Really cool guns, i wish my dad took me out when i was that young. 

I like your son's gun more than yours though, just fits better.

Question though:  Does it ever payoff to have your pistol?  Ive never used one or anything, but it just seems like a waste of weight that you dont seen since ive never seen anyone not using there primary weapon.

Maybe im wrong?  Just sayin, not trying to start anything... curious.

But in the best dad fight, your up there.

Yes actually the pistol does come in handy.  I got it in a trade a couple of weeks ago to some kid who needed paint.  I was a little reluctant at first for the same reason (not sure if i'd use it), but by the end of the day in our local big game, I had ran out of air and rather leave my son in there by himself, I thought I would give it a try.  I actually eliminated someone and helped him out before I got took out myself.  So in short if you can get one for a good deal (like a case of paint), then yes its worth it, but otherwise I wouldn't bother.

Never would have expected that, and it sounds really cool.  A bit too much to bother with for me though, got enough to worry about :-P.

Last thing... Your harness looks really comfortable, even with your remote.  Any chance you can tell me the brand you got? It looks REALLY nice.  I got one like that, but it keeps slipping off me even while it feels tight.  And do you use HPA like you son?

Nice guns. It's cool that you and your son play together. I've often tried to get my dad to play, but he never wants to.

i was playing like a week ago and was in the woods. i got out and was sitting with the refs. there was a guy that was wearing full redz speedball stuff and was shooting a qgp superstock. his gun jammed as he was running up and he pulled a pistol out of the back of his pod pack. it was kinda funny.

Nice guns. i like the a5 e's handguard. are you ever getting yours camoed?

The vest is the dagger vest from spec ops.  It is a little costly, but its worth the money.  The HPA on my sons gun is actully mine.  We just put it on for the pic.  He uses CO2 for now.  And yes I plan on gettin it camoed in the future, i'm just worried about the stiffi barrel for now.

I love the stiffi. Its great.  And gravy, who are you to judge how old someone needs to be to deserve a gun. Besides the fact that he's my son and deserves nothin but the best, the kids probably better than you are.

I... Wish .. My dad... Was like you...

Seriously though, I think it's a really good way to bond. I'm only 13 and me and my dad went once, he liked it but he just never has enough time to do it.. I wish he had more time.

Cool guns too

I remember when i got my 98 my dad saw an A5 stealth in a magazine and wanted one ever since.

After that, he ebayed an A5 and now goes pb'ing with me sometimes.

This is to everyone: What should I get? Stiffi one piece or JnJ edge kit?

Question, where did you find that black tubing that's covering the hoses on your guns? Or is that a hose itself?

Go with the stiffi.  I have no regrets.  And the black covering is simple wire covering that you can get at any local auto store.
