Thanks!
They all got their eyes fixed a yellow milled cocker with the oracle parts (at IAO the Worr guys were calling it the Custom Cocker, I don't know what they're calling it now). It was on sale for $1,300 and all the kids were begging their mom for it because they wanted the "yellow" one. One kid was allowed to get that so the other ones had to split up an 03' shocker, a Matrix, and one kid got a Spyder (shutter I think) because he liked the green. Then he got an E-mag too so he spent as much as the other kids (the E-Mag now being the only high end gun left on the rack).
Don't you know, it has to all be equal now a days or it is not "fair"
They were racing around the store just grabbing this and that and when all was said and done their mom must have charged 7 or 8 grand on her credit card before heading out in her Lexus SUV.
The kids didn't even know what the guns were called. They had no idea what they were buying, they just knew to buy the expensive ones. I'm all for the sport growing and including all ages and all kinds of people, but they didn't know the name of their guns!
I smell a mastercard commercial here:
Having Mommy buy you a Complete Paintball set up:
$100
The latest, greatest marker out:
$1300
Getting owned the first time you walk on the field because you have NO CLUE what you are doing:
Priceless!
