What Bod said about buying on site
Another problem with ordering online is what happens to them along the way, it’s added cost, via particular couriers willing to transport boxes of paint, and in uncontrolled conditions
Basic cheap paint tends to be tougher, but variable in shape/size in a...
Ditto on the recommendation.
£5 for a Titan Wolf aluminium card.
Gold ones for UKPSF members with 5 year memberships, Silver for 1 year memberships

The quick and dirty route would be a nut & bolt from your local hardware place
You may get some luck by messaging or speaking to some UK retailers as they may be able to get them from suppliers
Super5ives have some knowledge on Empires so could be a useful start
(These pics just for my reference)
This will happen on a case by case basis with each seller and may depend on the item and value.
Once you have access you can ask the particular individual.
I recommend that you take into account the time and expense of international postage, ensuring that tracking and insurance are appropriate...
New members privileges are restricted and cannot post in the classifieds areas or send private messages.
The privilege is gained by making approx 20 posts over about 2 weeks.

We clearly know when...
As above, it’s possible with a stirrup pump and they are at reasonable prices now
Do make sure that it’s a high pressure stirrup pump and has a filter (some are with, most without but they can be added)
Into an air cylinder there is the larger capacity so you need to get a higher quantity of...
I still would have had my egg except I finally killed it, I’ve a Ricochet or two somewhere and a couple of Halos
I moved over to Rotors as everyone else went to Spires etc
There’s no true value in them, but someone old sometimes likes a bit of nostalgia and there is the non cash significant...
I now use the exalt freak case for my inserts but I also have a set of ‘tool folders’ for my various barrels and I was using them for the freak inserts
The screenshots are not the ones I have, but are a rough guide. I think mine were from Toolstation or screw fix
Mine have lots of elastic...
I believe they are in Central/Eastern Europe
There are a few ‘curious’ items being used in the big scenario games.
If you’re looking for an interesting stag then Armourgeddon in the midlands do tank vs tank paintball with ping pong balls
Enjoy the browsing - but treat it like window shopping :
Gaze upon the shiney
Gaze upon the other shiney
Gaze upon more shiney
Then when you’ve gained the privileges you have seen it all and don’t buy the first shiney thing you saw.
Alternatively you buy everything you’ve been looking at then...
You will need to have been a member for 2 weeks and make approx 20 posts contributing to the forum - this also helps avoid new players buying the first shiney thing, and to also browse & get some discussion in to point to what sorts of gear would suit their interests
If you must have an item...

There was a lemmings paintball game and a few first person shooters, such as Digital Paint
https://www.digitalpaint.org/
Nintendo Goldeneye has a paintball mode
My things outside of paintball:
Generally anything that involves being in a field socially:
There’s the social side of big game paintball, (which is of course in paintball but out of playing)
From watching some mates in tournaments I widened my paintball interests to watching if I have an...
So many to choose from - and we all have different opinions
But I would say not to spend too much up front
(Too much depends on your financial situation of course)
Any electric gun in the last decade can hold its own, and pretty much the same could be said for most mechanicals
A lot of us...
Basically they are both about shooting each other for fun.
Airsoft guns shoot 6mm plastic BBs, and began due to gun laws in Asia
(The first airsoft guns were model kits that fired plastic pellets shaped like airgun pellets)
Paintball guns shoot gelatine balls with a non toxic, washable liquid...
They would not be able to recertify a US DOT paintball cylinder to be used in the UK, it needs either the TPED Pi marking, or the newer international UN ISO 11119
The standards marked by the manufacturer show that a cylinder meets the relevant standards, hydro testing demonstrates that the...
That should be the pin where you would normally have a hammer on a revolver.
When the pistol is gassed up the pin will pop out, and I think if you press it then it will discharge
