tecnology that sees in perfect darkness!!!!

Ir scopes, and scopes altogether on paintball guns, don`t work. Stick to old iron sights, and if you want better, get a laser dot sight. for night games, just duct tape a flashlight to your gun.
