Samsy wants to know if 750$ spent on a paintball gun is retarded or not.

meh people spend thousands upon thousands of dollars for tv's, ps3's, chairs, art....

all depends on an individual basis if its worth it..for me yes. for someone who's a huge player and loves to every weekend then i say no...just like tv's or cars....usually the more expensive it costs the more options and higher quality u get

If you can't honestly think of something better to spend (or save) the money on, then I guess its not stupid.



But...yeah, it's stupid.

Depends on how much Samsy plays.

If he plays once a month or less than yes it is very stupid, if he plays three or more times a month then it is a worthy investment.

For you saying $750 on a real gun > paint marker you are wrong because how much exercise do you regularly get while holding your real gun? Hunting once or twice a year and the work it takes to go from car to gun range?

With a paintball gun you are running through towns, squatting and participating in a very physical activity every time you take it out to play.
