ive never came close to being shot in the nads. Except this one time, we were playing protect the president, and i was hunting out some people, and I walked past one of a fellow agent. He almost blew off mister winkey! I was pissed, but it wasn't a kill shot, cause head only counted. Geez, he almost got lit up!
no i don't use one and never have known anyone to be hit there...but i am looking for a good one so if anyone knows where there is a hard gel or some type of a cup other than those uncompfortable plastic ones let me know.

Naw, I don't wear a cup when I play, but after hearing some of the results of getting hit in the junk, I'm thinking about starting. Heard if ya get hit there, it can rupture a testicle! (irreparable damage. Bad juju.)
Been hit there once, but my fatigues were baggy enough I never even felt it. Glad I didn't too! Was rushing a bunker at the time!

Nut shots don't feel good ... I haven't taken a head on, aiming for the Fellas shot, but I got hit there last week, side glancing shot, and it hurt like hell, and I've got a nasty welt ... Lefty was swollen, it hurt to sit down ... I normally wear a cup, but didn't that day ... well, i've posted why on another thread, but believe me, it's worth the investment, and they aren't that bulky, kind hard to whip out your John Thomas when ya gotta go, but it's a small price to pay for piece of mind.

I tried to wear a cup once, but it was soo unconfortable I spent most of the game with my hand down my pants adjusting it into a better position. When I get hit there, I'll wear a helmet. :)

im not smart enough to ware a cup i still dont! but i guess waring one would be uncomfortable.(but more comfortable then busting a nut)

THere was an artical in Apg a few months ago about a review of some cups and the softer comfortable kind. I think the website that they ordered from was Internationaljock.com or something to that extent

i've been shot in the leg very close to it w/o the balls (paintballs)breaking,so i just put my harness in front instead of back.

I always protect my nads. My wife shot me square in the jock a few months ago while testing out her SE. This sucked, let me tell you. She said "Well I didn't wanna shoot you in the mask"
Screw that. Gog me any day, but never ever aim that low. I wear protection every game now. It's either that or another twelve long days without sex. Not to mention the exquisit pain which if in a really unlucky case may drop you to your knees.
Wear cup!!! Trust me a nut shot HURTS

Have you gone insane?! HECK YES I wear a cup, the risk is prolly pretty low but think about it if it did happen

Why wear a cup when you gotta perfectly good hand!? Hold and aim the gun with one hand, put your other hand over your nads, simple! I just stuff a bunch of soft stuff down there, like a pillow. HAHAHA, Mr. Smith asked me if I was pregnant, boy did he regret it. Why would he ask a boy if he was pregnant?
