Worst idea. I had a friend walk out of a 7/11 and get shot in the eye by a passing car. That had some distance and messed up his eye. That kid is practically point blank. 280+fps at the end of the barrel plus 10-12 feet to eye.

These are the kind of people that SHOULD NEVER touch a paintball marker. Sure i can see them doing this, if the kid was wearing a mask. Now, the thing is, how do you miss at that distance? The kid shooting have a bad eye or something? anyone competent enough to hold a marker should be able to hit something the size of an apple at about 10-15 feet.I played tourny paintball for 1 year, played a few out of state tourneys and such, and this kind of video is the kind of thing I hate seeing..

im in the same boat as you, i play scenario, but people like this give the sport a bad name, its even worse when someone else gets hit, i dont know if you heard about it but about a year ago, an infant was hit by some kids doing a "drive by" with a paintball gun, she was it in the eye and one of the forums i go to, http://www.techpb.com, raised a bunch of money to go to her, showing the family that paintball is not the problem, stupidiy is

Seeing that video made me quite upset.....a** hats like these shouldn't even touch a marker,we practice safety to the utmost when we play here where we are at......at a field or even playing in the woods.

That kid whom was shot in the eye I am pretty sure he lost that eye,an impact like that will bust the retina beyond repair without face protection,sucks him and his friends had to learn a hard lesson that way.

I laughed really hard!
I REFUSE to believe there are really people that stupid. And if you ask anyone who has met me, they'll tell you I have no faith in the intelligence of other humans. But THAT. That's not stupidity. That's asking for it.

Humanity as a species is doomed. DOOMED. So freaking doomed.

well, being a long time member of PBNation, I have read countless stories like this. Once a kid stuck a small screwdriver in the barrel and shot his brother to death. That being said...Paintball is badass and fun when douchebags aren't around.

I never did get that style of paintball; Speedball.Spewing ammo as fast as your fingers can move and wait for someone to run into your bullet barrage.

I didn't dig it much before I tried it, but after giving it a shot, it's still about survival and that's what I like about it. Still can't hold a candle to woods ball though! I love the war atmosphere!

I like my T-98custom too though I want a new barrel, double trigger and expansion chamber. Mine is still stock from the box from like 10yrs ago! I'm glad I got it instead of the spyder.

I put a 13inch barrel and a drop forward on mine. Great balance with a 16oz tank.

lol.

I have owned a Marq6, Ego6, 2k5'd Dragon, Black Alias, 2k6 Infamous, DM6, DM7, UL'd PMR and an F7 LE.

But I played tourney. The tippmanns are super reliable if you take care of them correctly. Plus they're great for kids just starting out.

The ones we rent at the field I work at are 68 Carbines. Things are so old but they work like a charm.

My first gun was a 98 custom, but two days in it was all f**ked up. Balls kept getting jammed in the barrel. It wouldn't shoot straight at all, and there was a leak coming from somewhere. Me and my dad both retired those guns and I got a Spyder Rodeo, I love the thing

Your the first I've heard to complain about the 98. You got shafted.
