Empire Bullets Paint

[Kitty]

So here in Hawaii a paint I see alot of is Bullets, a brand of paint from kee action sports or empire.

With todays societies view of paintball, (especially with the recent stance from the German government towards paintball) I begin to wonder what type of image brands like these are sending out. With the paintball world trying so desperatly to seperate itself from a sport that simulates death and killing what is your opinion on this?

Do you think kee should have been more responsible when naming their brand of paint, or do you see it as a bit of fun?

Discuss.

I don't tend to look too deep into thing's like this and would probably view it as a kind of gimmick. But there are those who would and without an understanding or clue about paintball would completely take it the wrong way. Anyway what do da Bullets shoot like

Honestly - it seemed like they shot ok.
I however didn't buy them, because of the name and picked up some silver instead.

Could be a good marketing ploy aimed at the younger generation of baller's.

Yup, MCB has been up in arms twice now. Facefull "ignored" their emails the first round, but there's some question in wether the magazine had already been printed the second time round.
Either way, it's not healthy.
