This article is from Sept 3rd, during the Republican National Convention. Took me a while to get it scanned, thought AO and Tom might like to see it.

Cool. Ya know though...they keep calling it a "paintball gun". The problem is, that it's not. you are gonna get some idiot out there that reads this and say, hey, how bad can it hurt, I think I am gonna cause trouble anyway. He'll find out real fast that it's not a normal paintball gun

Yeah, that was really my only issue with the article. The media needs to learn to seperate paintball from riot suppression technology derived from paintball.Comment

Yeah tom will get pleasure from this im sure. Those are pretty sweet i want one

I've got a copy of Boston Herald (this artical is the only reason I touched this rag) Tues. August 24, 2004 that's got the FN303 on the front page.
The artical is about how "[Boston] cops sitting on DNC Arsenal." I guess they've got a few things left over that didn't get used in all the "riots" durring the DNC."Relax. Don't worry. Have a Home Brew."

Seeing such a poorly written as this one makes me wonder how these "journalists" must write a bunch of other poorly informed articles about other topics, because they obviously don't do much research about a topic before they write.Comment

These phrases stood out for me the most...
"A distance of at least 10 feet between the cop and the target is required before the paintball is fired."
"Compressed air blasts the paintball out of the muzzle at a knockdown velocity of 300 feet per second..."
I know the FN-303 rounds are substantially harder then normal, so this may be an entirely true statement. Not a terribly big fan of seeing "paintball" being associated with the capability of "knocking someone down".

I'm also wondering about the "decreases to 75 feet per second at 100 meters"... Can this thing shoot over 300 feet, even if its only going 75fps?Hey Zero, how much did that Chipley cost ya?
