Damn...gone too soon, that's sad to hear. But what an incredible legacy.

Can't remember where I read it, but long time ago I remember reading about the Angel prototype John was creating, and how it was spread out over a table and the challenge of making that all work inside the small sized package of a paintball marker.

He passed away about 5 weeks ago. I'm not sure how this is just now making the MCB News, unfortunately.

It says something about paintball that we've reached an age where the founders are passing.

Hard to believe it's been 55 years now since the first game.

45(1981) is more like it. You must've been using metric math.

True that!

Going senile more like...
