Editing Nu-Line Industries

'''Nu-Line Industries''' (also styled '''NuLine''') was an American paintball equipment manufacturer associated with the '''Bruizer''' range of mechanical semi-automatic paintball markers. Active during the late 1990s, the company marketed several Bruizer models, including the Bandit, Outlaw, Fugitive, Wiseguy and Pro. The Bruizer product line was acquired by [[Worr Game Products]] (WGP) by 2000.[1][2]

== History ==

Nu-Line Industries was active by October 1999, when contemporary [[WARPIG]] coverage identified the company as the manufacturer of the Bruizer marker range.

At the [[1999 NPPL World Cup]] in Kissimmee, Florida, Nu-Line collaborated with [[Paintball Junkies]] and [[Unique Sporting]] to provide entertainment for tournament attendees. The companies arranged performances by the Southern California band 4 O'Clock Friday during the event.[1]

=== Bruizer markers ===

The Bruizer range consisted primarily of .68-calibre, mechanical semi-automatic markers designed for recreational paintball.

Models used an open-bolt operating system and removable barrels. The range included several configurations with different body designs, grips and accessories.[3]

Bruizer markers were also used as rental equipment at commercial paintball fields. In February 2000, BattleZone Paintball in Cleveland, Georgia, advertised Nu-Line Bruizer Bandit II semi-automatic markers as part of its rental fleet.[4]

=== Acquisition by Worr Game Products ===

By October 2000, [[Worr Game Products]], manufacturer of the [[Autococker]], had acquired the Bruizer marker line.

Contemporary coverage of the [[2000 NPPL World Cup]] described the acquisition as expanding WGP's product range into the beginner and intermediate marker market.[2]

The transaction allowed WGP to offer an alternative to its established Autococker range, which was primarily associated with competitive and experienced players.

Nu-Line Industries continued to appear in paintball retailer listings during 2001. A March 2001 listing for Precision Paintball in Virginia identified the business as an authorised Nu-Line Industries dealer.[5]

The precise date of Nu-Line's establishment, details of the Bruizer acquisition and the company's eventual cessation of operations have not been independently established.

== Products ==

Nu-Line Industries produced several models under the Bruizer name.

Documented markers included:

* '''Bruizer Sport'''
* '''Bruizer Bandit'''
* '''Bruizer Bandit II'''
* '''Bruizer Outlaw'''
* '''Bruizer Fugitive'''
* '''Bruizer Wiseguy'''
* '''Bruizer Pro'''
* '''Bruizer Pro XP'''
* '''Bruizer S.O.B.'''

The historical paintball equipment archive [[VintageRex]] identifies these models as mechanical, open-bolt, .68-calibre semi-automatic markers, although individual production dates remain largely undocumented.[3]

=== Bruizer Pro XP ===

The '''Bruizer Pro XP''' featured an aluminium receiver, removable 10-inch barrel, external velocity adjustment and a multi-port Venturi-style bolt.

Its documented specifications also included an anti-double-feed system, a 45-style grip assembly and a low-pressure chamber.

The marker was available in several finishes, including black, silver and blue.[6]

=== Bruizer S.O.B. ===

The '''Bruizer S.O.B.''' was another semi-automatic model featuring an aluminium receiver, external velocity adjustment and a removable barrel.

Its documented equipment included a polymer 45-style grip assembly, an anti-double-feed mechanism and an aluminium spring guide.[7]
