I thought this was very nice of Tom Kaye, the shoebox compressor inventor

They are giving away their 1000th compressor.

When someone orders serial#1000 they will send a refund check for the compressor and shipping back with the compressor.

They are very near that number, I won't say exactly which number but very close, so one of you sitting on the fence might get very lucky.

Tom is to be commended for promoting the proliferation of PCPs and spreading that aspect of the sport. He made it very affordable for people to own one. We need more inventors like Tom

Here is the description on the website...

Not cool, Steve. :)

My desire to go with a pigmy tank and shoebox + my well-established gambling problem gives me little chance of controlling myself.

Thanks, buddy!

Excuse my French but, that's one HELL of a deal and

April 5 2012, 5:39 PM 

pretty much unheard of now a days with anything. So that is truly great of Tom to give away the 1000th unit. WOW!

For those that don't own one, this a great incentive to buy one.

I think it was a great invention as well.. slow but it works..

I just settle in and do the air thing...also no problems with putting it charging up and shooting some from the same place, so you can do both..

Tom is a great guy!

I always tell people to get a shoebox, makes Air gun shooting a bunch more fun! and you could not ask for a nicer guy than Tom to deal with! He takes time out for video's and you can talk to him by phone or email! I have emailed him some questions in the past, and he gets back to you in record time! What does this mean to me? Quality product and parts, and the best of service, It just doesn't get any better! No I don't know Tom personally but when you buy his product you feel like you do! Thanks for a great product Tom!

Tom Kaye is a Living Legend

April 5 2012, 6:12 PM 

in the paintball world. He is a genius when it comes to regulators and inventing.

For those who do not know he is the inventor of the AutoMag paintball gun that took the sport of paintball by storm so many years ago.

Glad to see him back in the game. I bet when he got into making the Shoebox he did not expect such strong showing in the airgun world. happy.gif

Keep him in business boys and it will only get better

Funny ......

April 5 2012, 6:33 PM 

I wasn't even into paintball and had heard of Tom Kaye.
I guess I expected more people to know who Tom was.
The airgun guy's I talked to were like "who".....LOL

Forgot to mention a few things.....
He has received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Paintball Industry.
Started with little more than a dream and without a real shop managed to get things going.

He's a lot deeper than just Paintball and compressors though.
He has been accomplished in many things.

Sorry Tom they will catch on.

Proud to have him back at the Arkansas show again.

April 5 2012, 6:25 PM 

He really is a great guy.
I look forward to visiting with him again.

I was one of the early ShoeBox customers.
Been filling 88cf and 66cf for awhile now.
Not to long of a wait to top off from 3000 to 4500.
I love the independence.

i bought one of his early ones(# 42) and when it developed an air leak 4-5 months later, i contacted him and he sent me new, upgraded parts to rebuild it- FOR FREE!!! what other company do you know of that gives that type of customer service??? almost 2 years later it is still going strong.
