Basically, have all new barrels be threaded on the outside at the last couple inches or so, so one could screw on a barrel plug. Sililar to a silencer. It would be the safest thing next to unscrewing the air tank (Or being responsible). I wouldnt like it, you wouldnt like it, but the saftey world would LOVE it. -------------

not really couple inches more like half an inch
it would work great but you would have to make the end a bit thicker, to account for the threading so it doesn't hit the ball and break or lose accuracy

can you say fugly? And altough it is smart, i dont see what makes it all that better than a barrel condom or standard plug. They both do the job well now. Dont fix what isnt broken. -------------

not really on barrel plugs they are shot out of gun way too easy especially if you have a fully auto or a sensitive trigger ------------- <just say no to unnecessarily sexualized sigs> |

Barrel plugs dont work all the time. And barrel socks only work if you are not retarded. I never use anything other than my saftey, and it was just an idea. Does it make you feel special posting barrel socks or something? Do you want a cookie? -------------

the place I play at says If you forget to put on the barrel condom you get 2 warnings. the 3rd you get kicked out for the day, no refund. I really understand. It could blind or kill someone. ------------- 1 paintball gun package=$150 1 case of paint=$50 air & entry fee=$15 lighting up newbies all day long= Priceless |

| I think people would hate carrying a thick piece of metal in their pocket compared to a sock. And people wouldn't put them on because it would be such a hassle. |
