Black Shell & Black Paint??? Can it be acquired?

[GOVRegulator]

I would like to buy black paintballs with black paint. Does anyone know a way to order something like that?

Thanks,

I can understand a black shell, but why black paint?

[thermus117]

Its my understanding that black shelled paint doesn't sell well, because the Eyes on hoppers and such don't pick up on it. I may be wrong though.

Nope your right... Black paint will turn most Halos into blenders, I have seen black shells but I am not sure about black fill. Why would you want it anyway? The brighter the fill the easier it is to see it break on your opponent...

This place claims to have paintballs that have a black fill. Check the sixth down on the list. I'm a bit suspicious of this being a typo because I've certainly never heard of diablo making a black fill ball. They also don't say what color the outer shell is.

Unique. I use black Midnight when I can, reduces the chance of it being detected in the woods and is quite unique. I know when I hit somebody if you walk with black shell.

Thanks for the help guys.

The reason I want black fill is partly because it is unique, but that is least reason.

My friends and I found these little islands in a swampy park and we started playing paintball there. It takes a canoe to get to it and the area is pretty isolated and woodsy with a few little shacks.

Someone saw our paint splats on the trees and buildings , which gave them the idea. Now they are having big tournaments there on an occasional basis.

What we want to do is sneak up on them, while they are having a tournament and shoot them at night, while they are playing eachother. They will have no clue we are there. We are hoping that our black paint will not show up that well, so it will not mess them up as much when they try to determine if they got shot. If we are the only ones using black fill, they will know that our shots don't count against them if they realize that we are outsiders. Also, the psychological effect of a unique fill mixed with misterious and illusive players would be cool. They would probably go on a hunt for us.

ha ha... that would be hilarious. i know you can get zap spanks with a black shell but i dunno about fill.

[Simpsons11]

Zap Spank only has white and pink fill with black shell

Personally, I just want anything good with red fill... Very rare. I think one of the Team Colors has a red fill... black shells, especially with black fills, though... never heard of it.

Draxxus competitive edge comes in red/red fill. I bought some but it was little old and had some dimples but it still shot good.

Sounds like fun until they find out what you're doing, decide you're annoying arseholes and track you down and beat the crap out of ya. At least that's what my friends and I as well as most of the paintballers I know would do. Have fun!;)

It is a christian retreat group, so we are probably pretty safe. LOL.

[poolshark5226]

ah, fair nuff. Unless they decide that you're heretics:P

Having black fill? If your opponent is wearing black clothes good luck trying to convince the ref you shot him out.

*edit* oh i read the thread thats the point :P
