Indoor Play

[12 Gauge]

It would be interesting to set up or even build a small "shell"(walls, doors, and window openings) of a building so a 4-5 man team could play room entry and clear. Kind of like a S.W.A.T. team

Yeah that would be really cool, I was listening to a paintball podcast earlier in the year and part of it was an interview with a CQB (close quarters battle) club.  Very intense play.  They turn their markers down to about 200fps and have a huge abandoned industrial area to play in doing the things you describe.  Real hardcore sweep and clear stuff.

Neat.

You could probably find an example if you search youtube for "cqb paintball" or something like that.

I'll have to check that out.

I would go for any indoor reball field, playing paintball in the winter just isn't as fun the older I get.

Or you can do what I did, travel to Florida in winter!

we usually play up at my house in the winter nothing like a shooting paintballs having them freeze in mid air and hit you. Ouch.

But doesn't freezing them make them more brittle?

not really they freeze in mid flight then when they hit you they just bounce off

I had the rare opportunity to play in a two story house before it was demolished 8years ago. It was really fun and I'd do it again if I could. I only wish that I had all the gear I have now back then. I do remember corners being a little menacing.

hence forth the reason I always need a secondary the barrel on my gun alone is 21 inches

I bought an EndGame 3" barrel for future close encounters. I love it. Loud as heck, scares the crap out of people

I have friends in Belgium that play on an old abandoned military base. They have run of the entire base and all the buildings. It is pretty awesome to say the least if you like CQB stuff.

There is also a place in Toronto, Canada called CQB / CQB2 that looks really cool. I have considered finding an old warehouse around here locally and doing something like it, but am unsure of the interest in the area. I'm sure if one was built it could be marketed to police and military for downtime training like Opsgear has in thier Urban Warfare Training Center in Salt Lake.

I know a couple of my friends were interested in indoor it would be something different which i think would be part of the appeal. but like you said the problem is finding a place around here.

I found a place to play in the winter up by where I moved.  Check it out.
