i know its not the season but wouldn't it be fun to make 2 forts out of snow like a snowball fight in the winter cept use paintball guns you could make it more interesting if you added more forts+ more people the only bad thing is cold balls that dont break but thats okay if its just you and yer friend im sure you'll be honest ------------- Save a life* Wear a cup* |

I think that would be cool. I play paintball in the winter, and it doesn't hurt to get shot any more than summer. As long as they don't bury the balls in the snow. But if it was cold out for a while the bunkers will stay up a while and you can have a feild without wooden bunkers rotting. ------------- Tippmann A-5 Flatline Barrel JT Flex 7 Mask E Grip 2 20 oz.

Me too. If you play paintball in the middle of July or August, it's like playing in a sauna. Mask fog is insane. Paintball is alot more fun in the winter, because it's only 40-50 degrees. ------------- I don't have a sig anymore

| Ohhh man, bring back good memorys. running (trying to) through 3 feet deep snow when you can see maybe 10 feet ahead of you. I also used a nice camo suit in it, making it alot harder for me to be seen. This is in the lake effect capital of the world... Oswego New York. Its not uncommon to sometimes get 3-5 days off of school at a time due to the huge amounts of snow that cannot be simply plowed away because the banks are higher than the plow trucks themselves. Now were back to good old summer, easier to play.... except for the poison ivy and other dangerous things. But all in all it was great to play in the winter, I reccomend it. If I remmember correctly, somebody made there SL-68 all white with a little black, that would work perfect for snow. |

It's awesome playing in the winter, deep snow hinders your movement, and if you don't watch it it can be easy for others to follow your tracks. Only problem I have is if you use CO2 it's murder for consistancy, and each time we played in the winter at least one gun froze over, luckily my A-5 never did ------------- =Guns don't kill people, the government does= C-I Paintball Demo Expert/Support Gunner/Tech Guy |

Man you guys don't even know how much snow we get up here in the Upper Penisulla of Michigan. One year we got 5 feet, and National Guard had to come bury people out. NO JOKE. But we HAVE TO drive snowmobiles around to get around in the winter. But yeah paintball in the winter is cool, it sux when your using Co2 because you don't get as many shots out of it. It's fun though ------------- A-5 E-Grip Flatline/and soon to come Freak barrel. |

I heard comp air is really good in the winter because you get good consistancy because it's not liquid like Co2. ------------- TIPPMANN 98 CUSTOM 14" Progressive barrel 32* Black gel grips BT-16 Double trigger Pen Spring Mod X-core Expansion Chamber Vertical Adapter |

i live in wisconsin so we get lots o snow. everytime we go
paintballing in the winter, each team splits into 2 groups and we get
30 min to construct our own forts in an area. From there we
switch off: one time one team charges anothers base and tries to take
it over and the next time the other team does it to the other
base. It is so fun. I recommend it for winter play or your
own made up game for that matter during the winter season ------------- Peter: Excuse me, is your refrigerator running? Because if it is, it probably runs like you - very homosexually. |
