The image is the packaging from a Smart Parts Impulse paintball marker, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by Smart Parts. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of product packaging constitutes fair use:

Purpose and character of the use is for educational purposes, not to sell Impulse markers
The photo is copyrighted
Only the front of the box is depicted; it is at a low resolution
Effect on the market for the image is low; it is unlikely that the use of this photo in the article will prevent people from purchasing Impulse markers. Indeed, the marker is no longer in production, so that danger is minimalized even further. If anything, providing photos of the marker will more likely than not promote further sales of the marker.

This image is of a branded product cover, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the company responsible of marketing the product in question or the manufacturer which produced either the cover or product itself.
