Just curious how much stuff does everyone take with them when playing. I seem to spend alot of time loading the car.

I usually bring 3 guns each in its own case (main, back up, and my niece has been borrowing one).
Tanks and revys for each.
Freak set
2 masks.
Pack and pods.
Case of paint (more than one if I did the paint run for the guys)
2 of those folding canvas chairs (great investment :))
Small spare parts box
Tools (normal tool box, so technically not paintball specific)
Water spray bottle and shop towels
and a couple of Gatorades.

Is this "normal" or am I over/under equipped?
I think I am over prepared on guns/tanks/revy but with my luck the 1st time I don't have them will be when I need them.

it all fits in the gear bag and i take that so... =/

[oldsoldier]

Yup, I take two of everything. Two guns, complete, my toolbox, mask, pack and pods (tourneys I carry a separate bag with nothing but pods...like 15 of em), and (usually) mask cleaning stuff, and a rag.

[dcmander]

Hmmm.... Weirdos. :)

I take my micromag, my tank, small set of allen wrenches and such (NOT A TOOLBOX! LOL) and a case of paint. :) All fit in a small bag.

I guess going paintballing for 4-8 hours isn't as a big of deal as your "roadtrips." LOL.

OK, the last time (last sunday), i went to Boston PB, this is what i brought. (note someone was borrowing a gun)

In a backpack:
My RT
Stock RTP
Halo
Freak kit

Also:
A huge rolling plastic tool box. 2 tubs that come apart, each with a little tray that sits on top for smaller stuff. Then its got 2 little flip up tool areas on top. 1 in which i keep bottomline screws and the tools and things I need a lot during the day, the other has allen keys.
This thing holds my nitro tanks, barrels, all spare parts, clothes, etc
Then on the front its got one of those little clearplastic organizer things that i keep all my air fittings, classic mag valves (got like 3, needed 1 this weekend :) )

Oh ya, in the toolbox i had another spare mag, classic with euro feed and no frame (Benchy was in the mail, the boo-yah i traded for was yet to arrive.

Then my mask seperately.

I'm usually in the same boat as you, but i came accross this awesome wheeled organizer thing. Sure, it takes 2 hours to setup, and you can never fit all your stuff back in when you wanna go home, but it still rocks! :)

Thank god I coudlnt bring my scuba or my own paint or I woulda got a hernia before I had a chance to play.

For me, there are really three different situations (generaly) that I have different gear setups:
1. The (non-pump) tourney:
a. Primary marker, and a backup
b. craftsman, pull-type tool box with enough parts to just about rebuild either. It also has various cleaning supplies, spray bottle, paper towels. The box is pretty large and also houses several extra tanks and hoppers and loaders. I try to bring as many extra tanks as I can, depending on if I am driving or flying, so that I can get all the "free-refills".
1a. The pump tourney. - these have been mostly local, and my equipment is extremely minimal. one marker, depending on the tourney.a, dn my SC harnes or my assault vest, and the one tank/hopper or SC harness with tubes and a dozen or 20, 12 grams.

2. The day of rec. games.
a. I will bring upwards of 6 markers, so that I can play different kinds of styles and not get any good at any one of them. :) few semi's, and several different pumpers.
b. reduced parts and tools from teh tourney set. Normaly only one extra hopper adn no loaders (except what I carry in my assault vest (50 round loaders). depending on the time of year, I bring one extra HPA or CO2 tank.

3. The scenario game.
a. I try to bring a subset of my rec. setup. depending on if I am a general/leader or a player. I will try to stick with one to three different main markers, and will almost always have at least one backup on me (typicaly holstered). I try not to bring any extra markers that won't get used, so I decide what I wnat and how I will be playing before the game. SOmetimes this is just a pumper, sometimes more.
b. For the scenario, I usualy bring the same parts and tools accessories that I would for a normal day of rec-ball, but it really depends on how many markers I bring. The more I bring, the accessories and parts geometerically increase.

I don't like being caught without. and I don't have aproblem with having more than enough. The last tourney I was at, though, I had to do some severe trimming of the fat since I flew and had shipped my gear in a box. I still had enough room for my primary marker (no backup, since Palmers were going to be there, I didn't think I had anything to worry about), three SC pumpers (I supplied our team with PG's for the SC tourney), two tanks, two hoppers, my tourney REDz harness and kneepads.

3 People and Gear made the rear end of my Caddy almost drag :)

Everyone brings 2-4 guns and air systems and loaders

I'm usually the idiot that has to fix everything so I bring tools - a LOT of tools

Of course my stuff fits into a JT Gearsack and 1 duffle so it's not so bad - Now if I could only find a way to hook my SCUBA to that Gearsack....

[digitard]

lol,
Man I feel underequiped ...

I just take the basics.

1) Emag and components (air, barrels (2), hopper, mask, etc)
2) 2 Allen Wrenches for body strip if needed.
3) Squeegy and Automag parts kit
4) Extra Level 10 parts if some reason needed

Sincerely,
Dave K

I like to load as little as possible so I try to keep everything in one box that I bought from Home Depot. Its about 1'x 2'x 2.5' not exactly sure but comes with a pull out tool tray with a tool drawer. Im able to keep my JT slampack with 4 140 loaders, mask, 2 guns, 2 hpa bottles, 3 barrels, 2 Revvys, batteries, some tools, extra lodaers, and some spare parts. Aside from that, a scuba tank, beverages, sometimes paint cuz some places dont let you bring your own and I will sometimes load the paint into the loaders and revvy so I dont have to bring the box. Most places will have spray bottles and paper towels but I also bring some along. I sit on the gate of my truck so I dont need chairs.
Of course if someone is unequipped then I have to bring extra stuff.

[Telefragged]

Ack, all of you seem to travel pretty heavily. I manage to get by with only e couple things, its just easier.

1. RT Pro Setup (loader and all that trash included)
2. Gloves, mask, hat, etc.
3. AA Toolbox with some seals, wrenches, etc.
4. Dye 4 Pack with filled pods

Thats it, all i carry with me, easy to keep track of, and easy to carry. Its never failed me...
