Gotcha beat on the age thing! 54 yrs old here so I'd say you're not coming in late at all.
Been playing
and lurking around p/b forums for a few years now. This one is the best I've found for friendly help and advice. You can be noobish about A5's or even paintball in general and you get treated well. A huge amount of information hides behind the search button here. It really is your best friend for a quick and detailed answer. Welcome to the Forum!
