It is NOT defamation/slander/libel if it is true. The -false- statement also has to have the effect of changing peoples opinion of the person or entity. Since nobody gives a shazaam about paintball and will probably not ever go to the store anyway, it is NOT libel.

If is TRUE it is NEVER defamation/slander/libel under ANY circumstances.

I would give them the benefit of being ignorant and correct them, then send in another spoof and see if they continue to lie. If they do, then they're being malicious. I'm guessing they're just retarded.

Does this mean that the uninformed dipshit can be sued by AONW for saying they closed?

Granted, ridiculous. But a valid question, yes?

I think the store he was referring to was just down the street next to that grocery store; funny thing was they sold crap guns life the $50 ones on eBay that shoot .12's and arc about 25 feet with no wind. If those were the high-end ones he was referring too...
I do hope that after all this discreditable shuffling we may be taken into action. It has a wonderful way of reconciling a man with himself: and with everybody else, sometimes. - 1st Lt. James Dillon

For the sake of laughing it was NW Ambush in Battle Ground. The other part of the story wad apparently there is 3 shipping containers sitting in Seattle full of airsoft guns. Nobody will take them cause they are banned.

Since eyes on said it was ok, he will be representing me in court......right? Lol.

It was hard for me to correct this cat just due to his comments. I sure hope he wasn't the owner but ya never know. Just ordered my lead bb guns, hope you guys don't mind me shooting them at ya. BTW, they both shoot right around 2500fps and are a hair shy of 6mm. More like 5.56....lol

He's just bitter that every paintballer with half a brain is leaving the 'sport' for some 'hobby' that doesn't give you bro-points because every shot doesn't feel like getting punched by the boniest knuckles you can find for the job. I guess we're just not 'extreme' enough for that crowd. :lol:

Hahaha, I went there to get my tanks filled as my office is just around the corner at Dollars Corner. Lets just say I don't go there anymore...

I go to xtremez down on Fourth Plain that I like, always some cool cats that work there. They used to have quite a few airsoft guns also. Plus Bottle fills are $1 for any size CO2 Tanks :)

I think everyone who lives nearby should go in and ask a similar question, and post what the guy says here. It's quality entertainment. Then, after we get a dozen or so goofy stories from him, somebody slip him the URL for this thread. Good times will be had.

Or I could give them a call since I worked with Mr. Ulstad for about 15 years. He is a good guy and an air force veteran.

You know that rumors get out of hand, I'm sure if someone who wasn't a turf went in and set them straight they would have knowledge.

To be honest, coming from a paintball player/ ex-pb industry employee, 50% of paintball related stores know as much about pb as Andy & Bax knows about airsoft :p


What are you talking about? Andy and Bax is the shit :D


I like their gear and what not (non airsoft)
But come on, over priced spring m14?
They were pushing a sale on me and telling me thats theeee best. Haha
Not to mention, they gave the wrong information.

I am not spreading rumors, and for someone to tell me exactly what they told me for whatever reason.....ie to convert me to paintball, buy something from his shop...is absurd.

I mean a person who works in a business and or owns a business should'nt talk out of ones a$$ and tell someone who may know everything, but could know nothing, something that is blatantly no true. I went in there to inquire about local fields and the possibility of getting airsoft involved and he role me that it is banned......What does that say about the business character this business upholds?
