plugs or condoms? which do you use?

[Load SM5]

Last time I was out I got smacked in the by a flying plug and some paint, in the staging area. A new player in a church group tapped of a few shots on his rental, and the plug shot out with the first one. I don't care if it looks like a 7 year old jock strap, I'd rather have a barrel condom (whatever) than have to deal with another flying plug.

i always keep a condom looped on my pack, so im never with out one. i own 3 and my feild is starting to make them mandatory. theyre replacing the plugs with the condoms.. and they were sellin the perect condition JT plugs for like $1 each.. and ofcourse i HADDA buy some

[SGTKennedy]

when things come flying at me i pick them back up and throw them at whoevers fault it is, i take this policy to the staging area. My History teacher says something about "Ends justifies means." i think it fits in this case.

How much are barrel condoms?

Edit:
wasnt it proven that a condom is better protection than a diaphram years ago? sorry. had to add it it.

i use nitroduck barrel caps

[MikeCouves]

I highly doubt there is one barrel condom in all of Newfoundland, Canada. That's no joke, the PBall industry is really slow here. I should see if a company that makes economy ones will give me some so I can give them out to people and say it is a new IPPL (Internation Paintball Players League) rule, and you have to use one according to insurance companies. I want my paintball to be safe around here.

does anyone know what barrel condoms will fit on the 2" diameter Nova barrel??

I was looking to get one to replace my old barrel plug I got with my old Piranha

and I just have to say that this title got a quick chuckle out of my perverted young mind

I think It will all go to the condoms any way

MrRottenTreats. Barrel condems have plenty of room so just about anyone will fit your barrel.

AntwanRT. Barrel condems run any where between 5.99 - 8.99. I think the Redz are one of the more expensive. In my opinion they look a lot nicer than the nylon bag style and it's also what I use.

My local field also recently changed it's policy. They won't let you in the staging area unless you have a barrel condem. Even if you've got a plug, they make you change it. I think you'll see a lot more fields start to do this because they are much safer.

I payed $3 for my barrel condom, its ugly green and says Warped Sportz on it, but its great.

I love barrel condoms, they make the game easier. When ever you decide to take a dead mans walk casually hang it on your neck and walk down the field. It's great, but may be a controversial topic. All I know is that I have been making 3x the ammount of eleminations ever since I invested in a redz "comfort cover"

Benchmark....

Twist-Lock barrel plugs.

Stays in the barrel no matter how many shots you take.

Easier and faster to put on than a condom.

Fits any bore size barrel.

Doesn't damage the inside of your barrel.

Looks great!! Different colour anno.

Also that Redz jimmie thing that doesn't use strings but just cups onto the barrel, looks like it'll fly off after 1 or more shots.

I prefer to use plugs, as they are easier to use, but I use a condom because it's required by the Polar Bear tournament series here in Minnesota.

[Drizit]

looks like it has strings to me.

also where do you find twist lock plugs?

[st6212]

Benchmark makes them. You can buy direct from them or

Paintballgear sells them as well:
