Pump Talkin
Article by Matt AKA “Kenny”
Today, and leading up to the OKC Outlaws & Lawdawgs pump and pistol game, I will be posting a series of conversations with my fellow pumpers.
The pumpers have found a home here at OK Company, and the ranks have been growing. With more people seeing what we can do with one [...]
Desert Warriors
In this blog segment, we explore some of the gear preferences and unique playing style of our good friends at High Desert Scenario. Only a matter of 2.5 hours away, their environment is polar opposite compared to the drippy, wet Willamette Valley. Large rocks and small trees dot an arid landscape known for its temperature [...]
Orthodoxy, Fundamentalism and Blasphemy

It’s probably occurred to you over the years of perusing paintball media both print and web, that there always seems to be some commentary as it pertains to the philosophy of paintball. Almost always there are references to trends (real or perceived) that the writer refers to as [...]
Keepin it frosty: Play smart, play comfortable
With spring and summer upon us it’s time we discuss keeping cool and comfortable on the field.
1. Breathability: Heavy cotton and multiple layers may blunt those hits but these same fabrics trap in heat. Your body wastes 90% of its energy just regulating your body temperature. Help it out by wearing breathable fabrics and synthetic [...]
On field temper tantrums
This is a short, simple and petty rant about one of my biggest paintball pet peeves. Getting pissed and having an intelligent discussion about it is one thing. Foot stomping tantrums are totally different, and something that happens all too often, much to my chagrin.
It’s almost always about them getting overshot, how the other team [...]

Even Fat Guys Can Play Paintball
By: Aaron a.k.a Captain A
I’ve always been a big guy. “Big boned” my mamma would say or “husky” as my grandma put it. Truth be told, it was always one of the things that kept me away from sports. I couldn’t run as fast or play as long as others and when it came to [...]
The Good, The bad, The Confused; A fistful of the Oregon Scene.
This scene is full gypsy dogs, prostitutes and scally wags. For a long time we were nickel and dime to death by the gypsies, the prostitutes are multiplying like gremlins (just add discounted paintball, slave labor and water) and finally the Scally wags are claiming to have dicks bigger than David Hasselhoff’s and have the [...]
Gearing Up for a Paintball Addiction – Part 1
Paintball is just so much fun it’s a shame to keep it to yourself. Like many people you probably want to share it with your friends and family, and hopefully get them hooked as well. There’s no doubt an activity that depends so much on teamwork and communication is good at strengthening relationships off the [...]
Embrace .50 caliber paintball? Ed says yes.
By: Ed a.k.a Espire
My nightly routine has always been to surf PBNation to giggle at the latest ‘who has the bigger barrel’ arguments. Further,I wanted to congratulate the Forest Demons on a job well done placing First place in the top 2 divisions.
Then I saw a poll/topic that very much caught my eye. ‘.50 Cal [...]
