I was at borders a week ago looking to pick up PB2X. I guess they re-arranged their magazines so at first I couldn't find it. I look for about 10 minutes in the sports and recreation section and can't find them anywhere, or any other pb magazine. Finally I decide to give up and as I was walking to the exit I see all the pb magazines in the the men's interest section, next to all the gun and ammo magazines. I guess Borders thinks paintball is more like using guns that actually being a sport. It made me sad a little. :(

If you complain to the management about it you may find that they move the PB mags back to the sports section.

Same thing at Barnes and Nobles. Anything that is a 'mens' magazine are together. SPorts, hunting, paintball, fantasy sports, fitness, skateboarding....

It's funny because tons of women play paintball. I haven't gone to the local field once without seeing a female.

Good point. I meant females though. When I go there are usually 2 or 3 playing. Of course the ratio is in favor of men, but there is still a large number of women who play.
