Chris Ogaz of TnC Products / Ogaz Enterprises' Paintball History w/ Spanky and FBM Autococker Bodies

Chris Ogaz, of TnC Products and Ogaz Enterprises, out of Ontario California, talks about his paintball history machining Autococker paintball gun bodies for Spanky Paintball, FBM Paintball, Jackal Machine, Mountain View Paintball and his own company, TnC Products from 1998-2004.
In this video Chris details various style of Autococker Paintball Marker bodies that he machined from WGP stock bodies and later from solid billet aluminum and details differences in the body styles and talks numbers about production.
Chris talks about bodies including Spanky Paintball's Ying Yang, Fishbone, Warped Monkey and Fireball Mountain Paintball's Original, Gothic, and Teardrop bodies.
Chris explains how he started machining on Worr Game Product bodies for Spanky and then was asked to make a billet aluminum blank body that took angel threaded vertical feednecks.
Chris then goes on to explain how his company, TnC Products (Tino and Chris) produced their own line of Autococker Paintball gun bodies including the 3D Bubble Body, the Lightning, the Death Trap and the B-12 body.
Chris talks about the machining time involved on some of the bodies (over an hour and a half for some!) and all the small items they would make to go along with the bodies such as front blocks, back blocks, volumizers, valves and trigger frames.
Chris remembers a little about selling bodies to Jeremy Garrett at Jackal Machine and the Phase 2 Body as well as engraving custom bodies for Mountain View Paintball.

Throughout the video a banner is hanging behind Chris from his Nephew, Jacob's Soccer team, the Cool Cats, that Ogaz Enterprises, Inc. sponsored.
Jacob passed away of Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia at the age of 7 in 2010.
Chris writes:
"My Nephew was diagnosed with Cancer at the age of 3. It came as a heartbreaking shock to find out that this little boy that hasn’t had a chance to live yet has Cancer. The Doctors mentioned that out of the Cancers it is the better one to have as it has the highest chance of remission. So they came up with a plan of attack. Once he started his Chemo sessions he could not be a regular boy anymore. Can’t go out and play, had to be very careful to not be around anyone that was sick as it could be fatal for him if he got sick as his immune system was nonexistent from the Chemo. Once the treatment starter the first test came back good as the treatment was working. He went into remission pretty quick. That was a relief for all of us. He spent many days and nights in the hospital. Just for a minor cold he was hospitalized with no immune system. After a few months we got word that the Cancer is back… Nothing like being dragged down again.
After another plan of treatment we started all over again. After a little while he actually was back in remission. There was a point his immune system was coming back up and the Doctors said it was ok for him to be around some kids. (Which is what kids should do). This is when we got him into Soccer for the first time. He had so much fun playing with the other kids it helped take away the reminder of Cancer."
