Yeah, some morong here at school is trying to prove to me why a closed bolt gun is more accurate then blowbacks/forwards..please post the most basic argument as to why this isn't true becuase I'm not sure he could handle something too complex.

Thanks a bunch!

Simple answer: All markers (with a bolt anyway) fire from a closed bolt position. Both act upon the paintball in exactly the same manner.

Complex answer: Vortex shedding combined with shape and weight of a paintball is the reason behind the inaccuracy of paintballs. Nothing else can overcome this phenomenon.

The only thing that closed bolt really offers is less blowback.
Why dont you make him do the argueing?
For example, my friend to whom I just sold a mag phoned me up because it wasnt functioning and told me he wanted a refund and he wanted an autococker. I asked him why, and he said they were more accurate, shoot further, the normal BS. I asked him to explain why and how this was true, and he couldnt do it. Anywho, he gave the gun to me, and it was working fine.. what a moron lol :p
