um, one learn how to type. two, you really dont need a scope in speedball, and especially not a 50 dollar offset rail. you really cant see in paintball with a scope cuz the balls curve and drop.....

The only good use for a scope in paintball is for spotting purposes in large woodball/scenario games. Even then, you're better off with something thats not mounted on the gun.

If you really want a sight mounted on your gun, buy an offset rail and a red dot sight. Although there is no point in this because you can just use the ironsights and save some money.

And no offence but I wouldn't exactly call tehganster a noob

Hey bt-4 sorry I haven't been around to give you some suggestions.
What I've learned is you need 2 things.

1) A raised sight rail. They obviously help with mask clearance.

2) A mask with a softer bottom shield. I use a JT ProFlex and it works amazing since it is flexible.

The riser rails you have posted will work fine. Just find something that compliments your current setup and doesn't look out of place.
Best of luck.
Ride it like you stole it...

Well, clearly it will because it raises the sight up so you wont have to have your head so low (which prevents your mask from hiting), so yeah.

i hope to god you aren't seriously going to use a scope in speedball....unless you're playing some new kind of speedball where you have to stay behind your designated bunker....
lest we forget:

scopes = tunnel vision
tunnel vision = getting flanked
getting flanked = ZOMG I'M DED!!!1!!!111
