I DO have a modern marker... if you're referring to a regular style marker with a 200rd hopper and constant air, I've done that also, and I DO NOT LIKE IT. Sure, it's still fun, but I find it much more enjoyable to shoot only 10 shots at a time, it's not only more realistic, it takes more skill. If you give a newbie a fully automatic marker with a 400 rd hopper and tons of Co2, I'm sure he'll be able to shoot a lot of people. See something moving? Keep the trigger down. That is not my idea of a 'good time', 'skill', or technique. It's just 'whoever spends the most wins'. The person who has the most expensive gun and can afford to spend a shitload of money on paint will have a HUGE advantage, which is why I think it's ********. Pumpguns WERE a lot more fun, but hte simple fact is that you'll get slaughtered if you play with semi-autos and automatics. But it WAS more fun. Each shot took MORE time, and required MORE SKILL. IT was cheaper, more skillful, and more realistic.
Plus I think the hopper sticking up on top looks ****ing stupid.
