Anyone Here Play Paintball?

[PAFirefighter11]

I am too lazy to join a paintball specific forum, so I shall ask my questions here. Been playing since I was about 14 (28 now). I have a VL Revolution for my Autococker. The plastic cap for the hopper broke off. I can't seem to find one that's the proper size. Any recommendations on local shops that'll carry it? I am playing on Sat and need to get it before then or I'll have paint fallin' out while I play! Thanks guys & gals.

try lvp south

307 Swartley Rd
Hatfield, PA 19440

back in the day when i played alot they always had tons of spare parts and really helpful people there. This was back a few years though, not sure how it is these days.

[PAFirefighter11]

That's where I am playing but it used to be called Cobra Command. But I am looking for somewhere more local to buy parts from. I play at Poco Loco in Limerick. That's my favorite field in the area.

when you go to lvp south you can definitely get it there, so for short term when you go you'll be good. If you ever need anything else I'm not familiar with any around where you're at. But if you need guns or anything you could always message me:P I was sponsored and played a lot back before I got into cars. I have so much crap

[Spoolin_TT]

were you ever at poco-loco? great place to paintball

Thanks man, seems like you're one of the few who actually read my post lol. I played pro back in the day (same sponsorship deal) with Team Turbulance out of Elkton, MD and Team Keystone Carnage out of Huntingdon Valley, PA. NPPL AMA B. Good times man, I miss that ****. But yah no longer shooting a SP Shocker, now I am shooting my uhm.. 3rd? WGP Auto Cocker. I don't play enough to really buy more equipment. I have the usual 4+1, remote, VL Rev, Co2 (no more N2), masks, etc.

i just played my first paint ball match ever a few weeks ago it was a lot of fun, we are going to try to make it a regular thing now, any pointers at to what guns and ammo to look into?

[PAFirefighter11]

Anything by Bud Orr/WGP, or Smart Parts are the way to go for a good marker. You'll pay some cash, but they are worth it. Those were the brands I played with back in the day, but they still seem to be around today and producing good markers.

Man you are bringing back old memories I barely remember LOL. I remember uhm.. three of my teammates. Rob, Sean, Nigel. I think I still owe Sean $80 from before we were sponsored. Trying to remember our sponsors too..

I think we had Global Paintball Network, some company that sold grips, uhm.. Paintball Warehouse? Damn, it's been forever.

I played a few scattered GPL events with the teams I was on. Never did fantastic in that league compared to other one-offs with isolated round-robin within your own class. The sandbagging there was insane...

Yah.. there were a few reasons back in the day not to continue playing. It's like racing too, ya know? Why show all we have if we can win the first few rounds with 1/2 and 3/4 effort? Too much drama, as with most other things, mainly the team issues was what caused us to disband. We saw it with other teams in the league too. And of course, that was JUST when we started getting good and didn't have to pay a dime for anything... damn.

The twins on ECX/Turbulence/Arsenal both played a season and a half with us our Rookie/True Novice year. They then went to Rapid Fire which you probably remember. Small world...

We had a nice sponsorship gig as well for a Rook/Am-B team.

I remember the twins. Those dudes were ****ing hilarious.

We ran into them alot before Infamy broke away.

Use to play with Misfit Toys... I jacked someones gat at a GPL event and got caught... that single action changed my life... LOL.

[camopaint0707]

[DPancoast]

[VERTZX]

not sure if it will fit your hopper, but back in my playing days..(god i miss it) we used to make custom speed feeds.. that could double as a new lid.. i know your post is old..but still an idea. and it costs about $3 and u can enjoy the chips as well.

Yep, to this day they are a few of the funniest people I think I've ever met. We played regularly against Misfit Toys. If my memory serves me right, we beat the Red squad in the 1st round of the Skyball 2002 semi's.

[Gabe4AFE]

Haha. That was before my time with Misfits. I've seen lots of video from the Skyball. I heard that was ****ing LEGIT.

Big E and all the Misfits are mad cool. Their home field is at LVP South now...
