There was a poll on here awhile ago that asked how old everyone was. But being a younger player I am often surprised to see myself running the show. So I was wondering how long everyone has been playin paintball and shooting pump guns in your backyard doesn't count.

This could REALLY use a poll.............
*EDIT* Cool, poll now up!

I've been playing for six years. Ever since I was in 7th grade.

I've been playin for 4 but wow 11 years I wonder whos played longer

I feel kind of old here, seeing the ages of some of the players.

I have been playing ever since the days of the Nelspot 007, and the Splatmaster.......wow

So, I guess I have been playing since the early 1980's

I also remember some very strange things that companies wanted to develop for paintball: the paint knife, for hand to hand combat; paintball sabot launchers (though now it is a fairly common thing); and my favorite, the fully automatic paintball marker...nuff said.

I just started with my 14 year old son this last Christmas. Between the two of us, we have 2 Xtras, 2 Pilots and my A5! It was my wife's idea! Cool huh?
