i believe we have enough EVO-NY guys for our own field already, so everyone else is icing. Unless we want to set up a NJFBOA paintball event. BTW, there is a 3 story castle to play in/around.
Just google Skirmish, PA and their website should be first up.

I think you have to use field paint. the Skirmish website has all the rules.

or all the EVO's, this is my 1st outing with them so I'm in the same boat as you not really knowing anyone.

[bad64chevelle]

ahh, ok, I got a case of paint a month ago that I wanna use up, and cant afford to go to skirmish just yet. Ill use the $$ and get the tanks checked and go next time. Do you guys play any woods ball cause I got some of the best places around my area set up, and ready for whenever we want to go out there. Let me know. We also have the OK from the local PD's to play on those properties as long as we keep the area clean and no one does any stupid stuff. Best of all, its free, and BYOP! Ill post up for anyone who wants to come out and maybe we can get a huge game going. On the average ill have about 15 or so ppl, so more would be awesome! Later

I'm just getting into paintball, last time I played I was 15, I'm 27 now. I do have a bit of an Airsoft arsenal. Do you play any of that? or would it be cool if we played that in your area?(we use biodegradeable BB's but the guns look real) Can you reccomend a good starter gun?

[bad64chevelle]

Well, I have airsoft pistols, but they dont shoot far, and havent gotten into it really, but it depends on how much money youre looking to spend on a PB gun. I have my tippmann M98 and love it, im keeping that, but am selling my autococker which is a better gun because i kinda need the money right now. It all depends on what you plan on doing. If youre lookin to buy a marker let me know and i can head you in the right direction and to some of the better places to buy them.

cool thanks man! BTW, if you wanna get a little airsoft on, I got a GBB G18C, Gbb 1911, a spring SUper 9 sniper rifle at about 300fps, and a GBB desert eagle at about 400fps(plus some little plink around guns)...i use them all to shoot jOn every chance I get.

[bad64chevelle]

hell yeah man im always up for something new, let me know I have a place down by me that we can get alot of the stuff to use and what not, but let me know. I have the pistols like i said, they dont shoot far, or fast, but i just think they arent that good. Whats a good gun to play airsoft with?

Tokyo Marui is like the SONY of airsoft, you get good to excelent, but never crap. Western Arms is like the BOSE of pistols, very $$$, very quality. KSC/KWA are good as well.
shortyusa.com
is decent, and just a quick trip to delaware
airsplat.com
good customer service
redwolfairsoft.com
is where i do all my home work, excellent information site, but they won't ship to us unless you pay by international $$$ order.

[robj]

awesome im waiting to hear back from the gf.. on if she can go or not.

Just so you guys know skirmish wont let you use your own paint.. thats how they make their money so they are pretty anal about it. and paint there is really expensive.. but if we all buy in a group it will be a TON cheaper.. over i think like 12 cases u get it to like 80 a case or somthing like that ... 1 case alone is 100 after 5 or 10 i think it drops to 90 or somthng like that like


I got me an Impact Angel IR3 :) I used to play on a team when i was in college... but i havnt played woodball in forever ! it would be fun !

I went to a place in PA a long time ago with one of my friends that just passed (RIP) ... first and only time ill ever go... some kid decided it would be cool to sneak up behind me and shoot me in the only place that wasnt covered with protection; the back of my neck

He got shot a few times afterwards out of anger...

hey sikbyrd, are you and your friends going to D-day at Skirmish as well? if so, i'll see you there :wink:

can't that weekend. It's Tunerfest down in Wildwood, gonna be my first import show, and 2 of my friends b-days are that week. Truth be told, I'm a musclecar guy, but the import scene get's hotter chicks(jOn, racheal IS coming that w/e), so we figured it'd be a good party scene for b-days.

there are some NOICE blondes, but personally, I like brunettes

[skorpion317]

my team is doing some warm-ups before D-day....one guy has like 13 acres of woods on his property to play in. it'll be interesting, since we have to bring one of the team members up to speed (he's only played like once before). if you want to check out the team site, go here:

www.freewebs.com/sturmgewehre

"Sturmgewehre" is German for "storm rifles." German is a badass language...so you can guess what team we'll be joining for D-Day :wink:

[bad64chevelle]

I got the pics I promised this morning. The pics are of my Autococker, and my Tippmann M98. The Autococker I bought with some of the mods done to it, and just added a few things, however the Tippmann is my favorite of the two only because I have had it since day one, and know the gun inside out. Its got some mods done to it, including a 14" barrell, a bolt amongst some other things. The Tippmann has my own custom paintjob on it, even though it got scratched bad one day and I had to redo it, and it didnt turn out half as good as the first one. The pics are not great quality, but you can get an idea. Later!

[skorpion317]

the paintjob looks good on the 98! you don't see too many old-school M98's around these days.

i only own one gun, my 98 Custom. it's a great gun - it has accuracy, distance, and good looks :D it intimidates a lot of people when they first see it. it's even scarier when i'm shooting it.

[bad64chevelle]

Thanks man, yeah my setup has gotten MANY compliments on the way it shoots, I have outshot alot of high dollar guns not in speed, but accuracy and distance. With my gun i dont have the need to use alot of paint like other friends do, cause its usually one shot to take the person out. Youre 98 looks awesome too. Ill let you know the next time were gonna get a game going and whoever wants to come can. Take it easy!

Jon

[robj]

nice guns.. i used to own a SFL cocker too but i sold it as well as an old dark angel

how is skirmish as a field? 1 of my friends say's it sucks.

[skorpion317]

skirmish has 800 acres' worth of fields. two castle fields (Tippmann and Dye), a hyperpipe field, a Vietnam-style firebase field, etc. etc. that's just a small sampling. Skirmish is probably the best field on the East Coast.

not even close to the best... but i guess for newbies they are nice :) its fun like role playin ones i guess.... relaly depends on the ref you get.. and whichh fields he pics.. althoughu can request certain ones.....

the BEST field out there is in the middl oe PA called http://www.emrpaintball.com/

emr... they had a castle WAY before skirmish.. its a LONG drive but they offer to put you up for the night for free when you go.. and WOW those fields are fun.. they even have some TUNNELS underground there.. its amazing they have a ghost town field too like back in the western days and such.. also a lot of speedball .. its just amazing :)

[sikbyrd350]

well, here's the report.
Got held up in traffic so I missed the caravan, but i still went up there with my buddy. We didn't see any EVO's or STi's so we played as walk-on's. We both purchased Tippman Custom 98's(from what I hear, good beginner marker). Had a blast playing, and even though we paid for 1/2 day, the ref said he didn't care and we could play full day.
I took a shot to the head and knuckles and all I have to say is Airsoft hits make paintball hits tickle.(i took a 400fps bb from 5 feet, and 350fps from about 1 inch)
But lemme know when you guys are playing, now that I have my own stuff, I'd be down for anything.

[bad64chevelle]

Good gun choice! If you want some ideas modding it when it comes to it, let me know...I wanna play ASAP...gotta get Compressed tanks certified and buy new CO2 since mine are all outdated now.

[skorpion317]

great choice sikbyrd! the 98 is definitely a great beginner gun. i wouldn't give mine away for the world. check out www.pbreview.com for available mods and reviews and ratings on each one. that should help you out in deciding what to do with it.
