i've seen tons of red paintballs. Have you looked around at all? Check your local sporting-goods store, or a paintball range.

Most paintball companies stopped making red paintballs, but I know that Brass Eagle still makes them in red.

Darkfang, what do you want red paintballs for? If you want them for shooting at someone in a movie...to make it look like they're shot, forget it. it doesn't show up on tape well enough. that's my experience, anyway.

I've used paintballs before when we shot on 16mm B/W. If you cut it right it doesn't look that bad.
