== Paintball markers ==

=== Black Knight ===

The '''Black Knight''' was a .68-calibre mechanical semi-automatic paintball marker using a Montneel-style valve system.

It featured a lightweight polymer frame, direct-feed arrangement and removable threaded barrel.

The manufacturer's original advertisement promoted several features, including:

* High-strength polymer frame designed to reduce marker weight.
* Semi-automatic firing mechanism.
* All-weather valve system.
* Removable barrel and simplified field-stripping arrangement.
* Internal construction intended to minimise loose components during maintenance.

The advertisement claimed that the marker weighed less than two pounds and promoted its suggested retail price as less than US$160.[3]
