      I think Electronic Markers are the Devil of the sport. I am all for Mechanical Markers. Lately I have been giving that a lot of thought. And playing with my ULE RTP and loving it more than ever. And you all know I have had all of em. I think I am going to shift that way on my own. If everyone is playing on the same level field in the way of equipment what does it realy matter? And right now with all these tricky bouncy memory boards we are NOT all playing on the same level. It would be easier to inspect and pass markers of Mechanical modes only. And they shoot fast enough for the game. I am all for it...

        The bottom line is that we have an even playing field... and nobody should be forced into buying particular equipment to keep it even, either because the alternatives are too expensive, or there is only one game in town.

        I would miss my EMag, but the ULT is a pretty good substitute. I like an electro because I can concentrate on the game, and not fumble with the trigger. The ULT is great and all, but I would love to see it go one step further if possible. A reliable hair-trigger if it can be done.

        I think the best thing about electros going away would be... we don't have this electronic shady stuff going on anymore.

            What the heck is next? SP wants a piece of the computer industry pie because I have a computer with an on/off switch that I use to look at electronic trigger paintball guns on the Internet?

              that would be a really tough decision for me. but as much as i like electros, ill have to go mech. i loved my mag and i always will, but i love electros too. i would go with mech only because it would save me money and i would have more money to spend on paint than a marker.

                same here(about the hopper part), i don't shoot that much paint and i like the feeling of a mechanical tigger.

                  I could never give up my X

                  EDIT: I might set the X down to rest for a while, and buy a phantom.

                    Nope i wouldn't. It's not so much a rate of fire thing as a money thing. I dropped 800 on my electro (emag).

                    also i'm not going buy another marker or sell my existing one because all of a sudden electro's are for sissies.

                        when i play with mech guns like a mag or cocker i short stroke big time so i'm going to get an eblade asap so i'm not having my balls go all over the place till i clean it out and miss targets of opportunity (i play front). and having an eblade will make snap shooting WAY easier. I like eletroc for speedball but if i play woods i like mech because i like to have more control.

                          Screw electros. I have still never actually shot paint out of one and I'm not really planning on it unless someone wants to give me an e-mag for free or in leave it to me in their will. I REALLY don't think electos make a huge differnece at all, except maybe at the highest levels of this game. Don't forget people, they still have to reload. When they come back from relaoding even a well placed shot from a PGP or a VSC Phantom, will do the same thing as 30bps sprayed from an electro.

                          AND who says Pumps have faded into history? There ARE those of us that still love pumps. I actually play better with a pump than I do with my Mag. This is true at least on real fields and not those new fangled inflatable BS crap shoot fields. I normally get the same number, if not more eliminations with a pump tham a Semi. It's amazing what taking a second to aim does to your accuracy, even with paintballs.

                            I have always shot a mechanical marker. no such thing as an electro back in 84 when i started playing. I might have bought an E mag if i came with a Z grip. dont get me wrong i like the looks and all of the E's and X's. I just wont part with my Z grip. Z grip,X valve,LevelX,soon to be ult. I just dont need an electro. my .02$

                              i guess for me it wouldnt be too tough, since all i shoot is mech cockers and mags anyway. But idk, because i do like electros, i just lack the money to accuire a nice one.

                                you said it yourself, if EVERYONE used mech guns, i would too. but, i wouldn't be using a mag anyway, i would definitely go for a cocker w/ hinge or a pmi piranha (don't even ask, i love those damn guns for some stupid reason)

                                Tom_Kaye: we cant seem to let go of that chick
