So...My kids dragged me into woodball. Well, woodball behind our house. They have A5's and because they didn't want Dad to have the same I wound up getting the Project Salvo. Trained in the military on AR's so the feel was right. That was about two weeks ago.
Now, I have already put a Cyclone feed on my PS. I am going by the local field/pro center this afternoon to get my e-grip....and am headed to a gunshow Sunday for some good iron sights and see-thru rail riser..... ....Not to mention bidding and winning a new Tippmann TPX.....or pickup up a BT-4 (really cheap) for my daughter to play in the woods with us.... Crap...I thought my real guns were addictive. Jay |

It only gets worse. One person really doesn't need as many markers as I have, but I can't help myself.
Of course, there are the justifications:

Hi, I'm Don, and I've got a problem.
I've got around 7 functioning markers, and well upwards of 15 projects. Many of them very rare. I've got a gun that cost me $1,110 stock and it's a pump pistol that shoots 10 round tubes and is run on 12g's. I just bought two more markers in as many days, and I'm paid in full for the new Tippmann SL-68 II that's coming in just about a month. I'm currently looking at Intimidators and Matrices. All in all, I've got more money tied up into paintball than my car is worth. And you think you have problems... Edited by DeTrevni - 27 September 2009 at 2:59am |

Yeah, I was all hot for an Apex or Flatline....till I used my son's and found out the downside. Accuracy suffers. I have a 20" sniper barrel I am playing with now...(I know..more than 16" is a waste) but I like the look of it on the PJ. Well...headed to the gunshow.... Jay

QFT. (He's got me beat; Only 11 functioning markers, three of which are slated for modifications, and two non-functional projects. Plus, being cheap, most of my "antiques" are of the less expensive variety) Edited Note: Upon reconsideration, I realized, embarrassingly enough, that I actually have no idea how many markers I have. (I do know I forgot to count at least one.) Edited by Mack - 27 September 2009 at 11:23am |

I once cleaned my room and found a LaSoya Promaster I completely forgot I had.

Snerk. I believe I have 7 functioning, one ancient Stingray I that hasnt even been cocked in years, a Sheridan JTX without a grip, and a couple other in-pieces guns.
Not to mention the Autococker probably has upwards of 50 hours of custom work in it. No telling on the spyder and carbine as well. I think the only untouched bone-stock gun I own is the 98 Platinum, Im not about to mess with a gun with no serial number (Mmmm pre-release) |

I'm off to a bad, I mean good start. LOL Paintball gun count is 7 between myself and son, and we've only been playing since July! Mostly older pumps we picked up cheap, but I got us each a brand new Custom 98 last month, and now it's a competition to see who can mod theirs the most.
