Support Paintball History at   / paintballhistory   Bud Orr, of Worr Game Products talks about his paintball history from 1986/87 to about the mid 1990s and the evolution of the Autococker, the Paintball Mask, Paintball Safety and much more. Giovanni D'Egidio joins in the conversation to talk about some of the achievements Orr brought to Paintball. Through the video we cover, Autococking Sniper Serial 2 (Sniper 1 Serial 2 converted to the Autococker platform), The AGS rifle and how it was not only the first semi automatic marker Bud shot, but also how it inspired him in the years to come to work on the semi automatic design. Bud talks about Jamil Zainasheff and their work in developing the Autococker and how all the components had to work well and options they developer on that journey. Bud goes on to talk a little about the barrel plug and the 3 orings they use and holes and how that hole, if left hollow and un obstructed would stop a paintball by using air pressure to slow down the ball. Gio joins in the conversation at this point and mentions Bud's role in the ASTM for paintball and the barrel plug and barrel bag. Bud then talks about the Goggs paintball marker he and Russell Maynard developed, working with Tom Kaye, Mike Casady and others. Find more history on Bud at https://paintballhistory.com/bud-orr/
