yes i gotta admit paintball ain't cheap
playing in tourneys makes the paint you buy alot cheap (wholesale prices) but the catch is you usually go through a huge amount!
there is usually an entry fee as well. the 5-man tourneys are more fun and the entry fee is pretty low and u generally use alot less paint than in a pro-series.
yes... the semi-auto laws in nsw are crap and it is ridiculous that they apply to paintball.
plans are afoot and hopefully some changes to the law will be forthcoming.
you are absolutely right about fields... if they had semis before the law was passed they can keep/maintain them but not add more to their licence.
again these laws may be changing in the near future... to reflect laws in some other states.
markers (guns) are always available for hire from a field... private ownership is prohibited for semis but if you have a good relationship with a field (as most pro teams do) the field can 'own' your marker and store it for your personal use.
drop in to a tourney and check it out
