I remember this topic viewed slightly when talking about gun dynos and chronos. This was being talked about when comparing the E-mags recharge rate vs other guns.

I remember the tests resulting in Angels having very erratic velocities, while the E-mag maintined a healthy consistency. The test was done with high end markers, however I dont think blowbacks were used.

My question, how do blowbacks fare in consistency in high ROF's. I have seen videos where Emags, Angels and Timmy's laid a nice string of paint. I mean where the trajectories of each shot were right on each other.

I wanted to know if blowbacks can do the same. I was thinking of picking up an AMG for kicks, but am thinking against it if the recharge is horrible. I have never seen a video where an E-blowback is stringing paint.

I have heard blowbacks are not meant for high ROF's. Their design wont accomodate it. However many guns use a plain hammer/pin design for their operation.

Wierd very wierd.

Anyone have a vid, or have a comment on blowbacks?

LMK All.

I've got a pmi 2k3 e-force ext pro that I picked up as a loaner for the wife. Its able to throw a string of paint in a nice flat string one ball after the other. No noticable drop off.

the blowbacks are also not as accurate because of the kick in the blowback design.


but it is always a great loaner gun for any body.
