New to paintball. Need some help.

[scarr09]

My son and I are starting to play paintball and are having some problems. Is it common for the balls to lodge and explode in the barrel? Or is this a combination of cheap gun/bad ammo? Any advice would be appreciated.

Indeed it is a combination of cheap gun/bad paint

well it depends what kinda paint and what kinda gun r u using

could be barrel to bore size problem, make sure your barrel size is a slight bit bigger than your paint bore size....kk

a good way to tell is take the barrel off, put a ball in it, see if you can blow it out...could be several things but this and too brittle of paint for the conditions...ect ect...

I lied. I havent been Pb'in In Ages. Bad balls, weather. I have a good idea, let ur balls sit in the sun for a minute or too, itll get em nice and hard. :3
