What to do with extra guns when your playing?

Thats exactly what I was thinking. What is the point of playing at a field if you cannot trust the people that play there. That is one of the things I like to look at when I play a field. Are there people there that you can trust or a bunch of people with sitcky fingers running around all over the place.

stolen from feilds...

note the plural on fields, i think they mean that there just hearing about theft in general, not theifs at their field. and ask to have your gun kept in the proshop, there should be no reason why the owner wouldnt let you

Put it in your car, or know everybody playing paintball in the country, like we do in Belgium :)

I've never heard of a gun stolen since 2 years, even if we don't really pay attention to them.

I recently went to SMT indoor field, I really didn't know anyone, but I befriended the owner and staff. If you do this, it will help greatly, once the staff knows you they will be more likley to help you out by watching your stuff. I own a big bag of gear, so if somone were to walk out with it, they would be noticed. Another thing that can help in the unlikely event something does get stolen, is to be unique. My backup is a minimag, purple and chrome color scheme. This combo, while may sound common around here on AO, isn't common at all out in the real world. A few of the guys at SMT know my gun from pics I have posted here, if it were stolen, it would be easily noticed and retreived for return to me. Hope this helps

get a gun case or large tool box and pad lock it... and chain it to some thing... i ref at my field so i put my stuff in our little shack that we do fills and sell paint out of. but no one round here will take stuff...

get to know a ref, or leave it with the office or something... but maybe its tellin u something.. if u need a gun 2 back up a cocker then just ditch the cocker! lol j-k there good guns..

hmmm, uselly i can just leave my bag behind in the staging area and noone even knows there is a backup in there.
I've NEVER had to use my backup, which is a pro carbine, the only use its got used are scenario games, rock play and in other peoples hands when there gun breaks.

im sure you can just ask the people that run the field to hold it though.
