Shiny Paintball Guns
Sunday June 8, 2008
Call me crazy, but I'm not a big fan of shiny paintball guns. Sure, a custom anodizing job can make your gun unique, but it just doesn't do much for me. I've always thought that guns that showed a little wear and tear really indicate what kind of a player a person is. If you worry more about a scratch than winning a game, you might want to re-organize your priorities in the sport.
While I do have some brightly colored, shiny guns, if you take a close look you'll see that they have more than enough battle scars to show they've actually been used for paintball. I always clean my guns, inside and out, but a scratch from a dive or a ding from a tree only makes me smile. When I'm looking to buy a gun, I always, if possible, opt for a matte or dust coloring and I'm always eager for a gun that's not afraid to get dirty. It's just the kind of person I am.

Well, judging from the sales we see, most would agree. It seems most people still opt for more traditional colors or finishes of paintball guns. On the other hand the bright shiny ones usually are priced high. So the question is if the paintball guns, the shiny ones are not selling because of their price or because of the comments you left?
Sensless blog: virtualy any high end “shiny” marker is available in a black finish. Color/finish on a marker is just another way of making king the gun ‘yours’, just like the addition of rails, sights and other parts make the gun your own as well.
