ABSTRACT:
For use in marking nighttime impacts from easily ruptured paintball type projectiles that are fired from compressed air guns; this invention provides a double chamber projectile capsule that contains two chemical agents which, when mixed together on impact, provide a luminescent spot to visibly mark impacts at night; for police and military training, as well as the popular adult war games, based on the present paint ball and air gun equipment.
The unique modifications are designed to fit into the present standardized paintball specifications, without adding unusual expense. A double barrier feature assures necessary shelf life and complete separation of the reactive agents; as well as increased ease of loading the two chemical agents during manufacture.
