I first played in '91, and decided first game I was going to design something for paintball guns. Little did I know....
Later (like, '93?) I worked at a hobby shop after convincing the owner to carry paintball equipment. I open a field ('95?), ran it with the guy who became Doc Nickel. Had a falling out. Come up with the Shiva design and a few others, had the Shiva made, ended up doing some work with Racegun (01?)with the plan of putting the Shiva on the racegun platform. I did quite a bit with the cocker community, even had a run of bolts on the market for it. Came up with the Torque concept, filed a patent and bounced it around a bit, then due to some family issues took time off (my daughters were abducted for a few years by their mom.) During that time I still dabbled with my contacts and related, working on designs and feedback and just helped people out along the way, the latest being the Zodiac guns.
Right now I am just getting my head above water on the family issues, getting the ducks in a row to start the business up. I have the designs, the prototypes, the test gun mules running and enough talent on board to make a go of it. As soon as I get settled here in TX things will start to roll.
