    Nelson Paint available for direct purchase again..

    It was suggested I post here from a thread in the automag sub - sub - sub forum. might make some people happy. I know i was.
    they have a shiny new website and everything. welcome news for me anyway. always had great luck with their paint, and was super bummed when I looked to buy some a couple months ago. just ordered a case of anarchy.

      Well damn, look at that.

      Been shooting Nelson recently, great to see Anarchy available again. The blend I got I guess is called AG-1 for magfed/tactical apps but still great roundball with no seams.

      Too bad it's the end of the season and I have a mountain of paint in my basement already.

          Woohoo!

          All the paint I have shot in the past year has stank.

            If anyone local has some I would be very interested to see it in person.
            It used to be great... But 115 a case after shipping is a lot. If it is truly exceptional I might get some just for stock class play.

            I haven't had paint that was really truly excellent in probably ten years.

              I havenโ€™t ordered from the newest batch, but in my experience the Anarchy has always been worth the high cost.

            I'mma gonna cry in my corner thinking about Gater Black. I miss that stuff. That lovely black shell with the neon green fill! Oh, how I miss those days.

              I used to love that stuff back in the day, but now I feel like I'd have a hard time following the shell in the woods.

                Anyone here have experience with their Precision paint? I used to use Anarchy all the time, but have never used Precision. For half the price I am wondering if itโ€™s worth it.

                  In my experience with Nelson the key is virgin-shell paint. The cheaper stuff is good for cheap, but the virgin shell is what makes it so MMMMBBYYEAH

                  Funny/not funny story- my buddy found out about this a few weeks back when we played at a local venue. They had a price increase, and a massive one at that. $22/bag for paint... and it was the Precision. My buddy & I were questioning it later in the day, so he looked it up and found Nelson's site. Needless to say, we were pretty upset at the huge markup. I'm not going back if they're going to gouge like that.

                  It's not terrible. The fill is a bit watery but they fly reasonably straight. Probably not the best for pump, but I'd say it's worth the $40/case for semi-auto. I've paid $60 for worse.

                      Anyone know if they offer shipping discounts for multiple cases? Maybe a Northeast group buy?

                        The webpage says free standard shipping with orders over $2,500. That's roughly 32 cases of anarchy. I'd be in for ordering but the next time I'll be heading south will be for Reaperball, and prob won't be heading back south until spring...

                      I'll post a full report. fingers crossed they have kept up their usual high standards, and that its at least in the .688 range.

                      making shit in america and in general is not cheap. we have been living in a pretty big bubble and its slowly deflating. Nelson paint co is still family run. if their paints anything like i remember it they have my money over these other idiot companies.

                      fortunately most of my play is pump- when we do do semi's its way low key compared to what i see some people shoot on commercial fields in a day.

                      wrote them a nice e-mail saying how happy I was to see it back online and would they consider a run of .690 paint ๐Ÿ™‚

                      seriusly - I would consider purchasing through my business and re- selling a skid of ultra premium .690 paint if enough committment was made through here to get rid of it quick. my understanding is that no special tooling is required to change the paint size and do a run. I plan to keep bugging them about it.

                        Reasonably consistent .690 paint would be a game changer, wow.

                        Iโ€™ve ordered four cased now and shot through two plinking and playing. I really like the stuff all Cases Iโ€™ve gotten have different lot numbers. All were very constistant in size - a little larger than graffiti. Super thick fill, slightly thicker shell. Holds up in my automags phantoms, sl-68โ€™s autocockers and snipers.

                        Just wish it was .690 and locally available but Iโ€™m working on both!
