Stock class VS semi/electro, whats more fun?

[PsychoBaller]

Hmm....

stock most def. requires more skill... positioning.. and most of all Patience.. heh....

mad fun... I'm sad I sold my old Phantom... then after having SNiper2 for a couple yrs... sold that.... RT kinda took over my life... needed more things zipping past my head... and more fast paced action

Hoser Huh!?

I said Loved it, I never said I was good at it!

In my own defence, last time I played stock class pump (Phantom) was against the Paintball Marshels at Strategy Plus. Those guys & gals rock.

I'll bet he means pump play, not Stock Class Pump. :) IIRC, the last time I played a whole day 9am-5pm of rec games using my PG, I used 3 whole tubes of paint and one 12 gramm. - it was sooo much fun!

Actually, no he means stock class. I know because I was there with him. SC is coming into it's down hear on the right coast. The kids in So. Cal started the revolution and it has come here with a passion.

Last time we played stock was at Strategy Plus paintball in CT. There were enough people for games of 20 v. 20 and more.

We even played some all stock speedball in a big bowl with a town in it.

I am not kidding, there is footage. Go to http://www.stockpaintball.com/videos.html

Some of the most fun I have ever had slingin' paint. Notice that both side had to descend into the bowl when the game starts.

And for those that are interested and live in the area, there are more stock games scheduled starting in March when the whether warms up.

Hey Danz, we have the RP seal of approval. .

Seriously though, maybe now that some AOers have seen the fun we have with our little itty bitty stock rigs, some of the more local ones will come out and play. I have started threads on AO regarding these events every time they came up, but few if anyone, have ever replied, or showed up that I know of. Which, considering that everyone who has posted thus far has either said that they prefer SC or find it just as enjoyable as Semi play, is a bit surprising.

Maybe that will change now.

I've played with SC and Pump markers...but never against other pumpers :)

While it was a whole new ballgame with a lot more thinking and challenge, I can't say if i like it more than Semi play....



Anyhow, tomorrow hopefully with the help of Reo5th and Angry Man a poooor pooor right feed body is gonna be hacked up with a dremel. Hopefully by 6pm when i gotta go to hockey it should have 2 copper tubes somehow attached to the top, with holes on both sides of the body and some kinda bumper in the middle.

Why you ask?

So i can switch clips with my T lock barrel of course!

heheh....should be fun, and especially fun if it actually works.

Both are loads of fun to play, it really depends on what mood I'm in. Since I don't have a pump of my own, I've actually thought about buying a kit for my Cocker so I could switch off.

Ah, it's sooo much fun to play with a little PGP against all the semi's. About 1/2 the time I play, I do so with my PGP. I need more 12 grams....

Today I decided to put my SFL away for about 4 games to play with my PGP. (I was playing against mostly all well rounded paintball players.) After chrono'ing I went onto the field to see horrified eyes behind the players masks. Now, they wern't horrified of my skills that they could not yet see, but they were horrified to see if I would have to be on their team. To make things short I played those games and got more kills or equal amounts of kills as to that of most of the guys there with their electro's. Also I used a total of about 15-20 balls a game rather than 20 balls a second. Overall, my point is that mostly the skill level is the only thing on the field that is going to make you win... not your marker. By the way, I got more kills with my pgp than with my SFL today, hehe.

I just love to play paintball!!! Stock, pump and semi. I actually like pump most. Ill hose and shoot 100 rounds a game, but usually 20 or 30 rpunds will do the trick.

Hey Fred! When we gonna hook up and shoot some more pump? I wanna go paint some punks.
