Paintball guns
My friend is an inventor. His son is into paintball big time (His license plate reads PNTBLL -- or something close). Son has some expensive guns -- and my friend designed a control mechanism for a gun manufacturer that shoots faster than fast. It involves spitting out ***** as fast as they are registered (positive location detection so as to reduce jambing) -- and a control system for the gas. I've seen it shoot, and it is awsome.
if you want to spend the big bucks you can get electronic feeders and air pressure regulators on the CO2 tank along with a fully automatic trigger and bolt. That's kinda cheating though if you ask me. It would be sweet though.
I've thought about buying a paintball gun so I could shoot the worthless b#stards that run red lights, drive slow in the left lane, speed through the neighborhood.
Is it possible to get a bright red, quick drying, hard to remove paint ball that would be a constant reminder to these clowns to start driving better?

That would be a NEGATIVE. Most or if not all paintball's these days are water base paint, which will get washed out in the laundery. I take paintball as a recreational and a serious sport. People that go out and shoot cars, street signs, and people should be shot by one to see how it feels. Just last Sunday a man in California {sp} was shot at and he fell down and hit his head on the ground and is in critical condition at the moment.

I use a Marksman Slingshot, and I am better with it than I am with a paintball gun.
I had a gun, it was one of the best ones I could find at Wal-Mart at the time, but I can't remember what kind it was right away, it wasn't that great, so I decided to be an assasin with a slingshot, and I haven't been hit with one from a slingshot, but I bet it hurts like 'The ****ens'.

No hard feelings or anything, its just upset's me at times to hear people talk like that. Most everybody has seen the video that those three kids made back a few years ago, somewhere in Los Angels {sp}. Those kids made paintball look like a very bad sports, which it isn't. Just venting I guess.
PickupMan, yes it does sting a bit if you get hit by one, it depends on how far your from the other person when he shoots you. I have a few scars from my adventures in paintball.
Nothing to bad though.
I would like to know something though. There is a guy on here, from Michigan, named Jason that has a sweet Angel in the F150online photo section. Just like to know who he is???

One guy was on the older side from the looks of it. The reports that I seen about it never did say the actually names and ages of the victims! From the looks of it most of the victims were in there 20's.

I was wondering if you could tell me how safe paintball is for 12 year olds? My son's hockey windup is at a paintball place and none of them have played before. The way you guys talk it could be painful when hit.
the only time it really hurts to get hit is if you get hit on bare skin. I always wear pants and a full length shirt (no t-shirts). My mask also covers the whole side of my head, as well as my ears and down to the bottom of my jaw. I've been hit in the head before where the mask doens't cover and it doesn't hurt to bad. I got shot right between the eyes one to with my mask on and i didn't feel a thing, except for the fact that i couldn't see where i was running
On some guns you can adjust the velocity, so you could turn it down so that the ***** aren't flying at extreme velocities.
If he's playing with other kids his age, then i wouldn't worry about him getting hurt. Usually older experienced players have insanely powerful guns that shoot so fast they can break the skin. But those are usually guys who participate in tournaments and are really into it.
They'll leave nice red welts though on your skin when you get hit. It stings for about 10 seconds or so, then you forget about it.
