    I was today years old when i realized....

    I was today years old when i realized that Lapco stands for Los Angles Paintball COmpany. I have owned lapco products, played with their stuff and know about them for years but until today i just did not put two and two together.

          I like how this thread quickly went from "today I learned" to "here's something you can learn today!"

            I knew all those except that JT was inverted. That’s cool. Who remembers wearing the early JT “bug” mask?

              Not sure I remember that one, but I did spend half a decade wearing Spectra Protius jt masks. With the little fan in the visor.

            Technically, they were "Whippersnappers", but players wouldn't trim the zip-ties, leaving the "bug antennae" look.
