Now excluding cheap blow back spyder clones, i was wondering if there are many products in paintball that are made over the boarder? Because it seems the me that this is one of the few sports that has yet to be molested by the forgien production industry. And if this idea is true then it could be a reason why paintball is such an expensive sport.
But i am more than likly wrong. And i know there are many other sports that are very expensive but for some reason paintball seems to be the most easily expensive sport.

Matrixes(or Matrices, both are correct ;) ) are made in Canada.. Diablo/Draxxus paintballs I believe are made in Canada, I know pro-ball is(if they are still around).

As for being foreign making the sport cheaper, not all countries have lax labor laws that can constitute cheap products. England and Angels are a good example. They have that 17.5%(or around there) tax on goods that boost prices, making manufacturing cost more, etc.. I don't know all that much about it.. Manike can correct me.. :p

I realize my computer is asain but if I had a choice between an asain comp and an american I would pick american. too bad the computer market is cornered by the asains leaving me no choice in the matter.
