Ya, cold and pain sux haha. I have played with my spyder gun. It's ok but I'm gonna get a tip as well. Airsoft is a clean painful alternative if you never tried it.

I've been in PB for 7 years.

In Jan 06 I closed down my online store. I was a dealer for 15 companies, and used to sell $10,000 of PB stuff a month.

I quit because I haven't had the time to deal guns, and my partner also decided to do the same thing.

Great Sport. Looking to get back in it soon.

I'm trying to get a group together around here. Kinda boring during winter here. Got alot of military guys here too, so should be fun to see if they can shoot worth a $hit.

Get a spyder with an electric trigger, you can get upgrades for these guns for cheap and they are fairly light.(much lighter than any tippmann.) Tippmann are too heavy for me and really are not that good of guns except they are pretty durable. Don't beleive the whole backspin hype on that one barrel, it does let the ball fly further, but if you have ever played paintball you would know that at a certain range the balls wont pop they will just bounce off.

If i were you i would get a spyder because you could easily outfire your friends if you put a little money into it and they have a ton of aftermarket parts.
