But pepperstiks are good, and the paintball world has to learn how to do business. If they did then SP wouldnt be able to do all this, but if you suck at business then you deserved to get sued, especially a big company like some of these. Protect your self, isnt that in business 101? PATENT YOU STUFF PEOPLE PLEASE!
