Paintball

There are a vast amount of tactics used in many different fields by different players with different equipment. The most general tactic is to have someone pin down an opponent, and another advance to his flank. 1v1 shootouts have a much lower success rate then a pin and flanking maneuver. If you want specific tactics, you need to ask a specific question or scenario.

anything will reduce the impact of a paintball

No. It is below even the standard for starter marker.

There are currently no bolt action markers on the market. Most are internal conversions from pump guns, or external changes to modified semi automatics.

A paintball is about the size of a normal marble but definetly not as hard as one
Standard Paintballs are .68 in caliber
paintball as a sport is actually quite large. paintball has over 20 million players. and is an industry of millions of dollars.

The worst injuries in the actual sport are broken ankles, and may things associated with athletics. It is when paintball guns are used outside of paintball, things become dangerous. Many people are blinded by paintball "drive-bys" A recorded death was caused by a poorly maintained marker's tank becoming a projectile and breaking his neck during one of these.

No not all paintball markers are electric. For instance the Tippman 98', and 98'custom, one of the most reliable and trustworthy guns on the market, are not electric. However buying an electric marker does grant you some benefits. Serious paintballers use electric markers because they allow they to select and customise a mode of fire that best suits them. Some electric markers also have an "eye" which prevents the gun from firing unless a paintball is completely loaded into the chamber, this saves from the firing with no paintball in the chamber or when a paintball is not fully in the chamber. Electric hoppers also are used to more quickly feed balls into the chamber on higer end guns.

It depends on the quality of the paint (better paint breaks easier). High end paint can break from being dropped with a slightly raised hand, where low end (walmart) paint must be thrown at the ground at fairly high speeds to break.

It sounds like your tank is empty. You should go get refill it.

around 300 feet, the same an nearly every other gun.

If you are looking for a die hard passion and have money to put into it go with paintball. If you are looking for something fun to do every once in a while for cheap then go with airsoft

They are the same thing, just different ways of calling it. Players will most likely call them Markers because that is their proper name. But gun works either way. The creation of the term marker was designed to indicate that a paintball marker is not designed to be a weapon.

The most popular swimming goggles are Speedo opals and they are very good.

There is no best swimming goggle. It is just a long process of finding the best goggles for you. Once you find the right pair - stick with them.

Yes, although I wouldn't feed it to them on a plate!

Paintballs (including the paint) are made entirely from food-grade products and as such are non toxic.

the jt tac five is a horrible marker unless you are going out once every 2 months than it will do fine but if your looking for a cheep gun i recommend getting a carver 1 or a azodin chaos ( the two best sub 100$ guns you can get imo )

If you meant "why do you need any gas tank for Paintball": the expanding c02 or hpa is what pushes the ball out of the barrel at high speeds and can be used in reseting the gun.

If you meant "why you need a C02 tank specifically":

you dont need a co2 tank to play paintball. their is compresed air tankes available. most electrical guns must run on air enless you want to be doing maintenance on the gun after every game and replace parts after 5 games. most non electrical guns also can be ran on air but is capable of runing on co2 but air would keep your gun in better condition.

You need co2 or compressed air(nitrogen and compressed air are the same thing) so the paintball can fly out of the barrel and to re cock your gun automatically.

It's divided into about 3 different categories really.

Low end: $20-$200

These aren't exactly good markers but they are good if your not planning on playing a lot and seriously.

Mid end: $200-$400

These are good if your looking to be in a team or playing regularly but still don't want to dish out a lot of cash for a good marker.

High end: $400-$1500/$2000

These are usually very expensive, very good markers that well known paintball companies make.

A paintball squeegee is a device used for clearing a broken ball out of the marker due to the bolt cutting it and throwing paint down the barrel. Basicily it is what it sounds like it is a rubber o ring at the end of a stick which is stuck down the barrel then pulled out to clear the barrel. A variation of this is the paintball swab, which is my personal favorite, it is like a long q tip. that actually soaks up the paint in the barrel.

I think everywhere but if youre not sure u should just go to a paintball field or your backyard or the woods for woodsball

No. This is because the end head of the remote line does not have a valve. you would have to open the tank valve, fill it, close it, remove the remote, put it in your gun and then turn it back on. This would be more complicated then just removing the tank and filling it. If the remote line had an ending with a valve it would be easy, otherwise removing it would re-empty the tank.

Many of the retail sporting goods stores will have refill stations for your cylinders. Also, I have seen hardware stores that will do that too.

Where did you buy the gun? Chances are that the store the gun was purchased from will be able to refill the cylinder for you.

Ramping is when you achieve a set rate of fire, which will then "ramp" your rate of fire to a higher speed.

Basically if you fire faster than a set rate (say 5 balls per second) then the mechanism will switch to fully automatic and "ramp" up the rate of fire to something higher (say 10 balls per second)

they are more lickly to chop when they are hotter they'll break inside the gun and that isn't very good when your in the middle of the battlefield. and if it does happen you have to clean the barrel with a squeegie or a cloth or something.

this will depend on the paint you are using, good paint that fits one 12" barrel will be very accurate, but a different good paint will be not as good in the same barrel. look into the J&J ceramic though, they are inexpensive and very good barrels that work with most paint

Not normal 68 cal. paintballs but you can buy special 6mm paintballs intended for airsoft guns ive never seen one in stores so you might have to order them from online
