What is a "vl speed hopper loader"? I'm thinkin it's a pod, because VL doesn't make a hopper named that. I don't think, anyway. If it's a pod, all you need to buy is one of these: http://froogle.google.com/froogle?hl=en&q=paintball%20harness&btnG=Google+Search&sa=N&tab=wf - http://froogle.google.com/froogle?hl=en&q=paintball%20ha rness&btnG=Google+Search&sa=N&tab=wf Some of those require a belt, so pay attention to what you are looking at. If you have any questions or comments, post em up. |

To answer your already posted questions and comments: A 98-custom/custom pro are basically the same with different options. Also the custom pro has an adapter for a fully automatic feature, unlike the 98c (98custom). I wouldnt recommend the starting kit that tippmann offers Get a 20oz tank. Its about 20 bucks, and is about 5 bucks everytime you refill it. It will shoot about 750-1000 paintballs. Also get a mask. THERMAL IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. It is an extra 20 bucks, but paintball can be more frusturating than fun without it. The thermal mask doesnt like to fog at all, which is the opposite of a regular one. If you have a couple loaders, thats perfect, all you need is the harness for some, which are like 15 bucks. But its important This is all you need to start. Play a game or two, and decide if you want to purchase some upgrades. I recommend starting out with no chest protector as well, because the chest is one of the best places to get hit anyways. Its good to know if you can take the pain before you spend hundreds of dollars. ------------- DjB |
