3 out of 5 stars A lot of essays on paintball   June 1, 2008
I was looking more for who, what, when, where and how, but this is more of a biographical history of paintball told through several essays on the subject. It is informative, but NOT my go to definitive guide to paintball. It seems more like a series of magazine articles, than an actual book.

5 out of 5 stars A virtual encyclopedia of expert advice   July 16, 2004
 1 out of 3 found this review helpful

Now in an updated, expanded, and illustrated third edition, The Complete Guide To Paintball can justifiably be considered as the "bible" of one of the country's most popular personal competition sporting activities. This is a virtual encyclopedia of expert advice and information on the rules, equipment, clothing, safety, tactics, fields, and every other aspect of the game. If you are a participant (or soon to be one) in this exciting and challenging game where you shoot (and get shot at with) a paint-filled gelatin capsule from an air-powered "marker" gun at a velocity of 300 feet per second, then you will need your very own copy of The Complete Guide To Paintball!
