Terms and terminology

[Tom Tom]

I see more and more people asking what different phrases and bits in paintball mean so this thread aims to help out newbies, If you hear something put it up and hopefully it will get answers.

so to start:

Drop Forward: The piece of metal on the bottom of the grip frame that "drops" the gas bottle forward making your marker more compact and helps keep a player tight in his bumker.

Bunker: What you hide behind

Grip Frame: the handle you hold which has the trigger on it.

Bolt: the bit in the marker that moves forward and backwards to move the paintball out the end of the barrell.

Reg: The Regulator, this regulates the flow of gas going into the marker.

foregrip :The stick you hold with your other hand(many times the reg. plays this role)

Its Fncked: It probably still works if some one with a little bit of patience looks at it and presses one button.

Its really Fncked: You are just getting angry and not helping the guy with patience find that button.
