Here are some common paintball accessories that people use: 1) Extra batteries if you are using an electronic paintball gun, you need to make sure that you have extra batteries with you whenever you go to wage a war. Although you may have the most technologically advanced paintball gun in the planet, if it has no power, it's quite useless. What is a paintball sniper? Paintball snipers are said to have reached the peak of true paintball. Paintball snipers are able to shoot people out of a game without even making people realize that they have been shot. They are like the wind, felt and heard but never seen. As you may have realized, stealth is a paintball sniper's best quality. The Paintball Supplies There are two main categories of the paintball supplies the reusable and the disposable. The reusable supplies involve the bolts and nuts, the gun, the paintball markers, the tank, the mask, the padding, and many others. You cannot go to the paintball battlefield without any of these paintball facilities. 4) Antibiotic cream and bandages playing paintball won't get you wounded but all of the jumping and running could get you scratched and bruised. Bringing antibiotic cream and some adhesive bandages as part of your paintball supply pack should help you make sure that even the smallest cut will not get infected. This is especially effective in a "woods" type of paintball field. There is, however, one disadvantage to porting and that is the fact that porting makes the paintball gun use up more gas. A ported barrel lets gas escape. This means more gas is needed for the paintball pellet to gather the maximum power for release. The Pros and Cons of Using a Paintball Pistol When you are playing paintball, you usually have two choices of weapons: rifle or pistol. Although the common practice is to bring a rifle as your primary weapon and a paintball pistol as a sidearm, many people are considering just bringing the pistol to a game.
