random paintball questions...

Technically, the smallest caliber paintballs would be the 6mm (.24 caliber) paintballs for airsoft guns, then the .40 caliber ones used in blowguns, the .50's used in the 3357, the .62's for the SMG-60, and the smallest ones sold as .68 caliber that I've used are made by Draxxus.

what is the smallest bore?

Long time ago Crossman made a .50 cal pistol that look like a revolver and I believe loaded liek one to. So the paintballs were .50 caliber.

I have seen paintballs hit each other in the air...it was shortly after I started playing, me and some friends were in the woods, and one of them opened up on me with a 98C RT. I shot back with my kicka$$ spyder agressor, and hit one of his balls in the air...oh, and about 3/1000s of a second after that I got hit about 15 times...hey, when you're a newb in the woods and an RT tippy opens up on you for the first time, it's scary bizness !

I think they were .697, if you're referring to the LAPCO barrels made for the Galactic Z-body.

what is the proper way to spell e mag? is there a space? no space? hyphen?
Emag, E-Mag, or E Mag works. As long as there's an E and a Mag.

what was the first semiautomatic paintball gun?
Glenn Palmer's Camille, although Bud Orr claims his autococker to be the first. Glenn made the Camille about a year before Bud, and even showed him how he did it, which sort of prooves that Glenn was first anyways.

is 1,000 too much to spend on a gun? (kind of an opinion though...)
If you're into tournament paintball, then $1000 is a small fraction of the costs to play and everything. May as well.

ever seen paintballs hit eachother in the air?
Yes, I broke a ball in my classic mag and saw two paintballs hit eachother because they curved a tad.

what is the biggerst size made bore?
The Freak has the largest bore with the .695 I believe.

how is tournament paintball scored?
Depends on the tournament

Is there annyone on this foru that has never owned an autromag of some kind?
Tons of them.
