As long as we get our compressor up and going we should fill to 4500. Sorry that your not a fan, but reballs were the best choice for our field. ---

Not my field. Lol. I would like to see a NYSpeed league get going on weekends or a week night 🙂 I would tolerate my hate for reballs to come out and unload on people. ---

Employees, hmmm. As of now we will have 5 people there. This positions are already filled but if it the field does well we will probably be looking to take on a few more people. Birdman-let me know what you need or take it up to Sports Replay, they do gun repair there. ---

so like after the reballs have been all over the floor, stepped on, bounced off walls etc. the plan is to pick them up and cycle them through guns that can cost as much as a used car? i like the concept but ive never heard of using reballs on a commercial scale like this. sounds fun, good luck! ---

that does sound funny but there are a few fields like ours through out the country (i think we r the only village), and they r very successful and alot of happy ballers (no mess and all the fun). besides…if memory serves me correctly, i think there is/was a rochester field that was letting people collect real paintballs at the end of the night ($5 fee) …people would clean them off and re-use them on their very $$$ guns…now that seems really questionable to me…to re-shoot once shot paintballs … hmmmmmmmm remember…the floor should be semi clean cuz we will be using blowers to collect the reballs and they will be shifted so any debris will be removed. should be awesome…pistols will definately be useful …i cant wait to bust my twins out…lol (2 TPXs) ---

Hahahah someone who invests a couple grand into their paintball gun cant afford to just buy new paint and needs to resort to going and picking up used paintballs? I guess its like the people who put $5,000 rims and sound systems in their $400 beater. ---

I’m sure those guys will gladly sell you new reballs for your $5000 gun. ---

That’s because those people had a deal with NVP where they would clean up the moats and after removing all the shell debris and putting them in acetone so they were basically like seconds. I don’t think they picked them up off the ground covered in dirt that’s gonna scratch the shit out of the barrel on the way out. ---
