You may have noticed some changes to the website navigation, colors, etc. I'm only a few weeks away from redirecting the entire site to a new Mambo website. I wanted to better integrate the blog and galleries. I'm also working on a paintball storefront for selling my gear and services. I apologize for any navigation issues or outages over the past few weeks. For an early look at the new website visit the following link:

Since my last update I've only been able to play twice. I got out for a day over Memorial Day weekend and this pervious weekend was the Fall scenario game at Sudden Impact. This was the second or third scenario hosted by the ISU paintball team that I've played. They always put on a great game! We had around 100 players with 5 hours of in field action (not bad for a one day scenario). Our side had several small groups of experienced milsim players and we dominated most of the game. The sides were still reasonably matched; it's not like we walked all over the other team. I have to say that I was kickin tale most of the day with an estimated 45 kills and was only shot out 6 times.

There was an X-ball field where most of the heavy fighting took place. I spent most of the day avoiding the major fire fights and defending key positions in less active areas of the field. I think a big reason my kill count was so high is that I played more of a supporting sniper role. I also made a last minute decision to use my SITH ION with a stock and freak barrel rather than my 98 Pro-E. The marker is crazy quiet, accurate, and with virtually no recoil. Up till now I only considered using my ION's as conversion markers but I think I have a new primary. The marker was so quiet! Combined with the cover of nearby gunfire I was almost silent at times which proved to be a huge advantage. I also shot through 2,500 rounds without a single break. I might have a hard time going back to my Tippmann.
