Okay I know this is not a posting with a picture, well there is a
picture but it is not a gun, I found these listings on Ebay Canada, the
seller is listing them under Sporting Goods / paintball / Goggles and
masks and calling them Trendy DG Paintballing Glasses. Maybe it's just
me but I have seen new players showing up to the field trying to wear
construction safety goggles to play with, is this listing not a
possible recipe for disaster when some kid orders these to play in the
back woods with his friends no knowing any better? http://cgi.ebay.ca/TRENDY-DG-PAINTBALLING-SUNGLASSES-REG-69-NEW-brown_W0QQitemZ110003738668QQihZ001QQcategoryZ16050QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem - http://cgi.ebay.ca/TRENDY-DG-PAINTBALLING-SUNGLASSES-REG-69- NEW-brown_W0QQitemZ110003738668QQihZ001QQcategoryZ16050QQrdZ 1QQcmdZViewItem ------------- Don't bring a speed ball gun to a woods ball fight |

I didn't see anywhere on that site that says rated for field play. I think you misinterpreted the message that is purely a marketing strategy. ...and yes this doesn't belong here... ------------- Ride it like you stole it... |
