How much does it hurt to be shot by a Paintball gun around 15-20 feet?
Just wondering lol. -Crey
Well Crey, it really depends on the part of your body you were hit on and the amount of clothing you are wearing.
I have been playing for 21 years at this point and I played tournaments for most of that time. Much of my career was spent as a front player and as such there is probably no square inch of my body that has not been blasted by a paintball at close range. So with all of that out of the way.
My three worst places to get shot at close range.
3) The pinkie… Jumping jeebus on a Popsicle stick. This is painful and can actually break your finger. I cannot describe how much I hate getting hit in the pinkie…
2) The base of your neck right by the collar bone. Great koogley moogley, this one is a serious shock to the system, made me feel dizzy and gave me a head full of stars.
1) The junk, balls, testicles, what ever you want to call it, getting shot here is lights out suck.
For the most part you won’t even notice because of all the adrenaline in your system, and the fact that most shots at this range are mask, gun or pack shots. But on the rare occasion you take one to any of these three body parts, well it sucks.
What paintball gun should I get?
I’m just starting and the price has to be under 130 dollars. I’m looking to get the us army alpha black tactical edition and what is e-grip. Thanks - Hunter.
Hunter this is a very common question and I wrote a post about the Best Paintball Gun for a beginner that you should check out.
What it really comes down to is getting one you are comfortable with, and since you have one that excites you get the gun you want, no reason not to.
An E-Grip replaces the mechanical trigger with an electronic one. So rather than your trigger pull acting as a lever that releases the sear and thus the hammer, leading to the paintball gun shooting, in an e-grip you pulling the trigger clicks an electronic switch which then causes a solenoid to release the sear. The benefits are many. You can have MANY firing modes, like 3 round burst, full auto, semi, etc. The trigger pull is MUCH smaller and lighter allowing far greater rate of fire with the same marker.

Paintball Gun Man LIVES!
Paintball Gun Man.com is long past due. A decade ago I ran oddballsports.com then 24-7paintball.com and later paintballbuzz.com. Each of those sites was around for several years, but were all about my paintball team at the time or a paint ball business I was running. So as those businesses and teams destinies flowed, so did the various sites. If only I had held onto several of those sites rather than letting them fade away, ah but hindsigt is always 20/20 and there is no way to revisit the past.
Now, Paintball Gun Man.com is devoted to my favorite part of the great paintball adventure, GEAR. I love paintball guns, the technology, the upgrades, the design, everything there is about the Gear is… awesome. I have always been a gear hound, and with paintball the addiction leaped to new heights. At one time I had over 20 top end paintball guns, 50 barrels and untold number of masks, jerseys, hoppers, gloves etc. I like aspects of most paintball guns but my all time favorite is still the Worr Games KarnivOrr Autococker. you’ll notice that just about every picture of me playing, I am using one variant of the autococker or another. However in my time I have owned most of the top paintball markers, from the Phantom to Dark Angels and Ego’s.
From time to time I might throw some tactics advice in, and point to other sites. I also like to post interesting paintball videos, but what I really want to accomplish with Paintball Gun Man.com, is researching and displaying the best paintball equipment available in the world today. And I don’t mean just the high end paint hoses. I will be creating videos where I will give my opinions on quality, durability, maintenance, features, you name it. And because I am a great guy, I’ll point you to the best deals that I find, and any contests or give-aways I come across.
And yes that is a picture of me, it was taken at the 2002 Las Vegas PanAM and is courtesy of Warpig.com. Bill Mills from Warpig took many pictures of me throughout the years and has always had great content. If you don’t already know Warpig.com you need to go spend some time there.
I hope that my paintball gun reviews, videos and content are something that you find compelled to return to, and frequent Paintball Gun Man.com.
