Hey,
My cousin is spamming my instant messenger with poo such as hes going to kick butt in paintball because hes either getting an autococker or angel. Hes been playing paintball for alittle less then a year and already thinks hes the best, no....lol....no. He needs more experience before getting to the point where he is even remotely close to "The Best" SO could you do me a favor and just state that getting a high end gun WILL NOT make you super good, and to become good you need skill, practice, and experience. Help will be appreciated. Thanks Jackal aka KevinG ------------- -Tippmann 98 Custom 14" J&J Ceramic Palmer Stab (Female-ASA) -Tippmann 98 Custom 12" Teardrop |

The gun doesn't define the player, his skill does.

Having a highend marker will improve your game, I dont care what yall say. I like that VF Tactical Autococker. If I had 600 to spend I would get that. -------------

before we play... we warm up with some target practice (call it stupid but this is what we do) we get into lines and shot each other from across the field, hes 50 feet away from me, and somehow ever shot finds it self on the ground 20 feet from me.... this kid need practice before getting a better gun and acting all cocky. ------------- -Tippmann 98 Custom 14" J&J Ceramic Palmer Stab (Female-ASA) -Tippmann 98 Custom 12" Teardrop |

well if it doesn't make it 50 feet then I must agree he needs a new gun also a gun is a preference some people actually PREFER a Brass Eagle over anything else very few and very stupid but they are real nonetheless ------------- <Death to overlarge sig, read the rules.> |

| here's some advise. get a blade or something and just light him up if you can. he'll look like a total fool. and then you're like "oh you're the best huh? well i just lit you up with a $20 gun from wal-mart!!!!! eat paint!!!!" that would be the best. you'd have to be pretty good though. |

Let him go find out for him self, every time I use to play me freinds, I would almost always win. They kept saying it was all in my A-5. (I love the gun but it's not) so I gave them my gun and used there brass eagle, and spyder. Guess what happend? I won again, and again, and again. It shut them up rely fast |

since when does a company give a sponserd player TWO guns??? many of the companys that sponser are stingy on what they give their players....and let him buy the angel...its more embarrasing to suck with a high end gun then a regular one. -------------
