yeee ha! i'm the 2nd shooter at V5.
congrats zzub

if you are willing to come to sungai petani, kedah, there is a speedball field inside carnival waterpark vicinity. they have various packages even one that includes free pass to enter the waterpark. it is just beside kelab cinta sayang. i'm not sure about the rate. i oso dun have the contact number...sorry. went there to have a look see once. the guy manning the place seemed friendly. i think they use azodin kaos as house markers. no worries, noobs will be briefed on how to use the facilities and some basics of speedball playing.

any tips? pm pls

so how's WCA for everyone of you thats been there?

it was a bit of a letdown for me actually . to me, only the Dye booth was worth mentioning. the older version jerseys and pants were reasonably priced. PMR 2010 was also a steal at RM1.2 K or something. They proly realized that they cannot keep on 'scalping' the customers by doing minor incremental improvement and declaring it's a new version marker year in year out.

Napshot and ProPaintball booth has lotsa stuff but i'm not sure whether they really priced them differently from the usual time.

Maybe i missed a lot of the offers coz i went there on thursday and friday. the only positive thing out of my WCA visit(indirectly) is that i will proly be able to get my marker by this weekend if everything goes as planned .

so, tell us more about the stuff that you guyz bought at WCA.

wow! that's maybe a saving of more than RM1K? dunno about TM15 but i thought when i look at the empire prophecy price tag..it showed RM1K, so i didn't bother asking further . another thing i did notice was, many stuff were without price tags. they did this on purpose or what?
well...congrats anyway on your 'capture' and may you capture more enemies with your new TM15 and new loader...

anybody else wud like to share their experience?

too bad i came back north on saturday. learnt my lesson. next time will go on the last 2 days. the C9 kids pants were selling at RM250 when i checked on friday . if i had known i would have given some money for you to get them for my kid.

anyone who knows where to get or interested to sell kids paintball pants n jersey(of coz with reasonable price la) pls PM me. used ok.

should proly get my marker within this week....
maybe next time i will join you at PISA bro!

ya lor! my fear was, if i went there too late, things will be gone but if went too early price is still expensive.
now very smart oledi . next year will bring sleeping bag n sleep near the booth from thursday till sunday

indoor with A/C some more....sure syiok punya. well thats what i saw in the draft version of the preview video anyway. the english narration and montage need some correction for international consumption but...who am i to complaint.
hey badman! can you finally tell what brand izzit?

the plan was to get it by this week but hit a bit of a snag. so, now it's gonna be sometime next week. will proly break the marker 'virginity' at YSB Paintball in alor star next weekend. some of the young veteran players have invited me as their target practice....
will surely join ur game sometime... ...if u can ajak ollie main kat pisa..amacam?

to bro badman, i_love_japan & putrakorn,

finally got my etek3 yesterday...pheeew..after all this while. felt like circumstances is conspiring against me in preventing me from getting my marker. tried to do breaking in yesterday but alas...just my luck again i suppose, i couldn't get a refill for my HPA tank. the local speedball field ran out of supply just at the right moment. been having one of 'those days' on a daily basis i guess.
anyway, i am currently struggling to read and understand the manual.
ready or not ballerz, here i come!

oh yeah just another thing, got the marker from a local distributor. support your local paintball scene ya!

whooeeii! finally got to test fire my etek3 today. had a 1 on 1 with a young veteran. we played at Sabil Paintball in SP. started playing after work..proly from 6:30 till 7:15pm. the bros at Sabil were very accommodative although it was past their operating hours. thanks guys.

used about 600~700 pellets between us. it was fun but i felt it was over too soon. my opponent was using a mechanical marker. i think he was hit only once (proly by a stray pellet from me ) whereas i was hit maybe more than 20 times...i dunno. i got hit mostly on my loader. one on my elbow and one just above the hairline (free minyak rambut yey!)

hmm...need to do post mortem
1) need to stop spraying all over the place - poor balance, poor aim
2) the tank was slipping from my shoulder all the time - need to get tank cover with rubber end
3) need to tilt the loader inwards and tuck-in my elbow
4) i 'pancit' just before the end of the last game - need to improve fitness
5) was shooting only with my left trigger hand (me lefty)- need to learn how to shift to right and back

the field condition did not help much coz certain areas were ankle deep with water puddles. but all in all i had great fun. today's event should contain my craving for the adrenalin fix for another two weeks...i hope .

hi guys! happy new year and happy shooting! since we are on the subject, I wud like to ask something like a hypothetical question.

Q1 : Say you have this guy who owns 2 or 3 markers, took his 2 children complete with their safety gear, drove to a secluded bush/jungle/wooded area and starts to have some family outing paintball practice....will they get into trouble?

Q2 : You have another guy that has a huge backyard which he converts into a CQB field, then he invites his friend for a shootout...will they be in trouble?

Honest and straight answers are welcome but since I'm a straight guy with a sense of humour, not so straight answers from not so straight guys/gals are oso welcome...he he

Do you guys know of any MIBs or criminal lawyers who are active paintballerz? Maybe we can appoint these guyz as unofficial law guides in the forum?

thanks zzub n badman!
i suppose, to be on the safe side, we shud just go to a licensed paintball field and go bonkerz there ya....

cheer up friend! it's not just you....i've waited almost 5 months...still waiting...

hey everyone!

been a while since i've posted here. i am not getting enuff paintballing time up here in the north...no newbie kaki that i know of who's playing in the SP area if you guys know of anyone that might need training buddies in SP please do inform.

one other thing...does anyone here know when the Dangerous Power E1 is coming to our shores and how much it might cost here? It's selling at USD209 in the States.

Thanks!

thanks amur! does splatzone have a website? tried searching but couldn't find it.
is there any proshop in malaysia that operates similarly to ansgear or zephyr or pbnation where we can order online using plastic money?

Added on March 28, 2011, 1:05 pmcorrect correct correct......err kinda remind me of someone...but anywayz defaeco is right, the E1 is an entry level gun. should be cheaper. i have this fetish about small, sexy, lightweight and beautiful markers....minor performance flaws(except reliability & durability) are some of the trade off that i might have to live with...he he . has the E1 landed on our shores?

hey guys! need some info regarding pellets.

so here goes...me and some of the guys are planning to play this coming june. problems is my friends are concerned about the material of the shell and filling for the pellets available at this particular field. only DRAXXUS pellets are available.

the shell and the paint for DRAXXUS pellets, are the material of animal or vegetable origin? if from animal, is it from pigs (no offence ok?)? my friends are devout muslims.

thanks in advance!

hey guys! it's been more than a year since i last logged on here.

i have just 4 questions

a) have anyone here bought , use or tried out the Dangerous Power E1? I heard the price is not too expensive but unsure about the performance and reliability. where can one get it?

b) if i were to purchase an entry mechanical speedball marker, usually people will recommend either Azodin Kaos or Spyder. are there other options?

c) does anyone here knows of any speedball mechanical marker that has the same size, weight and profile to Invert Mini or DP E1?

d) if i were to buy a marker in langkawi during the World Cup Asia 2011, will I be able to get it through the customs without hassle?


appreciate your input guys and otais

thanks bro zzub for the input.

just to check....Etek and Proto Rail, are they mechanical markers ie can i use them in stock and D4 tourneys?

DP E1 : i am sooo in loove with the looks, i am contemplating whether to look the other way about it's weaknesses as long as it's durable. someone said "if your girlfriend is a supermodel, you might have to ignore the diva behaviour!"
