Tacamo - Another Paintball Industry Casualty


Today is another sad day in paintball. The Tacamo Paintball
Guns
and all parts and accessories are obsolete and discontinued. If you need parts or accessories, I encourage players to stock up now. We do not have one item left or in stock and all pages will come down before the weekend. Please do not order anything from the Red Dot Paintball site because we will only have to refund your order.

How could this happen, well it is another casualty in the paintball industry. Many of you may remember that Archon was purchased by Procaps (Draxxus). As I posted before many of the lines of paint that were produced by Archon (Zap, Spank, Chronic) have slowly been disappearing. Well, the disappearance trick was performed again as Procaps/Draxxus continues to redefine itself. The latest is they want to mainly focus on stores and fields for mainly paint and goggles. Very little else from what I am hearing. It will be interesting to see if Tippmann continues to use them as a distributor that is not stocking their items? Who knows...what we do know is that there are less and less options for paintball supplies. It seems that nearly every month another loss is encountered.
