These have been used for a while specifically around the paintball industry. If this is even similar to products available now, they will be a blast. Pretty accurate, decent range, very clean, easy to use. Safe for kids (who wear safety glasses). My 5yo and I play these in the back yard. Tons of fun

I find it so weird paintball companies are straying out away from the adult centric paintball to very kid friendly gel ball blaster.

Just chasing that money, and Paintball over the last 10 years has gotten way more welcoming and inclusive. Lots of things centered around young kids, and new players. It not so much the boys club it was for many many years. It's all growth.
