How much do you spend on paintball a month?

[Will Wood]

About how much do you spend on paintball a month? I usually play 2-3 timers per month and spend around 30 bucks each day(free feild and air, all on paint). so 60-90 a month.

[LittMag]

wow, that's not bad. It costs 20 bucks for feild fee for me and about 1/2 a case a paint so 50 bucks a trip. I usually only go about once a month anyway.

[71 LS6]

I play about 3-4 times a month at about $5 each
(free paint and $1 for CO2) but sometimes I need to buy a little paint, so that's why the $5. Next month should be expensive though, gonna have to go nitro

[Havoc_online]

I play about 3-5 times a month and live about an hour from the field, so with gas,field fee, air, paint,etc. probably about 300-500 a month(Then again that's for both Cap and I)

[FutureMagOwner]

lets see i make 40 a week i use all my money theres 4 weeks in a month so:confused: :confused: :confused: ............... 160!!!!

[AcemanPB]

play twice a month 5 bucks field fee 40 on paint

$90

[sk8dood]

2 times a month, $5 field fee, $4 nitro fill, $35 for 1/2 a case. so i spend like $88 a month. during the summer i think i will spend more.

[Jonno06]

2 times a week...
70$ cases...case=2 weeks about
5 fill-4 times=20
----------------
300$....

[dropkick1]

once or twice a month at 15$ field fee, 10$ air pass, 60$ for a case of paint, and 5$ for lunch(pizza), so 90-180 per month.

[MajorDamage]

I usually play twice a month, one tourney and one team practice(no rec for a while now). At practices I get free field fee and air(I ref at the field...perks :)), and I usually get a case of Anarchy, which after my discount is like $51. Then at tournies it costs me $25 for entree and air, and $47 on a case of Anarchy(tournies have lower prices on paint than regular days ;)). Plus it costs me about $5 in gas to get there, and we have our ritual to go to TacoHut/PizzaBell after we play, so thats about $5 or so I guess.

ENDO!

[SlipknotX556]

TACOBELL/PIZZA HUTS RULE!! I have one right near my field. Every time we are hungry and want to eat we stop in and have some food. I love TacoBell/Pizza Hut, Best thing ever created.


O yhea, lets see....

50 a case
6 buck fee
free air.

Used to play once a month.

New field...

65 a case
15 fee
free air

Other field..

80 a case
5 fee
free air


You do the math im to lazy to.

[theraidenproject]

I try to play at least once a month. Paint: $80 case. Admission: $20. All Day Air: $10. Twister Combo: $5 Thats $115 every time I play.:( but its so fun, i guess its worth it :D

[Curly]

Its about $100 a day for me to play with a case and air and admission. I ussually play two or three times a month so $200-$300 a month.

[Restola]

well my 47ci tank lasts me all day. last sunday i shot about 300 paintballs. ive been playing every weekend for a little while now.

so i use about 1/2 case a month, maybe a little more and $10 for air for the month, and $15/day field fee.

so $100/m for once a week. $60 of that is field fees.

[SlipknotX556]

How do you only shoot like 300 a day? I carry about 650 in my harness its a 3+2 redz demension with 150 tubes, a full hopper of 200 all in one game. HOW DO YOU ONLY SHOOT 300 A DAY?!?!?!?

[Will Wood]

How can you shoot that much? I've meet several people with pump guns that could take out really good guys shooting 10+ a second. I'm a front player anyways, I usually only go thru 750 a day, and that is only a hopper or less a day. I never run out either, and win like half the time against guys shooting crazy and going thru many pods and stuff. I get kinda mad when I see people just like unload a hopper on a bunker or something to see how fast they could shoot, when I could use that and actually put it to use. Guess I'm kina jelous they can afford more balls then me....

[Restola]

http://home.neo.rr.com/kenthouse/justin/phantomgrav2.jpg

thats my current setup and how i shoot 300 a day. im in the market for another semi though so im sure ill go right back to my 1/2 case/day i usually do playing semi.

[Dubstar112]

about, 400...

100 an outing. Depends where I play, some times I play indoor and paint is 80 a case + 15 for field fee. and about 5 for food.

Other times 60 a case, which total day cost is 70 or so..


BTW, I buy a case because I play ALL day. 9- 5 or 6

[BTAutoMag]

100-150$ gotta upgrade gotta upgrade gotta upgrade gotta upgrade gotta upgrade gotta upgrade gotta upgrade gotta upgrade

[dropkick1]

a phantom on hpa? yo restola man u know that phantoms were designed to use co2. i'm just wondering why your using hpa.

ken

[InfinatyBPS]

man you people have it way too easy, I get $80 a month at most if I save my lunch money and I try to play once a month when im not upgrading/ fixing my cocker...

Feild 1
Feild fee- $35
Air- $15
Paint- $30 for seconds 1000rds(never enough)

Feild 2
Feild fee- $30
Air $10
paint- Same as above

I get my paint from my local store or else I gotta pay $120 a case of feild or $65+ for a case of PMI.

Why do some of you guys have feilds that are so cheap?

[Will Wood]

Why are yours expensive?? Here it cheap. I go for free at the closest feild to me..1/2 hour. Another feild I get a Discount from 10 to 5 with my MRPL card. (Maine Recreational Paintall league)

[Xerces]

well infinaty, the reason my field is so cheap is its on land this guy owns, whose house is even near the main proshop thing. plus its liek out in the middle of nowhere. its also cheap because its all woods courses, with piles of sticks for bunkers, and maybe a peice of plywood against a tree. i find its more fun that alot of that hyperball stuff.

[StuDawggie]

okay let's add it all up for me

Admission = $0 (no fee for members)
Case = $75 - $85(member rate depending on the paint)
Mag Air = $10 - $15 (Nitro 2 or 3 fills depending)
Tippy Air = $8 - $10 (gotta love CO2 on a back up)
Food/Drink = $20 - $30(this at the bar after playing)
------------------------------
Sub-Total = $113 - $140
x 2 day per month
------------------------------
$226 - $280

That also does not incluse gun upgrades, parts or any other work that I do to the gun, which can vary each month from $25 to $150. So I could possibly spend almost $400+ a month for paintball.

[-Jôker-]

0$ a month...:( im to poor to play!! i havent played since MLKJR day back in like... well a long time ago.... and i have a leak in my gun from then still... :(

[TXStorm]

hmmmm, lets see here... i play 2 times a month...

Field Fee------- $8.00
2 Air Fills----- $10.00
1000 Paintballs- $35.00

Total Per Day = $53.00 x 2 = $106.00 per month

[Kaiser Bob]

well its as cheap as 60 a day or around 115 depending on the field if i get 1 case of paint (which i feel REALLY restrained by... damn emag :o ) So I dont get to play as much as i would like. If i can get my school stuff and work stuff square, Id probably be spending bout 300-400 a month in an optimal month.

[theraidenproject]

Kaiser - Where can you play around here for only $60? I would REALLY like to know. Thanks.

[Kaiser Bob]

Fireball mountain and ABC are both 25 bucks and BYOP. Fireball mountain sells paint for like 38-40 dollars a case.

[El Pipi Fantasma]

Let's see.......
50$ a case (internet)
admission x 4 2.5$
co2 x 8 2.5$
the look on everyone's face when I pull out my ZAP priceless

So,
50 + 10 + 20 = 80$ a month
4x a month so 20$ a trip
That does not include any upgrades or anything else I buy for paintball.

[Will Wood]

I feel so lucky, I get away with it so cheap. Either free feild and air, +$15/bag, or $15 for all day air and fee, plus cheapo paint I buy.

[nicad]

Sounds like me (not quite $1000, more like $500, but I'm at 12 markers and growing).

[nicad]

heh.. yep. 21 here with 2 more on the way...
need more room!

[El Pipi Fantasma]

I am also an equipment whore. Autococker, two rebels, ZAP ZXS-600e, one revvy, three VL's, Two CO2 bottles, Two Masks, three sets of gloves, two jerseys, two boxes (500 count) of paintballs, one six plus one pack, twelve tubes (100rd), two barrels for my cocker, remote coil, Two types of fittings for the remote coil, about a million different tools, ANS front block kit for my cocker (like the stock better), uuuuhhhhhh...... two ruined (so comfy now!) pairs of pants, a fryed x-board for the revvy (DO NOT run water through a revvy to clean it :p ).

That's about it.

I'm selling the cocker and working this summer to get:
RT Pro with modified minimag (black warp left) body
Warp
Halo
114/3k (4.5k if I can find it, pm me if you find one)
and an Awesome Gaming Computer (My grand parents are helping me (money wise) on this one :D )
Maybe a Tippy Pro-Carbine for my brother

[Will Wood]

(DO NOT run water through a revvy to clean it ).

Thanks for the imput! I won't do it. :)

[marley618]

On a normal month it's about $30, unless I shoot tons of paint. At my field I just walk on and play (without paying field fee), then I give my tank to someone with all day air and have them fill it up. The owner knows I don't pay but since I buy all my paint from him he doesn't mind. So I guess it works out good.

[Bruizer]

let me see, free air, free food, free field fee, paint is 45-50 a case. usually play 3 times a month, plus 50 or so for a new mod or accessory for one of my markers.

[nicad]

yeah, having a field to call "home" is nice.. free everything but paint. but after going there for over 9 years, yad think SOMEthings would be kinda like that... :)

El Pipi Fantasma: dont even get me stared on listing everything.. id poke a brain partical out.. hehehe.

[giblit]

i spend about 200-300 a month it all depends on who im playing against or if its a scrimage and how long i play or a tournament
