Read reviews on site such as InfoPaintball, PbReview, and PbNation
Don't be afraid to ask questions

First thing you want to do is to determine your budget. Determing your budget will help you eliminate the guns you can't afford, or will not be worth your money. Also be aware of the fact that some paint-guns, such as semi-auto and auto-cockers, discharge more balls and use more CO2 than others. This can also affect the cost of your game.

Determine your play. Are you going to play monthly? Weekly? Or just a couple times a year?This will help decide your budget too.

Determine your level. Are you going to play for fun? For tournaments? Woodsballs? Speedballs?This will help you decide your budget as well.
