got a few questions

[wileyc143]

Ok I have a couple of questions that maybe distriubtors, and or players can help me out with.

Noone really knows yet, but i have been successfull at getting paintball approved for a MWR activity here in afghanistan. I have some unique obstacles to overcome.
First, getting paint here relatively unscathed. how the hell do i manage that? If we were to order a pallet is it fairly secure? what it has to endure is the military shipping process. it can be quite brutal. Any info that can be either posted or sent to me in an e-mail or PM would be priceless.
Second, CO2....... we have pretty much a unlimited supply of compressed or nitrogen, but where can i get CO2 from? we don't have any kind of beverage dispensers like in the states, I don't really know what kind of non paintball playing person that i can turn to to see if they have got CO2 here. otherwise i am gonna have to come up with like 20 Nitro tanks.
Lastly, I need some contacts from the corperations that might possibly be able to donate or discount gear, and paint. if anyone can foward me or post some information it would be most helpful.

Thanks guys!!

Greg,
I would like to help with this project, email me and we can discuss it.
My Millennium Paintball Website has a contact page.

CO2 could be a problem and the type of tanks used are different than Beverage machines use anyway. But I am sure there must be some way to make it happen.

Wiley...

I take it you are in country... well.. do you have any one over there who is a welder? Or an Engineers Div over there that does metal fab building... or even vehicle maint? Look to thier supply of gasses for welding... there might be your answer to how to get Co2?

Just an idea since I have no idea what you have over there to deal with...

Good Bless...and stay SAFE!
