I’ve been shopping around and looking at used paintball guns for some time now and I finally picked up a Tippman 98C.

I’m stoked that I finally found a used Tippman at a decent price because Tippman is well known for making high quality paintball guns that last forever and are easy to maintain.

When I first started looking it felt like I would never find a TIppman because practically everyone that was selling was selling off cheaper and lower end paintball guns like Spyders and other brands I had never heard of.

While it may be ok to buy a Spyder brand new, especially because they’re still pretty cheap for automatics, buying it used is a risk because they’re not that durable. Tippman’s on the other hand or made to last.

I was kinda worried at first when I bought the paintball gun because I bought it on eBay. I did everything I could beforehand though to make sure the guy was a legit seller. I spoke to him on the phone, I got him to send me additional photos of the Tippman and I asked him why he was getting rid of it.

I was really surprised when I got the Tippman by UPS because the gun was in terrific shape. I’ve already used it and I’m convinced that I got a great deal. For those of you that don’t want to invest in a new paintball gun you may want to take a look at some used paintball guns and see if you can find something decent out there.
