A new paintball gun manufacture has surfaced on the paintball scene and taken the pump community by storm. Known officially as AVRATECH Industries Inc., the company has been focused on their debut pump paintball marker. Check out the AV R7 paintball gun:
Inspired by the Nelspot 007, the AV-R7 is a very modern (and well modified) pump paintball gun that has been hand crafted in British Columbia, Canada. A bit of paintball history for you — the Nelspot 007 was the first gun used to play paintball. Originally the 007 had been designed to mark trees and was later adopted for use in a game of capture the flag. The “Retro 7” as it has become officially known, debuted on the mcarterbrown.com paintball community to critical acclaim and over 60 preorders were immediately placed.
