    first mag

    ahh yes, my first mag also had the stainless insert, with the surgical tubing nubs. The first time I saw a automag was on a cold day in 87, or maybe 88, We never laughed so hard, one minute Joe was up and shooting, the next minute he was going kooosh, koooosh, (aka) liquid, liquid.

      Oldtimers....

      Ahh, yes

      I played my first game of paintball in March, 1986.

      22 guys running around on some rented woodlands with Uvex safety goggles, heavy PGP pistols (some actually had pumps on them!), and $1.25 tubes of paint (10 rounds).

      Been hooked ever since......

      That was almost 17 years ago now.
      Sure have seen a lot of changes in the sport since then, things come and things go....

        A little later than I expected, but here are a few of my older pics...
        Two from the summer of 91:


        Of the people in this pic only me (2nd from left) and my brother (2nd from right) are still playing. He still uses the BE Nightmare he is holding in that photo!



        And two from the summer of 95:

          Nice Pict Jeff

          Were they taken at Paintstorm in Carleton Place. The field looks familiar.

          Just in case It's Mike T

            Hey Mike!

            The top two pictures were taken at the first field to open in my hometown of Happy Valley, Labrador.

            The next two were taken in St John's, Newfoundland, at Frontline Paintball.

              Am I an old school player?

              I can remember the last time I played with my SMG-68 and Splatmaster for a side arm. The only thing is that it was last October, I'm 20 years old and been playing for 3.

                    Yes it's british camo, the best there is in my opinion (at least for where I play). I have a couple old JT masks from the mid '80s, but I think I'll stick with my new one.
                    The picture is from a senerio game at Flagswipe Paintball in southwestern Ontario.

                    There's usually a couple other people with old guns there for the big games. One time a group of 6 guys showed up with kp rifle in various set-ups, another with a Brass Eagle Nightmare SB. It's sort of fun talking to people about how they use to have guns like the ones I own, or tell people that my SMG costs more than their Cocker!
                    Here's a pic from left to right me, my friend and my brother on the same day.

                      This April will mark 8 years of me playing. lol.

                      I remember my first time really well. I got to try out a mag and a cocker....WOW! The cocker was a modified Sniper 2 actually with Nitroduck air and an old BOA brass barrel with lots of porting. I really enjoyed my first day.
