I don't like it because it requires people to be honest when they get hit and people tend not to be honest. With paintball you see if they're hit

YES! THEY'RE WAY BETTER AT IT THAN GUYS! I went paintballing a couple days ago and there was this girl (the only girl) who I dare say was the best player out of the twelve people who were playing. Every single one of us were getting absolutely chewed out by her. Including me and her own DAD WHO WAS A PROFESSIONAL PAINTBALLER FOR TWO YEARS! AND IT'S ONLY HER SECOND TIME PLAYING! I SWEAR!

Well now.. I don't know of anyone who's actually captured a snipe.  I do recall going on a snipe hunt when I was a kid though.  We had a bag.. and we searched the woods.. calling "snipe, snipe, snipe"\nI never caught one, unfortunately.

paintball is a awesome sport/way to release energy..im 41 been into paintball for about 4 years play with men and women of all ages here in Alaska glad to hear you enjoy it and don't let anyone change your mind keep on painting!!!! it will keep you young at heart and limber of body. yes unfortunately just like with so many other "new" sports / things in life,it only takes a few people to give a great thing a bad name.  if played responsibly paintball is very educational and hopefully good stories will erase the bad publicity that a few people,out of the many who play,have given paintball

Oh yeah i love it. I have been shooting since i was about 6 years old, i have a trap in my back yard for a .22 with low velocity rounds so al you hear is the firing pin and the the smack as it hits the target. I also use a .45 auto, and a 3030 winchester.

Well lets see it's the best sport ever!!!!!!! Lots of awesome riders and it's super fun to do. I love Motocross, Riding is exhilarating and thrilling makes you feel the ultimate Adrenalin rush. Broke my scaphoid(wrist) in a slide out corner, but was worth it. Freedom... as it is a bike, and you can go super fast as well as jumping these machines to unbelievable heights. I've try ed all different types of bikes for ex. Honda 80cc,200,250,Kawasaki 100,and the latest bike I've ridden is Yamaha 450F. This bike is way too big for me but it is still thrilling to try out.My Old bike was a Honda 200xr and it was a great learning bike. But I like to jump and you need better suspension. So I'm in the midst of buying a new one. For now I ride My mans Honda 250cr for fun. This bike is too hairy for me , as I'm not that big of a body type to ride such a beast. If you ever get the chance to go to a show you should check it out you wont be disappointed. You can always rent bikes as well, but make sure you wear all the protective gear.Enjoy and let loose:).

Airsoft guns are cosmetic copies of actual weapons, which fire a 6mm plastic bb at low airgun velocities of 150 to 300 or so feet per second, depending on the model. They are priced between twenty dollars  for a low-end plastic spring gun, To  a thousand dollars or more for a full size, full auto, LEGAL M-60 machinegun!\n....How can you buy a LEGAL MACHINEGUN through the mail?\nBecause an airsoft machine gun (which runs on battery power or is co2 operated) IS NOT A FIREARM, and is not regulated by the BATFE!  \nEntry level  full auto airsoft guns can be had for fifty bucks or so. \nA nice metal bodied, metal geared M-16 can be had for less than three hundred, that, except for it's blaze orange painted muzzle, (mandated by federal law for safety reasons), would be hard to tell from the real thing even when you are holding it!\nDifferent models from numerous companies in Japan, Taiwan, and China produce literally hundreds of models, each an identical twin of a real historical or modern weapon. They have been around in the orient since the mid 1970's, but are just becoming popular here in the USA.\nBesides collectors, There are clubs that play paintball type games with airsoft guns, and they are also used by police and military for training purposes, because they so closely resemble the real deal in weight, appearance, feel, and function.\n\nThey ain't your grandaddys BBgun - that's for sure!

I would just order direct from the company  http://www.airsoft.com/  or try E-Bay http://search.ebay.com/airsoft-m4a1-electric_W0QQfkrZ1QQfnuZ1\nAirsoft started out strictly for law enforcement & military training, then realized they could make more money if they sold it similar to "paint ball" there are groups all over the country that play airsoft, so yeah, most of their products are good. also note the one you are looking at, the BOYI - M4A1 R.I.S appears to be discontinued, so if something went wrong you may have a hard time getting it fixed

Airsoft is much more fun than paintball.  I've played both, so I know.  Airsoft is much more realistic than paintball.  The guns actually look like real guns!

Yes, Its a great sport, that all ages can play.\n\nAge and skill do not necessarily go hand in hand. \n\nIt's also easy to play with very little equipment.\n\nI've been playing for 23 years. And I still love it!!

I do play paintball.  i have been playing for a few years now.  the closts field to me is Hit and Run Paintball in Mansfield, TX  although i live in arlington.  i have a tippmann 98 custom.  i chose it because it was the best gun on the market and personally i still think it is.  because you can literally put it through hell and it still works like new.  also it has a great range of 150 feet of accuracy  without losing much velocity.  the third and final reason i cohes it is because you can customize it enough to compete with those 1000 dollar cockers and still beat them without spending 500 dollars (after you get all the upgrades you want on it you still wont be paying 1000 including the kit price).  i reccommend it to anyone who is new becasue of those three reasons

Well I was Marine Corps infantry during the first offensive into Fallujah. (Around the time they hung US bodies from the bridges. I can tel you what our numbers were from about 750 in our battalion. 19 KIA (dead). In my company we had 4 KIA. Injuries are much higher though. I was a machinegunner, and just in my section of 18 guys, 6 of us were injured seriously. I took shrapnel 3 inches into the right side of my brain. One lost an arm, One paralized neck down, One hip blown apart, One face reconstructed, One bullet to the chest. Lt is right, if you have any fear, the infantry is not the place. Go admin.  But if you can hack infantry, it is the best thing you will ever do. No extreme sport can give you that kind of..... well I dont know what to call it, cause it aint a game. It will make a man of you though.

I have bought a few airsoft guns over hobbytron.com and I have gotten everything I ordered in brand new condition in a few weeks after they were ordered. I however do not know if airsplat.com is reliable or safe because I have never ordered from them.
