Paintball
equipment varies depending on the type of paintball game being played
and the skill level of those playing. Every player, however, requires
three basic pieces of equipment:
Mask:
The most important thing when you want to play paintball.
Complete paintball marker:
Markers usually also require some sort of loader/hopper and propellant to work (CO2 or compressed air).
Paintballs:
To eliminate other players.
A full set of paintball gear may cost anywhere from under $100 to
several thousand USD, depending on the equipment. Some players may
invest hundreds of dollars in equipment to improve accuracy, rate of
fire, weight, reliability, comfort, or aesthetics. Instead of
purchasing their gear, occasional players may instead rent equipment
from a paintball facility for about $10-$80 USD per day.
There are three common sizes of CO2 tanks. Which are 9 oz, 12 oz and
the 20 oz. The bigger 20 oz tanks can fire 500 to 1500 shots depending
on the efficiency of the marker.
