Yes Gene, I already sent this to Tony, but here it is for everyone...

You might want to look into airsoft. These are replica guns that fire 6mm
BBs. A club I take part in uses these guns to play combat games. It's far
superior to paintball, and we try to keep it realistic.

Here are a few airsoft places that may be able to help you:

www.airsoftelite.com
www.747imports.com

Also there are links from the Cimmerians website:
