Editing AKALMP (section)

=== Excalibur ===

AKALMP began developing its own electronic paintball marker in October 1998.

The resulting [[AKA Excalibur]] was an electronically controlled, closed-bolt marker featuring an integrated pneumatic system.

Unlike conventional Autococker-based electronic conversions, the Excalibur was designed with its pneumatic components and firing mechanism incorporated within the marker body.

The design used a low-pressure Tornado valve, pneumatically operated hammer and ram mechanisms, and electronically controlled solenoid valves.

AKALMP exhibited the Excalibur at the 2000 [[International Amateur Open]], where contemporary reporting identified it as a low-pressure electropneumatic marker entering production.[5][6]

The Excalibur was subsequently offered in several configurations, including revised 2003 and 2004 models.
