Here are several tips that will help you have a fun filled day and be safe at the same time!
Goggles--Will Be The Most Important Piece Of Gear You Will Need For Any PaintBall Event.
Here's the most important thing you need to know, Never wear anything but goggle/mask systems
designed specifically for paintball. Never wear any kind of shop goggles, ski goggles, military goggles, motocross goggles,
or any other goggles that are not produced for playing paintball. Anything other than paintball specific goggles will not
have the impact resistance or total eye coverage necessary to stop 13 balls per second coming at your eye or face area.


Paintball Marker Safety Tips:
There are a few basic rules to paintball marker safety. First and foremost, never fire your marker when
others are not wearing the proper paintball approved goggles/mask. When you are in a designated safe zone, or anwhere
that is not the playing fields, make sure to have your barrel plug or barrel sleeve is installed on your barrel properly
for maximum saftey.
An important thing to remember here is that many markers will fire a paintball even after the C02/Compressed
Air system is removed from the marker. It is very extremely important to always wear the proper paintball goggles/mask
when you work on your marker, even if the air source has been removed. Whenever possible, keep your marker uncocked--note:
some markers such as the Automag, are cocked whenever CO2/Compressed Air is connected.
It is critical to chronograph your marker several times each day during game play. Velocities do have a
tendency to fluctuate throughout the day.
Last but not least, alway keep the safety in the "SAFE" position and if your marker has a power feed, keep
it in the "off" mode when not playing the game or disconect the power sorce while cleaning the marker.
