BARREL PLUGS
    Barrel plugs are a second safety precaution used at paintball field other than a mask.  It is a piece of plastic stuffed into the barrel so that when a paintball is shot the barrel plug breaks the ball, and doesn't allow the ball to travel out of the barrel.  The purpose of a barrel plug is to stop a ball that was unintentionally shoot. While not playing or if a player is "hit" barrel plugs are usually required to be in the barrel.   This is important because if a game is over and people take their masks off a paintball could accidentally put someone's eye out.  Unfortunately if a ball does get shot with the barrel plug in, it leaves a mess in your barrel. Barrel plugs are inexpensive costing only three dollars.
