but Zap not only make there own paintballs but they do produce a few others so i reliably informed. . . if i remember rightly they also make the Nelson and Victory . . . . correct me if i'm wrong but i'm sure that's what i've been told!
WDP make victory, though Zap! (and this is completly theoretical) could make the actual paintballs under WDP's name. Like BE now make the revvys under the name Viewloader, when they took over.
And Nelson is made by Nelson, which is a paint factory, unlike most other paintballs, which are made by companies that also produce the components for medicines.
That's part of what makes Diablo so great. They have one focus. Paintballs. That's it. I could see RP possibly lowering prices a little bit, they had to buy the million dollar machiens any way. But Diablo, they just wanted to make better paintballs.
Just a note, 5 or 6 years ago, RP opened a factory just for paintballs. They are a completely seperate devision of the company. The guys making the paint at RP, only make the paint, other places make other products in the RP line.
accucaps make zap, as well as plenty of other 'private' labels.
victory was made by them but last i heard RPS was making it, as well as nelson (sorry dude dont belive the hype, they dont have there own factory for paintballs)
Errrr...never said they did. I said Nelson is a PAINT factory. I.e. they make PAINT! You know, the sort of stuff you use to give your home all sorts of pretty colours.
