White Wolf Airsmithing - WWA / WEVO paintball

[peter]

Hi!

I'm looking for a former paintball airsmith - as in the title - WWA ie. White Wolf Airsmithing.

Does anyone have contact details?

As far as I searched, the owner's name was Joe White (?)

Thanks!
Cheers!

Long gone as far as I know, so likely near impossible

That's a name I haven't seen in the last 15-20 years. I know that towards the end of his tenure WWA ran an eBay shop, but it appears to be defunct. I have not seen any recent mention of them anywhere, I'm not sure if they're on any social media either. Good luck!

I haven't contacted Joe since 2004....

The email was:

WlfwRose@aol.com

This info may be as useful as a CD offering 100 free hours of AOL service, but there you go =P

:-)

Thanks! Will try ;-)

[peter]

yeah, that's a long shot and crazy idea, but I hope that someone have the 3d models of that fancy phantom one piece feeds ;-)

would be nice to reintoduce them :-)

I have one I would sell. It’s gloss black and mint.

I knew him from AOL paintball chat days. Lived in Chico and drove a VW. Sold him a few model 98s and a flatline via money orders.

Thanks!

"scrodmaster" - I found somewhere that this maybe a nickname from eBay (?)

Luck will be needed ;-)

Thx!

15 years gone.

I kept in touch with him a little after his website went down as we went back to the AOL chat days but most of the emails he had are long gone.

Likely easier to buy one and copy it. Most guys will never give up their files for free.

You could make a revised version of one. They are bigger than they need to be. BST made a tube like feed. But nobody has done the wave style except WWA. Like I said I have one I would let go if you need one for spec / design. I wouldn’t do an exact copy of it. But it feeds well something the Stripes feed doesn’t do. So it important to get your parabolic feed ramp just right. Feed tube Length matters too because if it’s in between ball lengths you can get jams. I think an aluminum phantom style feed tube would sell well. Especially if you do a cool aluminum feed gate that takes your standard CCI style gate fingers. BST had a oring design gate I really didn’t like.

If you give it a lil bit of an elevation say about a 1/4” lift to clear mid/ half block markers you can snag the CCM market at the same time.

Also wevo had no association with white wolf air smithing

[peter]

ok, thanks! Didn't know that. Appreciate the feedback! 👍

thanks for your input!

I'll try to take it into consideration, but at the moment the whole project is rather a long shot ;-)

I have sent an email to the address above, waiting for a reply :-)

But the main problem is that I'm not a machinist, unfortunately. However, recently I had a gig with a CNC machine company. They showed me around their machine park and I saw some of their products. As a layman, I was truly impressed.
Later on, while in a pub, I showed them some pics of paintball-related stuff, wondering whether it was possible for them to produce such things.

Generally, and while with beer ;-), their opinion was:
86 phantom grip frame 90% - positive,
these wwa feeds -probably also possible,
blind karnivor bodies - rather no (yes, it was a far stretch from my side )

Wevo was a great shop. Whatever happened to that guy? Hope he doing well.

[Brokeass_baller]

Here's what I found on the BBB. That's extremely likely his home address, as he was a small shop, and, well, Zillow shows a house. Hasn't been sold recently so he might still live there.

[Pumpytrilly1]

Always wondered what happened to him. I think I still have one of his barrel tips.

[warbosschoppa]

Funny this pops up as I am looking for one of his barrel backs
