Foam Paintballs?????

[epterry]

Where can you get these things. I've heard people talk about them, but do they exist. If so where can you buy them. Thanks :cool:

when i was on vacation in north carolina one time, we went to an arcade and they had a little indoor field set up but instead of paintballs they were using balls of cork or something, it was pretty cool. Then some guy just went around with a vaccuum sucked them all up, and reused em

I've never heard of um...interesting:rolleyes:

pepperball.com sells law enforcement paintballs...pepper filled and such. They also have some cool clear ones. But my point is I think they sell rubber paintballs, kinda like foam, I guess.

mini marshmallows work good too....but they can still hurt at close range, and they tend to jam. try it luke a musket game, one shot at a time

they're also very unpredictable, so its fun to shoot at your friends

I always though it would be funny to show up with an Emag or Angel and start playing against all the guys with singrays.:eek:

mini marshmallows work good too
big ones work better:D

[Croix71]

You could always try using those styrofoam packing material. :)

[pariah1475]

lol how do u play lazerball? run around and shoot ppl w/foam paintballs or what? hehe that would be funny to come in with an angel or bushy lol

[845]

They use a pressure sensitive vest that when hit other team scores.:eek:

[pariah1475]

lol...sounds alot more fun than lasertag :D

oh yeah i dont think styrophoam packinng material would work, those things are really fragile and will probably get blasted into peices when the bolt hits it with the air

[Jonno06]

do those things hurt if you shoot someone....will it break a window...??

im gonna have a paintball game in my house....

[rjvemt1]

do i even need to mention the potential for personnal injury here! in the early 90s someone came up with the brilliant idea of a 'target practice reusable paintball' so the idiots manufacted and sold hard plastic white 'paintballs'! it wasnt long before one was shot at a pair of jt's (on a coffee can not a face) and it shattered the lense. so if your gonna put things in ytour gun that it wasnt designed for, atleast dont stick your finger down the feed tube whenit jams!:rolleyes:

[pariah1475]

i dont think its that big of threat...those foam paintballs dont hurt, and besides as long as a mask is being used its really fun. reminds me of the time that my friends and i went to some abandoned houses and turned our velocity as low as it could go and played urban paintball. it still hurt like a ***** but it was fun as hell!

[Omicron]

Virus, how many times can those be shot? Are they all the same size? Does it hurt mroe or less than a regular paintball?

[Me]

They did, mucho expensive tho. Something like $200 for 500 rounds...

ENDO!

[AcemanPB]

dang that is crazy, guess thats why laser ball never caught on

[Skoad]

well your missing one of the main points of them...THEY ARE REUSABLE :P

might have to clean them so you don't get junk in your gun, but i bet it'd be fun this 4th of july for our party we have...i might have to pick up a few bags :)

[AcemanPB]

ok well does anyone know how far and fast the go, and if you need to wear full paintball mask or just saftey goggles when playing with these things

[einhander619]

That depends on if you're man enough to take losing an eye.

[Jonno06]

lol.......will these things hurt??

will they break anything???

i can shoot them with my retro minimag????(freak barrel,so i know they will fit)

[magmonkey]

I have a few bags of foam balls
they are really entertaining

chrono your marker at 200 fps (any higher and they make sharp turns leaving the barrel)
