When did ICD "pair up" with NPS? No offense, i have just never been a fan of national, they are like the black hole of paintball sucking up and compressing the heck out of any company that gets to close (or makes a decent product).

Is the promaster internally the same as a defiant/timmy? what noid does the promaster run?

As far as I know they havent teamed up. promaster is similar but not the "same". not sure on the noid.

Manike wouldent be out permoting if if it wasent NPS, and i would immagin they called the the barrel timmy threaded is because the timmy is a NPS marker, and the cocker is not.

I've long been friends with everyone at ICD, my first electro was a Bushmaster. I also made the prototype gun as a combination of timmy and bushy parts that Hawk saw and then went on to design the Promaster. Bob saw it, and went on to make the Defiant. They are not the same guns and one was designed inhouse by ICD and Hawk, the other designed inhouse by Bob and Blast. I had nothing to do with the design of the final Promaster or Defiant, other than I got a prototype to test out.

The Promaster is not the same inside as the defiant or the timmy.

NPS has been selling and distributing ICD products and had a relationship with ICD for a long time but since the whole nasty mess with SP sueing them, the relationship became even stronger with us helping to sponsor and promote teams that use their guns etc.

It's called 'timmy threads' because K2 wanted everyone to cease and desist from using their terms, cocker (tm) and autococker (tm) . Bob doesn't mind people calling their threads 'intimidator' and everyone knows the intimidator uses the same barrels as Autocockers... so that solved that problem.
