6-PAK circa 1989. When introduced at the Line SI Masters in Nashville, the entire stock of 100 sold out in hours. The AGD crew worked furiously to build more and ship them down overnight only to have them sell out again. When two were given out at the players party the product received a standing ovation. The 6-Pak allowed for virtually instantaneous changing of the 12 gram cartridge without even lowering the marker. At the time constant air was not being allowed in tournaments because it changed the game too much. With the 6-Pak the point was moot so by the next year all the major tournaments went to constant air. This is probably the only paintball product whose tremendous success caused its own demise. Production started and stopped in 1989. Only 2,000 were ever built and they are virtually non-existent today.
