Well... about the national paitnball thing, I really dont know, but everything on their website seems to say "in assosiation with" or something like that with National Paintball Supply

FYI Halo's are now a part of NPS. I don't think it had anything to do with the BE suit.

Hhhhmm...on eBay..I'll have to check that out..ooohhh...and the only thing about County paintball is they don't say which one they have Backman or Frontman and if it's an LED or LCD..and if you try to email them at [email protected] the email bounces back to me..

While that's the word that's been going around the industry since the Ultimate Madness, Odyssey's staff denied it at the PSP Vegas tournament.

They have always had a strong working relationship with National Paintball Supply one of their largest customers, in fact most of last year they did all of their tech support at major tournaments at National's truck. It's possible that if it wasn't a buyout that they may have entered an exclusive distributorship, or sold product rights, or something along those lines.

Odyssey's web site is here:

NPS owns www.haloloader.com.

Owning a domain does not begat owning a company. However it sure indicates some close working relationships. I do know that Paintball Inc. backed out of distibuting Halo's again at the last minute. And all the sudden National did. So that would indicate some exclusivity. However us small dealers still exist and order just like we always did direct from Odyssey. I suspect at a larger cost per unit...

Just yesterday on the phone with Odyssey they told me there is no truth to that story. And that NPS is indeed a large distributor for them. However they claim there is no truth at all to any buy out of them by National Paintball Supply.

Halo B's are in good stock now. However TSA's have been shipping out but they are currently out of stock on them. But they did fill all their large orders on them they said. That would mean National should have them. I have one on order just to take a look at them but do not know when it may arrive.

Oh I know NPS may not own Odyssey, just saying they own that website

Chuck: If you're anywhere near the Pev's Fairfax shop, go check in with Rob. They had at least one of the "backman" TSA's in the shop when i ducked in last Saturday.

The TSA was a lot lighter than the Halo B, but man, is that thing loooong.

Yeah, but they also own nppl.com, which has nothing to do with the ownership of NPPL, Inc., owned by Chuck Hendsch.

Well..the only thing that worrries me is that the only thing slower than X-Mag production is Halo production so I'm afraid we won't see this thing in large numbers till at least WC..

Nothing is that slow!!

Well..Cphil..if you can get a backman...it can be the backup for my HaLo-B I'll really consider it...I still wonder about what the LCD is going to do for you vs. the LED...oh well...
