NOTE 2 - BUSINESS SEGMENTS

The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that offer
different products and services.  The Company currently has two reportable
segments: paintball products and Internet commerce.  The paintball segment
produces a mid-priced paintball marker and distributes related accessories.

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 six month periods ended November 30,
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 SIX MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 1999 WITH THE SIX MONTHS ENDED
NOVEMBER 30, 1998

Revenue for the six month period ended November 30, 1999 was $451,571 compared
to $53,986 of revenue recorded during the same period of the prior year.  This
increase, equivalent to 836%, was created by expansion of our paintball
business.  During the prior period, production of the Viper M1 paintball
marker was stifled by the inability of our primary subcontractor to assemble
the markers in sufficient quantities to satisfy demand.  With production
transferred to in-house facilities, this problem has been solved, allowing us
to meet a demand that is accelerating as a result of our advertising efforts.
The success of our advertising program stems from use of the 1-800-paintball
toll-free telephone number acquired earlier in 1999.  Our advertising copy
promotes use of the number in addition to use of our web site at
www.800paintball.com.

During this start-up period of the 800-paintball program, we have relied on
other paintball distributors for procurement of paintball products other than
the Viper.  With the growth in volume, we are now able to negotiate directly
with manufacturers which will allow us to reduce our cost of sales and
increase gross profit margins.  Although our gross profit increased from
$24,825 in the prior period to $40,634 in the current period, this represented
a decline in gross profit margin from 46.0% of sales in the prior period to
9.0% in the current period.

A portion of the decline in gross profit resulted from recording costs related
to the electronic hosting of our web sites within current period cost of
sales.  Our e-commerce web sites began operating in late April 1999 with use
of the sites free to members for the initial six-month period.  Significant
revenues from these sites will develop only after the funds needed for

                                     8

promotion of our new e-commerce program, the eCom eCom SuperHUB, are received
through our financing activities described below.  The SuperHUB concept, which
we expect to be operational by the end of January 2000, allows us to integrate
our auction, classified ad and barter web sites with storefront software that
will provide small business clients with a comprehensive package of tools to
establish their own web presence.

Sales and marketing expenses have increased by $239,775, or 563.0%, primarily
as a result of the implementation of test marketing programs for our e-
commerce program.  Product development expense of $264,949 incurred in the
current period ($0 in the prior period) results from our efforts to develop
and refine our e-commerce properties.  General and administrative expenses
have risen $195,509, or 247.2%,  as the result of additional salaries,
consulting, and professional fees associated with our Company's overall
growth.  Depreciation and amortization expense increased $14,568, or 82.3%,
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.

Our developmental activities and the related expenditures resulted in a net
loss of $820,677 in the current year-to-date period compared to a loss of
$122,482 in the same period of the prior year.

COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 1999 WITH THE THREE MONTHS
ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 1998

Revenue grew to $259,673 during the three-month period ended November 30, 1999
compared to $31,019 of revenue recorded during the same period of the prior
year.  This represented a 737.1% increase over the prior year quarter.
Increases in cost of sales and operating expenses, consistent with the
description in the year-to-date comparison above, created a net loss of
$420,183 in the current quarter compared to $52,762 in the prior year period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At November 30, 1999, current assets totaled $361,679 compared to $296,654 at
the end of the prior fiscal year.  Increases of $106,586 in inventories and
$65,561 in prepaid advertising offset decreases in cash and accounts
receivable.  A $97,675 reduction in cash resulted from the Company's net loss
year-to-date.  Current liabilities grew from $236,620 at the prior year end to
$674,678 at the end of the current period.  This growth primarily resulted
from an increase of $430,881 in accounts payable and accrued expenses, an
increase created by the growth in inventories and operating expenses.

Net cash used by investing activities increased $64,985 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, and capital contributions recorded from the private
sale of restricted stock.

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 development and maintenance of
its e-commerce web sites.  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

                                     9

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
products, will be substantially limited.  Should the Company be unable to
obtain continued funding from existing shareholders or under the terms of Put
Option agreement its operations may be adversely affected.
