What do you need to cut through a forest of opposition…the AXE! The new Empire AXE is a Mini on steroids; bigger, badder and willing to punish opponents. The new shape and extended grip frame give you a comfortable firing position for all day play. The Empire Relay On/Off Regulator ASA makes air bottle removal quick and easy, using the lever. The unique push-button, tool-less bolt removal system makes maintaining the AXE simple, at the end of the day. All that was great in the Mini has been carried forward into a new design. The proven Mini break-beam eye system and electronics, power this marker to ultra fast firing that is gentle on paint. Wield the AXE, the newest paintball gun from Empire and cut down everyone in your way.
Sewell, NJ, February 7th, 2011, Empire Paintball. Empire Paintball announced today that Infamous will be shooting the Empire AXE marker in 2011. In addition to shooting the AXE, the team will be head to toe Empire.
"This has been a long time coming – a performance tournament marker from Empire is sick," said Nicky Cuba of LA Infamous. "The Empire team has been pumping out sweet gear, loaders, and masks for years, it’s only natural that they would deliver a kick-a$! marker."
"Let me Axe you a question - you want to get chopped down? You gonna say, no, no, not me – then stop your foolin' and break down the door with the new AXE," said LA Infamous’, Todd Martinez.
Marcello Margott of Infamous said, "I use the AXE for one reason - to chop down my competition. Seriously, the ball flight, accuracy, and gentleness on paint has been epic."
Last week, Empire Paintball announced that Sacramento XSV would also be shooting the AXE Marker for the season.

Staff Review
On first glance, the Axe looks like a gun that would be comfortable to hold and well balanced. It was just that! The added length of the gun including the extra space in the trigger guard makes it very easy to hold. The "Bolt Out Back" design makes it very simple to clean and tech and the "On-Off" on the ASA is a great addition as well. Gassed up and ready to go the gun it very smooth and easy to control.
