Everyone now knows about Canada and paintball....
take a look at this equation:

paintball guns = firearms
paintballs = ammunition

If this is true, diablo direct, a well known paint ball manufacturer of top quality paintballs and guns (like the matrix) is introuble.
Will the US ever see diablo paint again? because it is a pain to get a weapon or ammunition across the canadian border. Wayne D was interrorgated for bingin a broken air soft pistol across the border.
What to do?!?!

Diablo does have several (3 I think) branch's in the US and one in europe.
Also the matrix isn't made by diablo so don't worry abou it not being made anymore.

While a Marker might get firearms status - paintballs are not "ammunition" they remain "Softgels" same as bath beads and vitamin E pills.
Diablo Paint will have no problem.

The US will not have any restrictions on the markers - so you can still get the Matrix should Canada screw its self.

They made a provision for air guns not being fire arms anyway, so paintball guns dont = firearms, and therefore paintballs arent... well you get the idea
