Upgrading Paintball

By , About.com Guide   September 29, 2011

Follow me on:

There's just something about upgrading.  Whether a gun needs any improvement or not, I just find it rewarding to do something to it and try to make it better.  Did my gun need a red dot scope?  Absolutely not, but it fit the mil-sim decor.  Does  the new bolt perform better?  Not from what I can tell, but the manufacturer claims it does.  Is my new regulator make my gun more consistent?  If it is, I can't tell a difference.  But none of those questions matter.  The joy comes from planning, tinkering, implementing and then having a customized, upgraded paintball gun that is fun and rewarding all in itself.  I know some upgrades do make a difference, but most don't.  There's just something about upgrading.
