    I havent done it in a while but I'd be up for it.

    Probably better to wait for warmer weather though.

    I saw Blue Collar TV at paintball Atlanta on TV the other night, that place rocks. I used to play there, however after ripping some kid off by selling him my paintball gun and as much as I hate the rental guns, I don't know if I'll be making it to this g2g.

    GA Paintball 2.0
    700 Holcomb Bridge Road
    Suite 500
    Roswell, GA, 30076
    770-998-9099

    $20.00 per person for full day, not sure if this includes gun rental.
    Paint Prices are $80.00 for 2000 paintballs
    Air Prices are $6.00 for 28 oz. ?


    I can be very expensive, 2000 balls is not a whole lot. If we went for a full day. I would expect everyone to go thru at least 2000 balls.

    That is true. Everytime I've been paint balling a couple times and it's always been pretty fun. You do go through paint balls very quick. I'm not sure how many of us have the cash flow for a full day? I'm sure most of you are with me on that one. I wonder if we can buy our own paint balls from like walmart or something just to be cheaper? I donno.....

    It was $15 for a half day. I am sure you can bring your own paint, but even buying it at Walmart will still be expensive all said and done.

    It's $40.00 for 2000 paintballs at Walmart. Half price but still expensive. All said and done it would be about a $100.00 per person for the day, if not a little more.

    Cold weather is the perfact time to play (50deg) because u wear thick clothes anyway. Ther is a place in canton that I went to and trey give groug rates. We paid $30 per person for the entire day. The price included a gun, mask, unlimited Co2, and 500 paint balls. As long as u dont play speed ball u can get buy with fewer paint balls. I used 1000 the entire day and I play speed ball Twice.

    I will post the name as soon as I find it.

    We might be able to get them cheaper than Walmart. I will search around today to see what I can find. Also I am sure the Walmart Brand ones are cheap and probably don't break well. When they don't break is when they hurt.

    Ok, Walmart was about $40 for 2000 paintballs. On ebay I found a case of 8000 for $72 + $39 for shipping. $110 all said and done. Walmart would cost $160 for 8000 paintballs.

    The problem with the cheap ones is that the guns fire at 300 FT/sec (200mph yea) andthey will break inside the gun when u fire.

    Sorry, Nasioc is having some issues with the Moderators being given free will to do whatever and not giving us some space on our leash (especially in the South East), kind of getting annoying.
