I heard that the reason all the shops and websites havent had anything in stock is b\c national paintball is buying out PMI and a couple other companys?! wondering if this is true and if anyone knows when its gonna happen?

Maybe, but a lot of products are out of stock that aren't even made by NPS companies. Tanks are out of stock because of a fiber shortage or something like that.

NPS is trying to pick up companies, and yes they have got a few.

But how does this matter if somethings instock or not? If NPS is trying to buy a company the company does not pull its items till about two days before the deal goes down...thats if they pull the items at all. Even after NPS picks a company up they don't pull products....think about it...buy a company and then pull all the items so you make no money...

Some items sell faster then others and many times stores only buy a small amount of item(s) because they do not sell very well. Face it if you have 10k+ in invintory you want to make sure all of it is going to sell and not sit around while the price drops as newer and better items come out.

Pretty much what you heard was B/S about stores not having things because of NPS. Know why? Because other suppliers have a good amount of gear in their warehouses from the company...So APS, EMONEY, CO, or anyother supllier could fill those orders for stores...so yeah bunch of BS. Though NPS is trying to buy a few different companys and/or pick them up as exclusive distrobution rights.

The guy i talked to said that the company he mainly go's through is being bought out so they dont want to restock there warehouse, and NPS wont restock it until they have full ownership of the company! but thats just what i heard. :P

NPS is merging (buying out) PMI but that doesn't mean things should be out of stock. From what I've heard, PMI has terrible inventory control so if you're looking for PMI stuff, it might be out of stock but anything in the NPS warehouses is still operaring as usual. NPS plans to "clean it up" in the PMI warehouses.
