I know everyone knows of the 'incident' at SCAO in November 2002. A 3-man team consisting of Load SM5 (Jeff), Tom, and someone else (not important ;) ) were preparing to play a game.
Well, at the start of the game, the guys went to place their barrels on the 'dead box' and when Jeff's hit the pole, the gun fired and shot Tom right in the kisser! :D Apparently Jeff had the SFL triggger a little sensitive.
Well, I was reading thru my X-Mag manual tonight when I saw this:
The ability to make the electronic trigger so sensitive means that if the trigger is accidentally bumped while the marker is live it can shoot multiple paintballs. The traditional barrel plug is great at preventing one paintball from exiting the barrel, but not multiples. We strongly recommend that you purchase a good barrel bag that will stop this occurring. The barrel bag should have a reinforced end.
I think Tom had you in mind when he wrote this, Jeff! ;)
EDIT: No, I will never let you forget this Jeff, it's your claim to fame. :D
