Once they returned, they thought - hey we could make some $$ form this. They developed a non-toxic water salable paint ball and the rest is history. The old PGP guns were very reliable but would only hold a single paint tube and used very small 12gram Co2 cartridges.

I use to know the names but my "AGE" is starting to get to me.

that story was great grandpa. Got another ?
