A lot has happened in paintball during the past week while the 68Caliber staff was on vacation for the July 4th Holiday.

We’ll be posting all of the news we received during the past week as individual articles.  However, we also thought it would be a good idea to provide you all with a quick summary by way of catch-up, which you can see right here.

EDITORIAL NOTE:  We know that we’re having some bugs with our weekly newsletter – not all of the articles are coming through (folks are getting weekly news updates with one or two articles instead of the several dozen they should be seeing).  We’re working on it and hope to have this fixed sometime this week, although the fixes may not take effect until next week’s mailing, so please be patient.  And thanks for your support!.
