You're an idiot. Playing paintball with just ski goggles and no mouth/face protection is stupid at best. Please take your moronic suggestions somewhere else.
 
Also, wth do we keep bumping this thread?

if you are like me and like the style of the front grip but hate the cheap look and feel, you could go with the allen paintball rubber foregrip.
few places you can get it
and here you can see a few pics with it on

Ok, I am pretty aggrevated right now. I ordered remote line from academy and I put it on my tank and hooked up to my gun. It was shooting perfectly nothing wrong at all. I went to friends for a couple days and came home, looked at my gun... pulled trigger and it was out of Co2!!! >:0 I just got that tank filled and shot maybe 2 shots total out of it! ITS COMPLETLY EMPTY!! Seems like the hose just released all the air out of the tank.

^^^ what OPBN said and look into polishing the internals, it will help some with routine maintenance on your marker.
I was thinking about polishing internals...What else would i need beside a steel wool? And IDK about HPA because my local field uses them and when firing you can watch the air gauge go down.  I play once a month from 8 in the morning till 6 in the afternoon using co2. 1 20oz co2 last me most of the day. 

Sounds like a lack of maintenance by the local field.
I dont really like to play there... They have small field but nice shop xD

You can check c02 pressure with a gauge like this but I prefer to weigh c02 tanks to determine how full the tank is.

On the c02 tank in the picture you can barely see some red paint on the side of the tank which states the weight of the tank when it's empty.
