Paintball Express was operating from 1 Buscomb Avenue, Henderson, by January 1995. A notice published in the ''New Zealand Gazette'' recorded an application by Paintball Express concerning the approval of paintball eye-protection goggles.[1]

Contemporary correspondence identified '''Lukas Kruesi''' as the proprietor of an Auckland paintball import and retail business associated with Paintball Express. The business sponsored the [[Saints (New Zealand paintball team)|Saints]], and Kruesi also played for the team.[2]

By late 1995, Paintball Express advertised locations in Auckland, Wellington and Sydney. Its New Zealand headquarters remained at 1 Buscomb Avenue, while the Wellington outlet was listed at 312 Mitchell Street, Brooklyn. The Australian address was Suite 3, 28 Langston Place, Epping, Sydney.[3]

A South Island outlet at 19 Fitzroy Street, Dunedin, was listed in 1996.[4]
