Get the Best Paintball Gun

By Crystal Jennings

We can no longer deny the growing popularity of the sport called paintball. It was first introduced in the seventies but now, it is already a favorite competitive professional sport. It can be played indoors or outdoors and is actually, according to insurance statistics, one of the safest sports.

Paintball guns are also known as markers by some. The most conventional version was the pump action gun that needs manual cocking. However, this version makes the game slower and later evolved into auto cocker guns that has greater speed of delivering paintballs.

Other versions of paintball guns that have been introduced are the automatic, semi-automatic, sniper rifles and electronic guns. You can get them in camouflage or in different colors. The barrels of these guns are also elongated, further increasing the accuracy of their shooting.

Military replicas were also manufactured. These guns are perfect for real combat aficionados. They are known for their accuracy, weight, speed, rate of fire and gas usage.

Highly sensitive triggers are also considered as the main features of the semi-automatic and automatic paintball guns. These guns, with their incredibly fast speed, are considered as great for serious players. If you're still a beginner, you can choose a cheaper alternative endowed with upgrade capability and cosmetic add-ons.

Several paintball guns are now upgraded versions of the ones manufactured before. These upgrades may be in the form of an additional trigger, a bigger hopper, or additional aiming cosmetics. You can also upgrade your own paintball gun and perhaps, put laser on it for stronger accuracy.

Together with the breakthroughs in technology, there were also innovations in paintball guns. Many paintball guns now have an LCD panel, aside from hair triggers, more exact velocities, programmable firing modes, and lower gas pressure. Upgrading your paintball guns may be more costly but will end up being more beneficial to you, particularly in the game.
