ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying
consolidated financial statements for the three month periods ended August 31,
1999 and 1998 and the Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended May 31, 1999.

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this report and elsewhere (such as in other filings by
the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), press
releases, presentations by the Company of its management and oral statements)
may constitute 'forward-looking statements " within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as "expects,"
"anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates," and
"should," and variations of these words and similar expressions, are intended
to identify these forward-looking statements. The Company's actual results
could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking
statements. Factors that might cause or contribute to such differences
include, among others, competitive pressures, the growth rate of the paintball
industry and electronic commerce, constantly changing technology and market
acceptance of the Company's products and services. The Company undertakes no
obligation to publicly release the result of any revisions to these
forward-looking statements, which may be made to reflect events or
circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of
unanticipated events.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the three months ended August 31, 1999 with the three months
ended August 31. 1998

Revenue increased by $168,931, or 735.5% substantially as the result of
increased paintball marker and accessories sales.  This growth is attributed
to the Company's utilization of the 1800 PAINTBALL telephone number acquired
in March, 1999 and the additional emphasis on the distribution of other
manufacturers' paintball accessory products.  The Company's gross profit
increased $24,036, or 184.7%, as the result of substantially increased
revenues.  The emphasis on growth and the addition of the distribution of
accessory products, which normally carry lower gross profit margins, as an
adjunct to the Company's Viper M1 paintball marker has caused the gross
profit margin to decline from 56.7% to 28.0% and the remaining decline to
arrive at the current period's gross margin of 19.3%, is caused by costs
associated with electronic hosting of the Company's web sites totalling
$16,302 in the current quarter and $0 in the prior year quarter.

The Company's e-commerce web sites began operating in late April 1999 and as a
means to attract users, membership has been provided free until November 1999.
Therefore, no membership revenues have been generated.  As an additional means
of attracting visitors to the site, the Company placed consumer goods on the
auction site of which $1,543 were sold.  This revenue is included in
the current period's net sales of $191,898.

Sales and marketing expenses have increased by $112,648, or 268.3%, primarily
as the result of advertising and promotions for the Company's e-commerce web
site.  Likewise, Product development in the current period is the result of

                                    8

preparing and upgrading the Company's web site.  General and administrative
expenses have risen $112,648, or 268.0% as the result of additional salaries,
consulting, and professional fees associated with the Company's overall
growth.  Depreciation and Amortization expense increased $7,005, or 81.4%,
primarily as the result of the addition of Computers and related electronic
hardware.  Interest expense is down slightly as the result of less interest
bearing debt outstanding.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's working capital has decreased from $60,034 to a deficit of
$98,471, primarily as the result of a substantial increase in accounts payable
reflecting a rise in expenses as previously noted.  The Company's net loss,
which increased from $69,720 to $400,494, contributed the substantial portion
of the $243,377 increase in Net cash used by operating activities.

Net cash used by investing activities increased $66,024 due to the addition of
computer hardware and related electronic equipment.

Net cash provided by financing activities consists of loans from stockholders,
which bear no interest.

The Company continues to be reliant upon the combination of revenues, loans
from stockholders and capital contributions to fund operations.  The Company
has not generated any profits from its existing operations and continues to
incur substantial costs related primarily to further development and
maintenance of its e-commerce web site. The Company's continued existence is
dependent upon its ability to secure financing or its ability to generate
sufficient cash flows through operations to meet its operating costs and repay
current obligations as they come due.  In this regard, in April of 1999, the
Company entered into a financing agreement with a third party whereby the
Company may sell to the third party and that third party must buy a number of
the Company's shares of common stock, subject to restrictions (the "Put
Option"). The more salient of the restrictions under the Put Option includes
that the Company must first register the shares which may be subject to the
put and the number of the shares which may be put to the third party in any 30
day period is dependent upon the Company's share price as determined on the
OTC Bulletin Board and volume of trading activity. The Company can make no
assurances that it will be successful in registering the subject shares or
that the market in the Company's stock will remain adequate to allow the
Company to raise necessary funds through the use of the Put Option.  Until the
Company obtains sufficient funds necessary to capitalize the growth of its
existing operations, expenditures required to increase revenues including
advertising and promotion of both its e-commerce web site and paintball marker
products, will be substantially limited.  Should the Company be unable to
obtain continued funding from existing shareholders or under the terms of the
Put Option agreement its operations may be adversely affected.
