Editing Armson (section)

=== Paintball markers ===

Armson manufactured the [[Armson Rifle]], a .68-calibre pump-action marker using a Nelson-style operating system.

VintageRex dates the model to 1991 and documents its direct-feed configuration, removable barrel and constant-air operation.[1]

During the early 1990s, Armson and Pro-Team Products began developing a semi-automatic marker intended to provide an alternative to existing designs.

Development of the [[Armson Semi]] began in 1993. The design incorporated a blow-forward operating system based on technology licensed from [[Airgun Designs]]. Unlike the regulated [[Automag]], the Armson design controlled its firing characteristics through the volume of its air chamber.[2][5]

The marker was released in late 1996.

Contemporary reporting from the [[1996 NPPL World Cup]] documented Pro-Team Products exhibiting the Armson Semi alongside its [[Micromag]] range. The marker featured a blow-forward bolt, an expansion chamber incorporated into the grip, an Armson Pro-Series barrel and a sight rail.[6]
