Hi shooters,
As promised, details:
Half a year ago I used the following link
http://dolphin.upenn.edu/~paintbal/Fields.html to read reviews
from Penn University Paint-ball club about various companies/fields.
Actually I used it as a guide and picked up the following company:
http://www.pocolocopaintball.com/ I was happy with them and I don't
see any reason not to choose them again.
The place is located between Norristown and Pottstown. Visit the site
for detailed information and driving directions.
Their prices look attractive and for $50 (package #2 ($25) + pump up
offer ($25)) each of us gets 4 hours on a field, semi-auto rifle (you
don't wanna have a pump gun!), 500 paint balls and camo (best value).
CO2 refills are free. Of course, googles with face mask icluded. You
can pay $25 and get the same but no camo and only 100 paint balls.
Check the site for packages/upgrades/etc.
They have some coupons in Clipper Magazine and I would appreciate if
someone could get me a copy.
If you have a gun the game will cost you approx. $25 less.
Each game lasts about 20 min. and during those 4 hours we'll be able
to get 6-8 games and shoot about 700 paint balls. So we lack 200 pb
each. To protect ourselves from ammo-less death we can buy several pb
cases (1000pb) for $60 each and split it, see details on the site. Or
you can buy pb's by a 100 for $8. Add pizza and beer and you'll get an
idea how much it will actually cost you. ;) Well, you can subtract
beer now - they don't allow alcohol but they sell pizza. You can bring
your food too.
They require NON-REFUNDABLE $25 deposit 2 weeks before the game,
otherwise they can give our place out.
IMPORTANT: THE OTHER PERSON CANNOT PLAY INSTEAD OF YOU. IF YOU PAYED
DEPOSIT AND ARE NOT COMING - THE MONEY IS LOST.
Well, this is what they claim. I didn't see they checked/compared
anyone ID's so I'd guess if you paid and are not coming the other
person can use your deposit to play.
They require your car keys or ID as deposit for a gun.
They accept major credit cards and checks. But they suggest to get
deposit from the organizer. So I'd suggest you do the following: make
your checks payable to Poco Loco Paintball and send/give them to me.
You can make them payable to me, of course, but in this case $150
processing fee will apply. Just kidding :). If you'd like to pay over
the phone - their number is: 800-752-7626. And please let me know if
you paid that way.
The time slots are: 8am-12pm, 11am-3pm, 12pm-4pm, 1pm-5pm and we are
required to show up 1 hr and 15 min BEFORE the beginning. I.e 6:45am
for 8-12 slot, etc.
I pre-booked April 8th, Saturday 11-3 slot so far, show up time
9:45am. If it will be raining we have a right to pick up any other day
during a year period. If you think we should choose another day -
throw your suggestions in.
IMPORTANT: IF I DON'T GET YOUR CHECKS/YOU DON'T PAY BY PHONE BY MARCH
23rd - YOU ARE OUT!!!
Any objections/suggestions/ideas?
IMPORTANT: PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO RESPOND TO THIS MESSAGE SO I KNOW
YOU CHECKED YOUR CALENDAR AND ARE IN.
We get our own field if we have a team of 30+ people. So if you know
someone with shooting instincts - pass this message on.
If you have any questions - do not hesitate to contact me at
mailto:hash1024@yahoo.com
Alex.

Before the accident, I could not even spell UNIX

will definitely give you a ride.
