how well will this work for a paintball? Is it durable enough to work?

In my opinion based on my use, I do not feel this sight would be durable enough for even moderate paintball service. Works well on pellet pistol which I shoot occasionally for target use only.

As long as the battery doesn't fall out. The weakest part on the whole sight is the battery cover, so if you run around or are a bit rough, the battery will fall out. So I guess it will work for paintball if you rig something to keep the battery in place.

Absolutely will hold up for play fighting. My 4 year old son and I use it all the time with a Luke Skywalker one and we have some pretty epic battles. In fact it even makes specific noises when you hit something with it. The clear plastic that contains the glowing part will get marked up but nothing major.

Yes it would but that will depend on the speed you have for the Paintball gun. My boys love this and have some how made a game out of it. I am glad I can find 22 long rifle. I lose them for hours as they are out shooting. I hope you enjoy your as much as My Boys and I enjoy mine

Sorry, I can't help. I had to send mine back because it was too powerful. It broke every brand of paintball I used inside the marker. I ended up going with a less powerful tank.

I use it for woods ball, it won't be that accurate because most paintball guns are bad at shooting straight but it's good for eyeballing shots.

I can't say for sure. We bought it for Christmas and played with it for a few hours. Worked fine and I would imagine it would last a good while if you're just shooting in the backyard

Yes, it is very durable and holds zero excellent. There is a video on youtube of a guy torture testing it, and its amazing the abuse it can take! I encourage you to check it out.

According to GoPro, this attachment "Fits around any bar from 0.75" to 1.4" (1.9cm - 3.5cm) in diameter." So if your barrel is in that range, then yes. Being that most Paintball barrels are anodized aluminum or painted, they are very smooth, so you'll want to use the included rubber gripper so the mount is less likely to spin on the barrel without wrenching down on the screws, so your max and min are probably decreased by 1/10" due to the gripper's material thickness. Also, GoPro just released a Sportsman mount created for use on Guns, Bows, and Fishing Rods. Sounds like you should check it out. Be weary though, since it just came out you'll probably only find it on GoPro's site...at premium price.

Yes! We have owned for nearly a year and it has held up nicely! It was bought for my 3-year-old son and he loves it. We have caught him sitting and standing on it and it shows no sign of wear. He doesn't use the ball shooter much, but even that has withstood our son. No issues with pin setter either. Yes, durable :)

My son has pretty much put this thing thru the ringer...he plays airsoft with his friends, used it for halloween, rolls it ina ball and never puts it away in the bag...but I just put it away for him last week and it is still in great shape....

Yes in my opinion it would work just fine. The sound quality isn't the best but if ur not using it for that that reason it will be great. I use it while im playing airsoft and it's been great no complaints besides the sound quality which for the money u spend really isn't bad at all. So ya I would go for it

It is very durable, just the screw came out of the back of the stock for the battery comp., so I had to tape it. The page for the product says it can fire 750 rounds per minute, but the mag only holdes about 300 (at least thats what it says on the box). It is mostly metal, such as the gearbox and barrel, but the stock, both grips, and stocks ar plastic. I STRONGLY agree with buying this.

The thing is pretty damn durable especially if you get the rubber outer protection. The down side is that the rubber slows down the ball quite a bit

This gun works great on co2, that is all I have run threw it. I'm new to paintball stuff and this was a gun for my son. I would think compressed air would function just as well being the same psi.

Sorry for the delay, I have been on vacation. This knife is very sturdy but people who play paintball are used to being hit and usually wear some type of protective gear. These knives could hurt someone if enough force is applies and they would be very useful in hand-to-hand combat training. I would say it only depends on the force used.

Yes, my 8 yr old has this one at he does fine with it. It was his first paintball gun too!! :)

All the plastic comments of the gun are hard plastic. Unless your bashing it against the wall it will not break during game play. The durable is definitely a 8 outta 10. Great for beginners and intermediate players. I would not reccomend this gun for speed ball.
