I love paintball!

This week has been pretty exciting. I was able to buy a new paintball gun and took it out for a spin yesterday. The gun is an Autococker select fire with all kinds of upgrades including a black magic regulator, new bolt, drop forward and clamping feedneck (see pic). I also got a high pressure air system to keep up with the rapid fire and I had an electronic hopper to feed paintballs to the gun faster. The guns shoots amazing too. Even in semi-auto mode it shoots very fast and is pretty accurate. I'd like to buy a new barrel that is a little more quiet and accurate. It was a lot of fun playing though.

There is a new paintball company in Provo now called JT Paintball Rentals. They have pretty good prices for rental guns (as cheap as $10/day) and the owner organizes FREE paintball games and has on-site air fills. Every other Tuesday he hosts a free game across the street from the Provo Airport. It starts at 5:30pm and we usually play until about 8:00pm. The next time we play is July 1st, anyone who wants to play is invited. The owner will also help us host a game if we can get a group together.

If you are interested in playing on Tuesday's or want to set up a group game on a Saturday, post a comment and I'll let you know when we have something set up. Also, if you want to be added to an email list of local games you can email the owner at jtpaintballrentals@gmail.com and he’ll email you when games are planned. If you haven’t played paintball, give it a try. If nothing else, you’ll have some fun war stories to tell.
