    I only wish I could shop locally, the only local guy is just to expensive. He wants $25 a bag(!) for brand X paint, but he'll cut you a deal and go to $75 if you buy a whole case. Not to mention he is a Kingman dealer only, so my mag must be a piece of crap since it is not a spider. So far my best experiences online have been with paintballgear.com, good prices and quick turnaround, either online or by phone. 888paintball.com is second, they are owned by National Paintball and this is why they sell 32 Degrees cheaper than most other online sellers(32 degrees is National Paintball owned also).

      Pev's Paintball Baby! They have all the neat new cool stuff... That and the fact that I can go in and shoot the bull with Rob. And their pricing is comparable to most online places if it isnt then it is justified by their lil coupon book and lifetime labor and guarantee. Shop Pev's now featured in Rockville, MD all the way down to Stafford, VA
      This isnt considered spamming is it?

        Big Boys Toys is near me as well. They are one of the places that never have the exact thing I need.
        I recently visited Fox Paintball in Aurora for the first time. That store is huge - has a lot of gear - except what I was looking for.

            I have a lot of nice shops locally, however none of them are very 'mag friendly.

            P&P- Makers of the SuperCocker: Mostly overpriced Dye stuff becuase they "Custom" Annodize just about everything themselves. Sometimes they're tolerable. I hear they do some real nice work with cockers. ActionVillage resells some of their products. Kidna snooty staff.

            Futureball Paintball- Home of Mantis Gear: Pretty nice stores, they operate an indoor field and an outdoor field, their prices are not bad, but they too don't have a lot of 'mag stuff. Nice staff.

            Killer Paintball- Little store that opened up recently: I like this store, the guy Ken that runs it is pretty nice, and he'll do his best not to rip you off. Great staff!

            All of these stores are in the Metro Detroit area, there are a few more, but I haven't been to them.

            If anyone wants more info on these stores, let me know.

              my 2 cents

              bbtpaintball.com - some operators have bad attitudes, but fairly good business

              888paintball.com - decent

              paintball-paradise.com - good, but no mag stuff

              skanline.com - good

              paintballgear.com - no problems yet

              copaintball.com - good

                      I do a lot of business with paintballgear.com and this guy I know. I buy paint,air, and trinket type stuff(oil, nipple caps, tank covers, fittings,squeegies etc) from my local shop. I know everyone says shop local, but with an AGD gun I have confidence that it will work and not need to be teched by someone. Furthermore I don't have a Rob or any other mag god around so I can fix just about as much as a guy in the store can. I can't airsmith but I would send my equipment to AGD for any cutting/or very fine adjustments because they are the ONLY ones that I have full faith in. Furthermore I work too hard to pay more money for the same things.

                        Well... for some strange reason I shop at paintball-online.com I have ordered from paintball-discounters, paintballgear and bbtoys in the past, however.
