Ok I don't understand how these things could be the least bit helpful, other than saving money. I mean, ok so you shoot them, then what? Pick all 500+ of them up? No thanks. So basically the only way you can use them is if you have some sort of a net, or something else that can stop them from going astray. I just don't see why people would want to bother buying them...  -------------

Yeah at pbgear.com they have them. They're supposed to be .68 calibre paintballs with just rubber I think. How do you tell if the oponent is out? There would be no paint?

They're for people who want to train without waisting paint. Simple.

I totally understand that, but you will spend more time picking them up than you will using them... -------------

shoot targets that are in front of a wall.. not so bad to pick up. better yet if you're not in grass. i use reballs on pavement and the target is large and not too hard. they usually fall not too far from the target. -------------

| it would take time... but if you're inside... in a pretty closed space it wouldn't be too bad |

I'm sure velcro does fine things for your internals. |

velcro doesn't hurt your internals .. it's just horribly inaccurate -------------

They should put a little bit of metal in them so you can a magnet over them. ------------- http://www.freewebs.com/outlawspaintball/index.htm - Outlaws *Sponsors* http://www.abrika.ca - Abrika |

I want reballs. I'm tired calibrating my gun and wasting paint at the same time. Now, I will only have to calibrate and save some money. Air refills aren't too much, but sometimes my jerkface paintball shop owners jip me and don't fill it all the way. ------------- My sig is stupid. |

They actually look pretty useful. Just have a slightly angled floor with that thing in it like the video youm0nt has.
