Brass Eagle Blade Turbo Markers and Paintball Breakout Players Kits
Published February 15, 2006
Summary
CPSC records recall 06090, published February 15, 2006. Recalling firm: Brass Eagle, of Bentonville, Ark.
What's the hazard
The carbon dioxide (CO2) cartridges can be forcibly ejected out the back of the paintball marker and break the plastic screw-on cap. This poses a serious risk of injury to the paintball marker's operator, who can be hit forcefully by the CO2 cartridges or the plastic screw-on cap. Overtightening the screw-on cap after the cartridges are pierced can result in a serious impact injury.
What to do
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled Blade Turbo™ paintball marker and contact Brass Eagle to receive a free replacement screw-on cap, which is black, instead of clear.
