Paintball Guns

Paintball Guns also known as Paintball Markers are used in the game of paintball to shoot your opponents. They come in many different forms from semi-automatic to fully automatic. These guns can range from 50 dollars to over 1000 dollars.

A paintball gun is the primary piece of equipment used in paintball to tag an opposing player. An expanding gas forces a paintball through the barrel at a muzzle velocity of approximately 300ft/s. This velocity is sufficient for most paintballs to break upon impact at a distance, but not so fast as to cause tissue damage beyond mild bruising.

Nearly every commercial field has, and strictly enforces, a rule limiting the muzzle velocity of a paintball at or below 300ft/s from a Paintball Gun. This protects everyone on the field of play. This in turn makes you be able to play free and easy.
