Air America parts???service???

[GordDesigns]

OK does anyone know what is the actual situation with this company??
I have 3 of these regulators and need parts, who do I contact?

Any info would be great.
Anyone with rebuild kits or parts please contact me. ( Raptor and Apocolypes type )
Does any other regulator use the same type of burst disc?

Well, Air America offers a pretty much bulletproof lifetime warrenty.

Just call them up directly since their site is being updated.

or heres a site that sells parts:

AA used to have great service, but as of late I have been thoroughly disappointed with the quality of their work, and have since stopped using AA tanks altogether.

If you want parts, you can order through AA's online store, or call them and order parts.

Hope that helps.

I get them from my local paintball store, but AA is pretty good at gettign them out to me in a Jam too. 888Paintball too has them.

Get extra pins and parts, they are cheap and you will always have them, shipping is the same for them...

Theres an old fashioned device that you can use to get in dirct contact with a company, IT'S CALLED THE TELEPHONE!

Goodluck contacting Air America

I tried calling them, emailing them and AA Europe, no response from anyone. Have read on PBN board that someone who lives nearby drove by the address for AA and found a "for-lease" sign on the building. tried contacting the field associated with AA, no answer at that number either.

And oh yeah, the Brady Paintaball site actually DOESNT have the parts listed. I called them and they were out of stock.

Good luck finding parts. I bought a new piston housing from AGD (u can use the piston pack for the Mag classic) and used the regulator seat from the Automag parts kit.


DONT BOTHER CALLING THEM

Yes you are correct, nobody there to answer the phone. Or the email.
If anyone knows of a shop that has any burst disc's hp side and lp side please let me know. Thats all I need to get one regulator up and running.

Just an update on this.

I called Air America before reading this, and the line has been disconnected.

I did a whois check, the number listed, is the one i called, I also called the fax, which has been disconnected. At this time, their site is set to expire in august of this year. I guess we will find out if they really are gone for good around that time.

There are rumors that guerrilla air is air america reopened under a different name.

I called guerrilla air, and asked, they deny it, they also deny any knowledge of what is up with or has happened to air america.

Personally this totally bums me out. Not just because I have a raptor rex tank that I know and love, that happens to need some maintence. But also because one of the (up till now) most reputable and well respected names in paintball appears to be gone and appears to have totally screwed over their previous customers.

How many folks have been told, "Just buy Air America, then your set, its got a lifetime warrenty" only now to have the company apparently vanish without a trace or sound.

This sucks!

[magman007]

i truely believe that gurilla air is the remanufactured version of AA. saying they are doing everything, and in the same style as AA. most people know AA is famous for doing the IAO lanyards every year, well guess who is doin em this year?. yup Gurilla air

[Muzikman]

Companies disapear every day. I am sure they did not want to close their doors and leave their customers out to dry, but what choice do they have? AA was a small company and paintball is now big business. The small companies can only keep their head above water before they finally go under and the bubbles stop.

I hate to see Air America go. I have been shooting their tanks for years (since 96 or 97 I think it's been). They were a great group of guys and they understood that safety was an issue in this sport. They also made some great products.

[WARPED1]

I wonder how long it'll be before the AO zombies blame Smart Parts for this.....................

No, we only Blame SP for the things they did. We could blame other companies I am sure.

Smart Parts is not the only bad company out there, they were just the first. K2/WGP is right up there on my list now.
