    Marker storage + travelling

    I usually carry around my marker + all the shenanigans in an old duffel bag I had for going to the beach, but I was wondering how do you guys get your makers to the field, and actually store them around in your house?

    I found a nice scrapbooking tote at Michaels with a coupon a while back.

    it doesn't hold ALL my gear, but it holds my warped mag + 114 ci tank and various other bits easily. I like it because the sides are ridgid, it's got a collapsable handle and doubled up roller wheels. I keep all my soft goods (harness, clothing, pods) in a smallish duffle that sits on top of this bag nicely.

      I use a big Stanley tool box on wheel. I can carry everything in it:

      Pics are outdated, as most of the content is now AGD-related, but it gives you a good idea nontheless:


      Top tray is used for tools and barrels, and I keep my HPA tank, loader and coiled remotes underneath:


      The Lazy Susan is great for small parts:

      Bottom part of tool box has enough space for my primary and backup marker:

        Costco was selling a bag that had a large top and bottom compartment, wheels, carrying straps and backpack straps. Approximatley the same size as planet eclipse gear bag. Holds all my gear and it was only $40.

          I just use a big wheeled bag intended for tennis. The markers are usually in a pistol case inside. I like the toolbox idea, but I always end up bringing about 4 markers to play (we're always inviting friends who have never played before) so I need the room.



          Old setup on the RT...

            I have a UTG bag. it is huge. I usually fit everything in there, with a little overflow into a backpack (Only because I am the one with the Chrono, extra paint, spare parts, and loaner markers.) Look for them on Ebay

              Old duffle bag. Vest goes in the bottom, then the marker/mask/hopper/tank/toolkit goes on top. KISS.

              Apparently, the TSA doesn't agree with that principle. If we're talking about flying with gear, they'll mess with it every time (and steal your tank if the reg's still on).

                Nice, I've been considering buying a paintball gear bag but I think they are overpriced. I really like the Stanley option!

                  Right, the paintball specific gearhauling options are slightly better suited...but exponentially higher priced.

                    I was using a huge bag, they can fit pretty much everything, the one i used could prolly fit enough stuff for 3 people. Only issue i had with it was the lack of organization, especially after playing.
                    Im trying out a large toolbox kinda like Hook's, but way smaller, not enough room for my guns/tanks/masks. But its good for my tools parts n some stuff underneath. My bro has a large stanley one i might end up "borrowing" indefinitely:P

                      That's exactly my problem. My bag is super disorganized, it's just.. well.. an empty bag where I throw things at. hahaha

                        Iv been using a backpack I got for college. has a small pocket for my gun, fit the tank hopper and barrel kit in the main compartment then I strap my pod pack around the backpack and attach my mask in a goggle bag to the pac.

                        I use this cause last few times I used my motorcycle to get to the field.
