B.E. = Brass Eagle

Anyway,

Think y'all find that B.E. is run by accountants.

Just look at what happened with Viewloader. When B.E. took em over, production and material costs we're slashed, then all of a sudden ya needed to buy 67 revvy shells a tournament cos they were pants and kept snapping.

d'errrrrr cos it's cheaper to use thinner lower grade plastic, hence production costs are lower they make more profit. Plus they can then sell you replacement revvy shells for the ones that keep breaking. I mean it's not as though there's hundreds of companies you can go to instead to buy Hoppers.

I can not remember seeing a B.E. product that was worth using and I have been playing for fifteen years!

Selling any markers in High Street stores is irresponsible, Its started in this country with shops like Argos.

Viewloader and JT were bought by B.E. with a quality product range in place. I believe that there was an agreement that they would not interfere for a certain length of time.

Black Revvy shells are fine, the clear and colours have always been brittle.

As for Eggs, my son bought an Egg 1 and the feed neck broke off second time he used it. One of our team has an Egg 2 and it feels no stronger.
