I think the only thing cheep in this sport is the air I fill my tank with.

my air fills are 5 bucks (68/45)...!!!!!!!!!!

and they don't allow all day air

IMO, dye cockers are the most overpriced guns out there. stock pneumatics for 800+ dollars??? they have nice bodies and are reasonably fast, but there is no way that they are worth that kind of cash.

i wonder how much it costs to make these guns... would be funny if some of these 1000$ gun only cost 100 bucks to make.

i think the most over priced thing in paintball atm are the hpa tanks.. you have got to be kidding me 150-400$!! for a hpa tank?!?! it probibly cost them 20$ to make....

yes, paintball is expensive we need more paintball gun makers to get the prices down. since there are so few makers they have an upper hand at ripping us off so to speak.

I let the wife talk me into getting the 16 year old twins an Impact Angel (waaaay over priced) and a Trauma Matrix (not too bad). 3k at one lick hurts!

I vote.........What are you talking about, the whole damn sport is expensive.

I think you guys are forgetting that paint is by far the most over priced item in paintball. Think about what the average field charges per case, somewhere between $55 and some fields as much as $107 a case and the true cost per case, which is <$15. Yeah, HPA tanks are expensive, but when three to four point five thousand PSI is on the line, I'm not going with the cheapest thing on the market. And with gun bodies, I hate to break it, but CNC time is EXPENSIVE!!! The machines themselves are between $100,000 to $250,000 apiece so there is tremendous overhead, and then they take massive amounts of electricty. Not to mention it takes FOREVER to mill stuff, especially when there are complex designs involved. Keep in mind that these machines can only take off about fifteen to twenty thousands of and inch of metal per pass, and think about the number of passes invovled!!!!!!

Pretty much everythin in paintball is overpriced especially when you take into account that it is cheaper to buy an inferno when they are made in the UK and shipped to the states in the USA. So in a sense everythin is overpriced and will continue to do so until ppl stop paying the prices which is goin to continue

What are you talking about? the whole damn sport is expensive?

[RUFF N TUFF]

the whole sport is expensive I agree. I mean sometimes i think about what im paying for what I'm getting and its ridiculous.

However i do believe that anything buy Shocktech is overpriced!!! Some of those things don;t even come with a barrel or a regulator

Just my opinion feel free to comment other wise

Just to let you know, stock cockers do cost 300 bucks to make, most guns are not overpriced more than 100-200 bucks.

They have to make profit, We pay the prices, so they chargem.

1000 dollar guns do NOT cost 100 bucks to make.

CNC time as the guy above me said takes a long time, and with most guns now adays have 4th axis milling, its amazing how the prices stay as low as they are.

paint is ebtter than before, I think it was 150 back in the oldschool days. and if you complain about 55 bucks a case paint... my god you are lucky, I used to pay 85 a case... now I pay like 50-55 which I am quiet pleased about.

[paintposse]

i get paint for $30 a case
