An air through stock is usually where the guns stock is your gas tank, making the military sim look more authentic
In general, paintball has a lot larger base, and can gather more people for events. There are paintball fields in a lot of places, and not many dedicated airsoft areas. If you have the money you can get good gear and have fun in either. At that point you can buy and use realistic paintball guns (or more fun, over the top airsoft guns). The expensive airsoft guns look very realistic, but since the military uses paintball guns for training, it could go either way for "realism". If you can find a dedicated milsim group in either you will be set.
Owning a paintball gun is not usually a violation of federal probabtion, unless due to the original offense the terms and conditions of probation exclude it-by this I could mean someone committed a robbery with a paintball gun. However, this does not mean having a paintball gun cannot be construed as intent to commit a crime ie. if you threaten someone with a weapon. Again it comes down to intent-you can have a knife in your hand eating your dinner but use that same knife to threaten someone is entirely different.
You could mean what is the longest production run, longest model run etc. but I'll assume you are referring to durability. Arguably the most durable paintball gun is the Tippmann line of guns, generally the 98 Custom and A-5 model variants. These guns are mechanical paintball markers with heavy steel frames and no electronic parts. They are popular as rental guns and amongst "woodsball" players who want a mil-sim appearance and may require durability for long scenario games.
It depends on what you mean by "sell". If you mean put it on Ebay for trade, or on PBnation then no. you have every right to do so. If however, you mean to open a shop and sell goods then yes.
if u mean the tank that you put your shoulder against and what powers it. no u can get co2 or compressed air (compressed air is better for your gun)
Checkering refers to the diamond patterned designs etched in the stock of some shotguns and rifles.
It's not the sport that matters but how you play it. If you are stupid and don't wear masks then neither of them are safe. Paintballs hurt worse but in airsoft you get hit much more often. In paintball after about your second game you get used to getting hit and it doesn't hurt as bad. The same thing goes for airsoft. But when you think about it airsoft runs off batteries and paintball runs off of Co2 and HpA. So the only way you couldn't be safe in paintball is by not following the rules and not keeping good care of your gun parts and tanks. Hope this helps a little......Personally i play paintball. Send me a message if you have any more questions. Noobhelper 2 Paintball and airsoft are both safe if you know what you are doing and follow safety rules. If the question is what hurts worse, paintball will usually tend to sting more, but airsoft guns can vary in fps, (feet per second), and paintball guns have a set fps speed that fields will only allow (a limit), so you may run into airsoft guns that hurt worse than others, and paintball guns won't vary too much.
Unless you mean a simple potato gun, then not really. Designing a paintball gun from the ground up would take extensive machining and airsmith knowledge. Most people modify or customize existing parts for their guns, or machine noncritical parts for safety reasons.
you mean Spyder, Spyder (owned by Kingman) is a company that produces stacked tube blowback markers (entry level and a very prooven design) they are a good and reputable company
if you mean Melbourne Florida, then I will suggest Hurricane Paintball Park
you probably mean chop, its when a paintball is not fully loaded in the breach of the marker before the bolt comes forward and chops it in half
The tagging of a person in paintball is the process of marking somebody with colorful gelatin balls. It is done by aiming, shooting and hitting (tagging) somebody with the paintball gun.
