      Do we have any idea what paint will be available? If it's something better than last time I'll get a bag of that, but if it's more of the same I'll just buy the cheaper entry and use what's left from last time.

        Premium paintball shows they have graffiti in stock. I can do a group order if they have enough paint

        If they have Graffiti and someone wanted to split a case, I'd be interested in a couple bags.

        I know I won't be able to shoot a case.

        I would take half a case at least. Maybe a full one with the amount of teching I'm doing st home lately.

      Oddbawl any solid intel on what field paint quality is like? Or if There will be better available?

      The local proshop stocks Art Life paint (and I believe Valken and Empire as well). Art Life isn't on the approved BYOP brand list but I'm wondering if that's just because it wasn't around when the list was written. I can check with Trevor. I can buy a bag of whatever paint from the proshop and give it a test at home. I can also check pricing and buy a case or two to split if anyone is interested.

      Hopefully there won't be a cold snap between then and now, but the 14 day forecast is looking like it should be in the neighborhood of 10°C so hopefully no winter paint will be required.

          Depends on the paint... but I'm planning on bringing the Nasty so far. Maybe the Sniper build if all the parts arrive?

          If I end up using my leftover paint, I think/hope the Gmek will be able to shoot without breaks.

          And God turned to Gabriel and said: “I shall create a land called Canada of outstanding natural beauty, with majestic mountains soaring with eagles, sparkling lakes abundant with bass and trout, forests full of elk and moose, and rivers stocked with salmon. I shall make the land rich in oil so the inhabitants prosper and call them Canadians, and they shall be praised as the friendliest of all people.”

          “But Lord,” asked Gabriel, “Is this not too generous to these Canadians?”

          And God replied, “Just wait and see the neighbors I shall inflict upon them."

          Probably gonna cycle the Mag and the Ranger. I'm sure the green sniper will make an appearance as well.

              How does the hopper force the balls thru the warp?
              I'm kinda disappointed you didn't have a red dot on there with an empty battery compartment

            anson it has a vmech loader on it. You have to wind a clock spring. It is actually perfectly functional, but I probably won't use it as it makes an ungodly noise when the spring unwinds.

            I'll probably run magfed on it. And if you people really wanted to push the issue on batteries, I could buy a solar powered red dot sight.

            I do think the Automag will be seeing some heavy action though. And maybe my Prolite if I can devise a way to make it shoot field speeds on HPA.

              Toestr I was just joking about the batteries in sights. Imo go crazy it wouldn't make a difference to me. Don't go buying a new sight just for this game.

              Just that when you said "no battery in sight" I was just thinking literally

            Looks like I'll have my AGD order next week... I wasn't planning on bringing the Mag initially but if I can get the lvl10 tuned right I just might.

            Too many options.

                Make sure it has urethane orings! Also check the detent. My 'cat gets rollouts when I run. I might try changing the spring, but the one I got in a parts kit is also too soft to prevent them.

                  I called Trevor just now and he told me that he has a few different types of paint.
                  Valken New World, Chill and Graffiti.

                  I asked about the price of the Graffiti and he said it was a $10 upgrade to any package you choose.

                  On another note I was able to buy 3 cases of graffiti from a shop out in London. It just got delivered today.
                  I'm going to check it out later tonight. If it's usable I'll have 1 case of paint available to anyone that needs it

                    Looks like it will be just above freezing on game day. Take that into account for your paint purchases.
