Milsim was established in 2009 by paintball innovator Richmond Italia, along with the assistance of Bill and Adam Gardner. Some truly remarkable designs and engineering have resulted, and the start of a new paintball revolution has begun! Bringing G.I. Milsim’s creative ambitions to reality called for a deeply seasoned and imaginative engineering group. Smart Parts’ American designers and engineers collaborated with two brilliant designers from Asia and several more from Canada to bring the project to fruition. After intense developments and testing, G.I. Milsim has delivered an inspiring and remarkable line of .50 caliber products. Tremendous G.I. Milsim performance, function and convenience will usher in a new era of excitement to the great game of paintball! From purpose- built WoodsBall and Scenario products to inspiring Sport and Tournament rigs, G.I. Milsim will set the new benchmark of excellence. So what’s all the fuss with 50 Cal? The benefits of 50 cal are almost endless, from reduced operating costs to freight savings, from accuracy to less impact, the benefits span from the manufacturer to the field operator to the paintball player. Accuracy and Operation 50 Cal markers utilise the same technology as 68 calibre. Providing markers with the most modern valve and operational technologies. Accuracy and operation is not compromised. Trajectory and distance is not compromised with ball flight being equally achieved by both 50 and 68 cal. Weather conditions also do not impede 50 cal performance. The marking capability of the 50 Cal paintball does not significantly reduce and produces only a slightly smaller “splat” than the 68 Cal paintball. Tests on a 68 Cal paintball show that a significant amount of paintball fill is lost when blown out on impact due to the volume of the paintball. Impact The 50 Cal Paintball requires less joules of energy to be propelled over the same distance as a 68 Cal paintball, less joules of energy pertaining to paintball impact equals far less hurt and bruising. This leads directly to the .50 Caliber being safer on paintball goggles and other equipment. A 68 Cal paintball requires around 12 Joules of energy compared to that of a 50 Cal requiring only 5 joules. A big difference. Cost Savings Cost savings are made immediately for both the field operator and the player and represent huge savings. In summary cost savings would be made in the following areas: AIR CONSUMPTION In field tests conducted Internationally, a 60% reduction in air or Co2 consumption was achieved in comparison with 68 Cal markers. This advantage alone has a huge impact on both players and field operators. Players can remain in the game longer before refilling is required. Paintball operators may not require to re-charge air bottles during a days play with rec-ball customers, therefore eliminating long periods of down-time. STORAGE 50 Cal paintballs require approximately 50% less storage space than 68 Cal. This means paintball operators can minimise their storage areas or hold double the paint. It also means that players have the convenience of carrying more paint on their person, without the inconvenience of waiting until games end or being served. Hoppers and pods can hold more paint effectively doubling the amount of paint that can be carried, more convenient for the player and potential increased sales for the operator. 4 SHIPPING Always a huge cost factor. The 50% saving on space means that twice the amount of paintballs can be shipped on a pallet, therefore lowering the shipping component in transport costs. Crunch the numbers Both field operators and players should crunch the numbers and consider the cost savings and benefits of 50 Cal conversion. In today’s competitive paintball environment every dollar counts. Savings made per week on paintball costs, air and co2, labour and handling etc, accumulated over a 12 month period will no doubt reflect a huge cost saving. For paintball operators, in a short period of time the cost of conversion to 50 Cal will not only pay for itself but will start to provide the prospect of increased savings and or profits.
