45 vs Y/Z angle vs Vert frames

[trains are bad]

Exactly. You people act like you are supposed to close your left eye and sight down the barrel like you are hunting deer

I always shoot with both eyes open, even with scoped rifles.

And 'pwned' is a word.

I will say they're being a bit harsh, but using words like "You people" never bring out the best in "us people".

Take a deep breath... count to 10 and walk away before its too late. Its a discussion. It's not worth getting banned over. Think about it...

No more warnings.

Lets face facts, if it's made in one frame design it is very unlikely to be either a Y or Z.

They want this to be popular and make them money and although both the Y and Z have their rabid supporters, a lot of people would see it and think 'eww', wheras the majority of players would happily use a 90 degree or .45 frame.

My order of preference is pretty much identical to Cryers - my vote went to the vert/90 frame purely on aesthetic grounds.

aesthetically, I like the 45's slightly better than the verts... Its a real tought toss up...

My preferences are based on the assumtion the shooting platform incorporates an Electronic trigger... However, once I think about it, I think I'd have similar preferances regarding mech triggers, although I've never used a mech vert frame...

my preferences
Z, 45, vert, then Y. i've never used a vert, I just HATED the Y-grip but I LOVE the Z-grip, go figure.

Space frame.

Anything other than a 45, i'll say it that way. The 45 grip is the most unnatural one for paintball. Paintball markers are not handguns. If it was a handgun then the 45 would be perfect.

Most cases, yes.

I'm perfectly comfortable using a 45 when I use a rail. That puts the gun out far enough to where its more ergonomically correct.

As for the pointing thing, depending on where your front grip frame is, you can actually use that hand to point instead. The best way is to actually run your index finger down the side of your marker, using the middle finger on your shooting hand to fire. Ideally, you could use both, but then you're runing around shooting everybody the "Buddy Christ."



edit: egh. I could have sworn the other hand was pointing...

[Cryer]

Thats kinda what I do...

When I walk my trigger in game, I'll usually use my middle and ring fingers and have my pointer down the body of the gun. Just seems more natural... Plus its faster for me
