| 20110232618 | PROJECTILE LAUNCHER WITH REDUCED RECOIL AND ANTI-JAM MECHANISM - A projectile launcher having a pneumatic assembly that reduces recoil. The launcher may include a gas storage chamber that is filled with compressed gas and then selectively vented to propel projectiles. In some cases, an electronic control circuit may be provided to selectively vent the gas storage chamber. In some embodiments, the launcher may include an anti jam feature that reduces breakage of projectiles during firing. | 09-29-2011 |
| 20110120437 | NON-LETHAL PISTOL - A non-lethal pistol for propelling projectiles, such as paintballs. The pistol has a body with a grip portion and a barrel. A canister of propellant received in the body to supply a valve assembly with propellant that is selectively vented to propel projectiles through the barrel. The pistol includes a firing mechanism adapted to actuate the valve assembly. | 05-26-2011 |
| 20100252014 | COMBINATION NON-LETHAL PROJECTILE LAUNCHER AND FLASH LIGHT - An apparatus for firing a non-lethal projectile comprises a body with an internal cavity. A light source may be disposed in the cavity to illuminate an area outside the body. A firing mechanism may also be provided to cause a projectile to be propelled through the body. | 10-07-2010 |
| 20090194088 | NON-LETHAL PROJECTILE LAUNCHER WITH SPLIT RECEIVER - A non-lethal projectile launcher (such as a paintball marker) having a clamshell type receiver. One side of the receiver may be split into a front portion and a rear portion that can be independently detached from the other side. This allows the rear portion to be detached to provide access to internal components without requiring removal of the entire side of the receiver. | 08-06-2009 |
| 20090120420 | Paintball marker - A paintball marker with a barrel that is coupled to a receiver. A valve arrangement is provided to selectively vent gas to propel projectiles through the barrel responsive to actuation of a firing mechanism. The marker may include a tool box that is capable of being coupled with the receiver. In some embodiments, the tool box resembles a magazine that feeds projectiles into the receiver. | 05-14-2009 |
| 20090025701 | PAINTBALL MARKER WITH USER SELECTABLE FIRING MODES - A paintball marker with a barrel that is coupled to a receiver. The marker may include a grip assembly in which an electronic circuit is disposed. The electronic circuit is configured to actuate launching of a projectile responsive to the trigger moving to the firing position. | 01-29-2009 |
