How to Get Started In Paintball
First thing to know would be the equipment needed to start. The only things that are really needed are a gun or marker, as it is sometimes referred, a mask, and some paintballs. The mask is just for safety for obvious reasons and most fields will not let you play without one. Now of course you can battle it out in a non sanctioned area but it is still a great idea to wear a mask any time you may be shot at. The gun however has some attachments that are needed for it to work. You need a hopper, which is the container that attaches to the gun and holds the paintballs. You also need CO2 or other form of pressurized air to propel the paintballs. I also recommend that you purchase a barrel cleaner and some lubricant if it does not come with the paintball gun. Most guns can be taken apart with allen keys so you may need a set if you don’t already have some and it can be a very good idea to get some extra O-rings. And like I already mentioned don’t forget the paintballs themselves. One very inexpensive way to get all of these is to purchase a paintball package. Most come with everything I mentioned above except the paintballs and can be purchased for under $150. Easy way to start playing cheap paintball
