you dont need to go online, hop on over to your local paintball store,
(or some **edited**'s Sporting Goods Have them) and they have good starter
kits if you are just looking to try out the game for around 80 -100
dollars ------------- Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo |

Yes, you can head on over to Walmart and buy yourself a Tippmann Model 98 starter pack. If not, I got my Tippmann 98 Custom from http://www.xpaintball.com - www.xpaintball.com
Good luck, have fun. ------------- -Wild |

The nice thing about going on-line is that places like http://www.xtremez.com/paintball/ - http://www.xtremez.com/paintball/ or http://www3.888paintball.com/ - http://www3.888paintball.com/ allow you to upgrade player packs, so you can get 20oz co2 instead of 9oz, or thermal instead of nonthermal masks. A lot of the masks that come in player packs are very low end. Your local shop might be a good choice, but I'd look on-line first so you can see what the rest of the world charges. Your shop should be charging more because they have overhead on-line stores don't face. Shops also have a real person you can talk to and markers you can see, touch, and feel. Some shops even let you fire, or at least dry fire their markers. It is nice to support your local shop, but you should not be paying manufacturer's list prices! I would recommend a 98c or A5 player pack with up grades like I mentioned above. Buy a good squeegee right away as well! ------------- Xs.

Any site that has the 98c power pack is great. It should be around $180. It includes everything you need. ------------- http://img204.imageshack.us/my.php?image=260991706090alb8rs.jpg">

Dont get an entire paintball starter set (the mask sucks), jus get the marker w/tank package only...its cheaper in price and go to your local pbshop and ask the guys to help you pick out a good mask that best suits you. ------------- Do not steal....the government hates competition!

Don't buy the M98 pack. Wal-mart bought up all the leftover stock from a Tippmann warehouse. Go for a 98 Custom pack or a A-5 power pack (98C is better for beginners). The mask is good enough, otherwise the proshop guys will have you spend either $65 or $75 bucks (Proto Switch/ Dye Invision). ------------- A-5 E-grip Chipley Custom Carbon Graphite 16" Evil Adapter(Spyder) 32 Deg New '03 XChamber Remote Line Gun Sling Sniper f/x Stock LPK 68/4500 HPA R-5 CP Reg JCS Duel Trigger |

I tried Google... nothing yet... did Paintball News have pictures in their most recent issue?... maybe not... is the Pro Custom one of the new versions of the A5? ------------- Xs.

no, the procustom is tippmans way of putting an electronic trigger and
a new bolt on it, calling it their step toward speedball, and grasping
at the players moving on into lower end guns like the ion to answer your other question, the new A-5 is supposedly going to be called "the stealth" and from what i have heard (even though it was just a rumor that got put in a couple of weekly columns) that the only difference will be that it is camo. ------------- Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo |

The Custom Pro was supposed to be released March 7th, but delays with the owner's manual have pushed the release date back to March 23rd.
On our site, we have BYOP (Build Your Own Package). If you buy a gun, a mask and at least one other item, you automatically get a percentage discount on your entire order.
