Interested in Paintball??

For many years now i've been recruiting teenagers for one sport that you don't see, let alone hear about, here in Delano. I began playing paintball as a highschool student and eventually gained a lot of experience on the field. I then served four years in the US Marine Corps and played with different teams from different branches of service (e.g. Air Force, Navy, and Army). I have now returned home to Delano and would like to get the word out to the people of this city. Hopefully many of you will enjoy the sport as much as I do. Any questions can be made here.

Thank you DELANOLIFE for making this forum possible.

Sort of a free for all death match with paint... but in this case we're in teams. You should get back into it. Let me know if you're interested in playing sometime soon and i'll see what I can do as far as getting something together. I know a couple of PB Players.; ▶ Reply to This

As far as the guns go... just some advice before you go out and start shooting them... have them cleaned and lubed. It would really suck to go out there and just have a game or two before something starts acting wierd on you.; ▶ Reply to This

I had one guy go up against me with an A5 and it was quick on the auto, but on semi... it didn't have much speed. So we'll see...; ▶ Reply to This
