Battle report from the first leg in the Swedish Paintball Championship............

After a long winter and a lot of preparation, it was finally time to see if belonged in Division 1 or not. GRIN Stockholm was founded 13 years ago and for this season we did a reboot of the team. In the beginning of this season we took in some new young players and our hope was that the mix of young hungry players and old experience players would take us to the top. Our goal this season is to win Division 1 and now it was finally time to make it happen.


The first leg of the Swedish Paintball Championship (PBSM) was held in Trolle, in southern Sweden. Our first game was a hard-fought one against Generation Joy. Unfortunately we lost it 1-2 and got thrown down into the losers bracket. Not the start we wished for, but we kept our heads high and continued to fight our way through the bracket. We won the following 6 games and ended up in the semi-finals against BFP. The game was close, but when the buzzer rang we were short of one point and lost the game 1-2.


Overall we’re satisfied with our performance and taking the third place. The only two games we lost were against the winning team and the team placing second. It feels like the team got a good start this season and our focus the coming weeks will be a lot of practice so we’ll be well prepared for the next leg in Örebro. 

Also, we’re really happy with our custom GEO 3.5s that ran flawlessly the whole weekend.
Many thanks to those who made this season possible for us:


Planet Eclipse, Hypersports, Spelapaintball.com, Anthrax, BullitProof Monkey, G.I. Sportz



Another great performance from the Emortal Army... 

Well Done Grin !!

TECH BULLETIN: CS3 HPR Body O-Rings ⚙️

Whenever we hear reports of any issues with our products – no matter how small – we like to jump on it as soon as possible, try our best to understand the root of the problem and then provide a definitive solution. Over the last couple of weeks we have received reports of some inconsistent air leaks from the frame and POPS area of the CS3. Every marker that we produce is thoroughly tested prior to packaging and shipping, but unfortunately these leaks have developed after shipping, and normally at temperatures below those that the markers experience in testing. This is generally down to contraction – or shrinkage – of seals that occurs as the temperature drops. The leak can be heard from around the grips or, with the grips removed, from the Regulator Hole A in the side of the frame. It can also be heard from the join between the bottom of the frame and the POPS. We have traced these leaks to what appears to be a bath of bottom tolerance 016 NBR70 o-rings used on the brass HPR Body (see

PSP World Cup...#GOTEAM!

It's officially the week of the world's biggest tournament paintball event on the Planet, the PSP World Cup in Orlando-Florida and we cannot wait! With so much up for grabs this year for our teams we're super excited to see how they all perform. For some, it's about finishing what they started in 2014, for others it's about putting the team in the best possible position for 2015's first event. To help our teams build some momentum this week, beyond providing them with equipment that looks great and performs flawlessly, we thought we'd have some fun with them on social media and generate some online rivalry between them, as well as getting some fan support along the way. It's simple. We've created a number of World Cup graphics for each team that works with all kinds of awesome imagery. Simply share the image, use their hashtags and cheer them on in the real world at Cup. What's that? You don't follow them or us on Instagram? Well, her
