PAINTBALL GUN WITH CONTROL SWITCHES ON THE GRIP

摘要

A paintball gun is made with a control circuit controlling the operation of the gun. The control circuit is provided substantially as a stiff circuit board installed through an opening of the gun housing. The circuit board performs some novel functions including storing and replaying sound clips from stored digital files, keeping track of the number of paintballs left and providing visual indications to a user. A button is provided on the gun handle and in alignment with a control switch on the printed circuit board. Pushing the button causes the activation of the control switch. The button may be implemented as a portion of the handle that is flexible. When this portion is depressed, it flexes inward to activate the control switch.
