== History == === Early operations === Check It Products was associated with Glen Chon and the Southern California paintball community during the early 1990s. The business developed equipment for stock-class players, including custom pump-action pistols inspired by earlier designs such as the [[Desert Duck]] and [[Carter Boxgun]]. In historical recollections preserved on [[M. Carter Brown]], tournament player [[Derrick Obatake]] described how Glen Chon became interested in producing a commercially manufactured stock-class pistol. According to Obatake, Chon used an earlier Boxgun design as the basis for developing his own production marker.[5] The Boxgun itself had been developed through earlier work involving [[Earon Carter]] and [[Dave Loo]]. These accounts establish a design relationship between the early Southern California stock-class markers but do not establish that Check It Products manufactured the original Carter or Duck Works designs. === Super Stock === The '''Super Stock''' was one of Check It Products' earliest documented complete paintball markers. [[VintageRex]] dates the marker to 1993 and identifies Tri-J Machine as its manufacturer.[3] The Super Stock was a compact, .68-calibre, Nelson-style pump pistol intended for stock-class competition. An original manufacturer brochure advertised the marker as the '''Super Stocker Pump Pistol''' and listed a selling price of US$345.[6] The marker was also documented in the December 1995 issue of ''[[Action Pursuit Games]]'', providing contemporary evidence of its availability during the mid-1990s.[7] VintageRex records a production total of 350 examples, although this figure has not been independently verified.[3] === Expansion into aftermarket components === Check It Products subsequently expanded its range of paintball equipment. By the 2000s, the company was known for manufacturing aftermarket barrels, trigger frames and other components for existing paintball markers. A manufacturer listing maintained by [[WARPIG]], verified on 30 August 2007, identified Check It Products as a manufacturer of paintball barrels and accessories, including trigger frames.[2] A contemporary industry directory listed the company at 16921 South Western Avenue, Suite 112, Gardena, California.[1] === Later pump equipment === Check It Products also marketed pump-action equipment based on the [[WGP Sniper]] and Autococker platforms. Its documented products included the '''V2 Autococker Mini Sniper''', a pump-action marker incorporating Check It's own components. The V2 featured a stainless-steel valve assembly, adjustable regulator, Delrin pump handle, Autococker-threaded barrel and components intended for low-pressure operation.[8] Check It also offered complete pump conversion kits for Autococker-compatible markers. These products represented a continuation of the company's involvement in pump-action paintball beyond its original stock-class pistol designs.[8][9]
