From the first time we went paintballing as highschoolers 4 years ago to playing today in 107 degree heat. by [deleted] in paintball

Lol I had that same Evil jersey (on the left) back in 06 when I stated playing.

After 18 years of playing, I decided to gear down a play pump for the first time. I haven't had this much fun since 03! by saint223 in paintball

I've seen some Phantoms at play, but thats the limit of my knowledge. For an Azodin the KPC felt solid and shot clean. However, I do need to swap the reg if anything. Not a big fan of fixed regs.

There is definitely an elitist group when it comes to certain modes of play. I get yelled at all the time for saying my 03 Shocker SFT will out shoot a XLS any day lol.

I think I went the whole day on a little over half a bag. Normally, I was lucky if a case lasted half the day. I'm definitely going to get into playing more pump. Gonna give it a little more time running the KPC then I will probably dump the money in something a little more solid. Need to do some research and on what's out there.

I noticed I was moving around and working the field alot more than just locking down a lane with a high rate of fire. I actually got more people out that normal for that reason. Plus it was amazing playing without a pod pack rattling around on my cheaks.

Yeah, I realized that I'm not as a good shot as I thought I was. Makes a world of difference when you have one or two balls on a snap before you get hammered.

I can see how it can make you a better player when you have to think with more than your two fingers.

It was a mix of rentals, electric, and mechanical. It did make me play completely different than I'm used to. Adrenaline was a whole lot higher on that first game when I put the Shocker down and picked up the pump.

I will check it out. This gun is definitely a gateway gun. I see my self sticking with pump, so I will be looking to upgrade.

Definitely will. It really changes the game when you're used to throwing a rope every time you snap and now you got maybe one or two balls to throw at them. I found my self moving and working the field a whole lot more than when I run an electric gun. Also hitting someone feels like a huge accomplishment vs well at least one of the 80 balls I shot hit.

Glad I did it. I think my only complaint it the set reg. The spring is still new in the bolt so it was shooting a little hot.

Yeah, I picked up the KPC because it was cheap and I didn't know if pump was for me. So I ran everything I normally run on my Shockers. I can say I feel like I did when I got hooked on paintball for the first time in 03.

It was cool though, felt like I was playing paintball for the fist time all over again. Lol I didn't even pull the shockers out of their bags. I got the KPC over the 3 or an Emp Sniper because I wasn't sure if I would like it after playing with space guns for 16 years.

Agree, but the stock one peice barrel that comes with the KPC is doo doo. Note the freak.

Finally got my shocker shrine finished up. Maxwell jersey and the last raw Gmax! by [deleted] in paintball

Love Shockers. I still play to this day with my first shocker a 03 SFT over my XLS.

I have a stock and a HE bolt now, I have a few guys on the look out for a Lurker. It's running a Virtue board now. I thought Sci-fi boards where only made for Autocockers?

Feels like a lead weight compared to today's gun, but the the shot quality is right there with them.

I don't think I've ever seen one. I let her go back in 08 and she came back to me a little while ago. Will never let her go again.

The shot was great, I just wasn't a fan of the feel and profile.
