Paintball has always been a game and sport that ’ s welcoming to everyone . However , even our welcoming attitude and belief that paintball can truly be for everyone has its limitations , especially where safety and the tolerance for the sting of incoming paintballs is concerned . The addition of lowimpact paintball like . 50 caliber paintballs and paintball guns to fire them , along with spring-powered pump paintball guns like Valken Gotcha and JT Splatmaster products were a huge benefit to the game , as they and their associated products allowed paintball parks and game fields to welcome both a younger audience , and anyone else who might simply want the adrenalin rush of paintball without the impact of . 68 caliber paintballs . Now , the game has another new and amazing family of products we can use to welcome young players and new players of all ages to our world at a remarkable price – GelBlaster ! The GelBlaster product line distributed to the world of paintball by
Valken Sports brings safe , clean , affordable , low-impact FUN for all ages to the local paintball park , the back yard and just about anywhere else !
At the core of the GelBlaster product line is the projectile used to blast at one-another – the Gellet . GelBlaster Gellets are tiny , super absorbent polymer pellets that are hydrated by simply dumping them into a bucket of water the night before the game , or at least 2-3 hours before . That ’ s right – you pour your ammo into a bucket of water and leave them to absorb water and swell . In their dry form , tens of thousands of these tiny Gellets can be packaged in bags that take up almost no space and will last practically forever . Once hydrated , Gellets ready for blasting can last for weeks or more , and the price you pay for this environmentally safe , non-staining , shatters-on-impact gel ammo is miniscule !
