    Brass Eagle Trying To Hide THere Logo

    Hey, I just took a drive to wally world and found some new paint BLUE STEEL, Heck it was 20 for 1000. So i checked it over and found the makers BEI . HMMMM who could this be. Brass Eagle. But wait didnt they used to have those huge logos with and eagle and Brass Eagle writin all over it. LOL. I guess they figured that hiding the logo would make a impact on there sells. So i decided to skip BLUE STEEL and look around. The prices of paint at wallmart is unbelievable. They were selling paintballs for way to much. 27 a thousand. for stuff I havnt heard of. Well so i go back and have my freinds mom buy me paint since she gets 10 percent of at walmart. She comes home with after burner. I break a ball and found the most chunkyist fill every. Shure hellfire is the thickest but afterburner is chunky. Never saw chunky paint. Well this stuff shot well in my gun and I couldnt believe that it was made by brasseagle. Go Check it out. Has anybody tryed bluesteel

    I have shot worse paint than brass eagle. If you get a good batch of BE it actually shoots ok.

      couple things:

      1) BE knows that 95% of people who buy their paint at wally have no idea that the whole internet pb community hates BE and thus couldnt care less whether they know its BE paint or not

      2) BE paint, when brand new, is identical to Zap (at the moment) and so its not bad paint. Its just that when ANY paint sits on a wally world shelf for over a year and a half, it will turn crappy

      3) $27 for 1000 balls is DAMN GOOD. I dont know a field around here that sells seconds for less than $40 for 1000 balls

        Wow
        I guess I should be happy that I'm paying 50 for 2000.

          I brought some of the blue paint.

          The Draxus and sever paint at Spplat had the worst shells ever. I think they were made of paper.

          The fill on the Draxus paint was good but the shells...

          Even those who had a level ten were breaking paint. Total crap.

            I bought Brass Eagle one day at Walmart, when i owned a mag, and it shot great. I'm dead serious. I broke one ball out of 2000. I most have gotten a fresh batch or somethin

              Really?

              I pay $35 per case for Midnight at NPS. At Paintball Invasion(field), I pay $50 per case for Severe.

                  Paying 100 dollars for a case of inferno at IAO will really make you appreciate 60 dollar cases of paint.

                      ok...so all my fields suck....most charge $25/500 for a bag of reasonable stuff.

                      and IAO will certainly make you appreciate low priced paint

                        if you hafta pay like 80/100 per case why dont u buy it online?

                        I could prolly have some fresh stuff dropshipped to you from PMI for like 50 if u wanted.

                          Well, I for one have nothing but positive things to say about that Severe paint, it shot very well. I had no chops, and it flew straight and went exactly where I wanted it.

                            I had no complaints with the Draxus either. My Mag, cocker and pump shot it fine all weekend with only one barrel break during the last shoot out.

                              Most fields have "field paint only" rules. So they can jack the price up and actually make a profit.

                              Some fields jack it up a little much. There's one around here that costs ~$100 for a case... Most fields I play at charge $80, or if I'm part of the field team a whopping $5 discount to $75!!! WOW!

                              I'm not a fan of fields jacking the prices.
