Editing National Paintball Supply (section)

=== Empire Paintball ===

During the early 2000s, National Paintball Supply developed [[Empire Paintball]] as a separate equipment brand.

The Empire name was first used commercially in 2002, according to United States trademark records.

By 2003, Empire was being promoted through dedicated trade-show facilities at major American tournaments.

Contemporary WARPIG coverage of the 2003 PSP Philadelphia Open identified Empire as a new National Paintball Supply product line.[10]

Empire subsequently developed electronic loaders, clothing, protective equipment and other products.

The brand remained part of National Paintball Supply's portfolio until the 2006 asset sale.
