How To Buy The Right Paintball Accessories
It is very important to have the right paintball accessories when playing this game. If you are beginner and you are playing paintball for the first time, here are some of the things that you need to remember when buying paintball accessories.
Buying A Hopper
When it comes to paintball accessories, the hopper is one of the most important ones. A hopper is actually a plastic inverted bottle or stick where you put your paintballs. Without a good hopper, it will be difficult for you to stay long in the game. Most hoppers use gravity to feed the paintballs into your marker but there are also some of them that uses motor power to load your paintball gun. The motorized hopper is important especially if you want to fire your mark rapidly.
Hoppers come is different sizes and shapes. Most of them can hold around 40 to 300 paintballs at one time. When choosing the size of your paintball hopper, you need to consider its weight and size. Note that although big hoppers can hold a lot of paintballs and give you great fire power, big hoppers can also be quite cumbersome. Big hoppers tend to be quite heavy especially when loaded with 300 paintballs so if you don't want to end up hauling a heavy load as you run and tumble around the paintball playing field, you better get a smaller hopper. You can just carry your extra paintballs in your backpack or belt bag and then reload your hopper once it is empty. To load your paintballs faster, you can get one of those ammo loaders to go with your hopper.
Air Supply
Air supplies are very important paintball accessories. Note that your paintball will not function well without enough air supply. Like the hopper, air supply for paintball guns come in different sizes and shapes. There are air supply paintball accessories that you can mount on your mark and there are those that you can carry on backpacks or belt bags. Although air supply paintball accessories that are mounted directly on your mark can give you better fire power, they can make your mark fell heavy thus making it more difficult for you to swing it around and fire. On the other hand, a remote air supply pack that you can carry on a backpack or a belt gives you more freedom of movement. If you want to move easily in the field, you better get a remote air supply pack.
