WalMart has some decent brands, but I will go for a paintball shop, where I know the paint isnt old. I have friends that the only thing they buy is WalMart paint. They claim to have no issues with it. I have on the other hand had issues with it, the few times I did buy from them. Maybe they are doing better now, I know it has been awhile.

My thing is this, I try to support my local paintball shop, instead of Wally World who buys most of their goods from China. I try to buy most of my stuff/equipment through the field where I play. I buy from them and they take good care of me. Getting me what I need, and giving me good prices. WalMart just wants to put the little guy out of buisness. So I buy from them as a last resort.

I just bought a case of Big Ball from Walmart yesterday.  2 out of the 4 bags had broken balls.  Not just one or two, but like 20.

I use Game Face Red Scorch and never had one ball break ( in my gun) Just look at what your buying, if the box is dust covered chances are it's old. Open up the case before you buy it and make sure none were broke during the shipment.

I support my local proshop..., when i play there. I have buy all my equipment there except paint. (when we play there we have to buy paint b/c of FPO) My local Walmart carries zap paint and i few others that i forget. surprisingly, the flatline works fine with zap paint.

I love blue streak, especially when the guys on the opposite team are using it. If you are wearing dark clothing and get hit with a blue streak ball you can't even see the hit, it just leaves a wet spot.

Just make sure you open the boxes or buckets before you leave the store... their stock gets the crap kicked out it, and sometimes sits too long... look for flat spots and broken paint.

I get Zap Paintballs at walmart, and I have never broken one. 
And they don't taste bad like other paintballs do. 
I ate one becuase I was curioius, LOL
30 dolars for 2000 painballs seems good, especialy if they dont break in ur gun!

again, that depends on who runs your walmart. the one i go to frowns upon it, but as long as you put it back properly or buy it, they don't mind too much.
