| Midnight Paintballs are designed for the cost-conscious recreational player. The "Midnight" Jet-Black shell is formulated to accommodate high pressure guns (300 PSI +) with a fill that is comparable to Blaze paintballs. |
|
Product Availability |  |
|
| The Diablo Midnight Paintballs are newer, so they should be commonly available. |

THE FREAK |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Strengths: |
-Not very expensive (esp for Diablo products)
-Good thick fill, doesn't stain, can't wipe
-Fairly consistent size, which gives better than average accuracy |
 |
| Weaknesses: |
-Diablo spends too much on the box and paint bags...
-They could be a little more accurate
-Could be a little thinner shell for what u pay
|
 |
| Conclusion: |
If you're looking for a tournament level paint thats pretty accurate and not too expensive, go with this. If you just need some stuff to play with every weekend and u just need cheap paint, go with ZAP primer. |

| Strengths: |
Thick fill, most fill is bright, I used 3000 and only broke 2 or 3
|
 |
| Weaknesses: |
None that I found |
 |
| Review: |
I love this paint, its inexpensive, they hardly ever break and have a nice thick fill so its not easy for cheaters to wipe. Its perfect for everyday use. It wont work the best in teh cold weather, but then again, most paint doesn't. This paint is accurate and has very few dimples/defects. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
I recommend you buy it if you play a lot and cant afford more expensive paint. It works just fine |

| Review: |
Great paintballs. They went straight every shot . They are also an alsome bore size for my shocker. I am impressed with this paint. All deoblo paint is nice though. Get this if you cant get evil paint. I have also been fond of the slightly heavyness that these paintballs carry because the drop down fast enough. Sometimes my ricochet hopper cant keep up with my gun. these balls help me shoot less gaps. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
I think this would be nice for any player. Awsome paint DEO>> DARRAXXAS |

| Review: |
CONS
-diablo spends to much time on their boxess, if they just put their name only on it the paint would probably be only 35 dollars instead of 40.
-Kinda thick shell, brakes most of the time but everyonce in a while you will get a bouncer
PROS
-good thick paint ( doesn't wipe off easily )
-dosn't stain
-very consistent size makes for better than average accuracy
good price, only 40bux at my local shop |
 |
| Conclusion: |
This is a great tournament paint at a every weekend kinda price. prefect for every kind of play. I give it a 9/10 because the shell is kind of thick but it stil works great |

Break OFTEN |
 |
| Review: |
All in all, these balls are o.k.. The only problem is that they break, a lot. Out of 500, i broke 2. I still havent broken a pmi in over 2000. Also, these balls have a pretty nasty price tag. I dont like them, but would use them over Brass Eagle any day. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
Get these balls if you want to waste money....thats it. |

| Review: |
These are pretty good paintballs although they ar epretty expensive,they shoot strait, and 95% of the time the break, im not sure they are worth $50 or not, but they are good quality paintballs.i would recomend them over most paint, but i think there not as good as scorch |
 |
| Conclusion: |
I would get these if youve got some extra money and you need good paintballs |

Recommended Barrels: |
havent had a problem with these in any barrels but works good in a smart parts progressive |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Strengths: |
They never broke in my barrels, the shoot pritty good. accurate, about 50 a case |
 |
| Weaknesses: |
Some times they dont breack on contact but not that much. |
 |
| Review: |
I used these at a local feild. They where very cheap because some times paintball feilds make you buy there paint and they give you rec ball for 50 a case but at most feilds they give you this for 50. These are alot better then rec and are good for the price. The only bad part is the balls dont breack sometimes but the good thing is that they hurt the people that i shot if they dont breack so they are pusses and call them selfs out before i get to make the balls breack on them. |
 |
| Conclusion: |
All and all these are great paintballs and i will continue to buy them.if any one wants to buy a tippmann a5 contact me my sceen name is jfdeadkennedy, the gun was used 4 times |
