Now that I think about it, I bet those who play a lot of paintball would be good in a real firefight. They're used to having to take cover and avoid getting shot and return fire. I need to play more!

I love to play but, I suck! I need a better barrel. I have no range with mine and my opponents can just pick me off while I'm lobbing paint at their feet!

Interestingly enough, even if it is made illegal , here in the States Knowing how to, or have the plans to do it, can not be made illegal. (Unless we get back to burning books)

When I read the article the first thought that popped into my head was, "Have they never heard of zip guns?"

This legislation is ready to go, it is just on hold until the next tragedy. Gun control advocates realize they need fresh victims to create another very brief window of time where the public may support it, regardless of how ineffective it would be. Of course those in favor of gun rights are portrayed as the fear mongers.

I agree with you! it could just as easily be fabricated out of past flat stock. Oh unless they are printing rifling in the barrel it is a AOW here in the states.
