That would be a very good upgrade. Another smart one would be a palmer's stab or expansion chamber. ------------- Real Men play Tuba [IMG]http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/1859/newsmall6xz.jpg"> PH33R TEH 1337 Dwarf! http://www.tippmann.com/forum/wwf77a/log_off_user.asp" rel="nofollow - DONT CLICK ME!!1 |

Don't be afraid to get hit, be agressive when you need to be, snap shoot (pop up shoot and get back down fast), don't stay in the same place for too long, and just play and have fun. The best thing is experience.

First tip, and I admit it has a lot to do with your screen name, DONT TRY TO BE A SNIPER! You will end up wasting months, even years of your paintball carrer trying to be a sniper. I am telling you now, it wont hapen. Paintball guns are far too inacurate and unless you have the flatline or appex all guns shoot the same range. Further more, ghillie suits, scopes, barrels with rifling or over 14 inches, and stocks are a waste of money. Now, tips. Teamwork is key, so is communication. Be sure to know the plan before hand and be flexable. Work with your team and you will win. Dont stay back, dont try and hide, you will be useless. Get in the action and play and play hard. Have fun out there! ------------- Real Men play Tuba [IMG]http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/1859/newsmall6xz.jpg"> PH33R TEH 1337 Dwarf! http://www.tippmann.com/forum/wwf77a/log_off_user.asp" rel="nofollow - DONT CLICK ME!!1 |

| From the old days in the infantry: Shoot-Move-Communicate. Staying in one place for too long makes you a target. Leaning out different sides of bunkers keeps the enemy from looking for the littlest of stuff to focus on. Speedball games are just that, speed. Communication is good and hand signals are always good so you don't queue where you are. Don't make them overly complicated. Snipers are overrated for the most part. I've seen battlefields with 100 snipers and 95 of them get killed before tagging their second target. Snipers are not out there to make a 1:1 kill ratio. |

let's not start another "snipers don't exist" "yes they do!" argument here. just don't try to be one. move up, (i'm assuming you play woodsball, mind) stay low, and shoot no more than 50 feet away. any farther, and your balls are garunteed to curve unless you have a flatline or apex barrel. -------------
