Paintballs are the ammunition of a paintball gun.  The paint is non-toxic and bio-degradable (made of a sugar-based liquid) covered by a very thin shell of similar make-up (also bio-degradable).  When they hit, paintballs break open and ‘mark’ your opponents with paint (this is why they call the guns ‘paintball markers’).  It’s important to know the different types of paintballs to make sure you get the right kind that will work best in your particular paintball gun.

Paintballs generally come in two sizes; .68 and .43 caliber.  .68 caliber paintballs are the standard, fit most markers and are commonly used at commercial paintball fields.  .43 caliber paintballs are a smaller size and mostly used in certain paintball pistols, grenades and few rifles.  Most paintballs also come in different gradients to cater to your type of play; tournament grade paintballs cost more, however are extremely reliable while recreational grades cost less but may not be as accurate/consistent.

We know that sometimes buying your paintballs online can cost a bit more (because you pay for shipping), but the advantage is selection.  At ChoicePaintballGuns.com, we offer grades, sizes and varieties not found in your local store or commercial field.  Add a box of paintballs to your order and enjoy the convenience of having them delivered directly to your front door!
