i used to paintball, but some kid on my street kept to shooting at me when i would walk down the street for no reason , so i casually walked past and when he shot at me i had my spud gun with a burst disk( no ammo) and shot it at the ground, it was loud enough that he hasnt messed with me since.

they can be a waste because if you use cheap PB's they'll just bust.

heh, parents can be a bit confusing. my mom doesnt like guns, but she can shoot anything and hit the target. my dad used to not like guns, till i took him shooting one day, now he's goin to gunshows with me and stuff. they seem to have accepted its something i like to do, they're even letting me build guns now, my first project is to build an AR-15 rifle.

It is a common misconseption that the flatline breaks balls. I have had that gun for a while now, probably played 50 games with it and only had one break. The barrel dosnt cause breaks it is the bolt closing on a paintball only halfway in there that makes it break.
