Indian Creek Designs

Indian Creek Designs

Indian Creek Designs (ICD) was a manufacturer of paintball markers based in Idaho and owned by Jerry Dobbins. As of 2008, ICD has announced at its website that it will no longer be manufacturing paintball markers, with Vaporworks [http://www.paintballtrader.com/] taking over service and maintenance duties.

History

Indian Creek Designs was first known for producing a pump marker in 1986, the Bushmaster SI. They continued producing markers, including the 'Cat line of markers. In this line of markers were the Puma, Alley Cat, Alley Cat II, Bob Cat, and Thunder Cat, all of which were very similar in design.

One of ICD's most famous line of markers was the Bushmaster 2000 line. This line of markers were made to compete with the high-end markers of the time (Angels, Shockers, Rainmakers, etc.), but are mostly considered a mid-range marker. Their design is based on the common electro-pneumatic poppet valve design. The Bushmaster line of markers came in several generations and styles, but was eventually discontinued in 2004 and replaced with the Promaster.

The BKO (rumored to stand for "Bushmaster Knock-Off") was the "little brother" of the Bushmaster 2000 series. Rather than being fully pneumatic, the ram housing consisted of a spring to return the marker's bolt, resulting in slower cycling speeds. The BKO was also discontinued in 2004.

As of December 2007, the Paintball division of ICD has closed its doors.

Latest products

ICD's most recent markers were the Promaster and Freestyle. The Promaster is very similar to the Bushmaster internally, with the exception of the utilization of pneumatic hoses. It is also shorter than previous Bushmaster models. The Freestyle was made to compete with current high-end markers. It was, at first, plagued with many bugs but eventually was noticed by top pro teams. The team most associated with the Freestyle was the Naughty Dogs, who were given private label versions.
