Okay... having owned both.

The Vice wins hands down in the air consumption catagory.. I loved that gun for that 12 pods and a hopper on a full 68 45 fill............... But. Mine and my team mates were a little wonky to set up and it took us a good week of tweaking and running paint to get them to work 100% flawlessly and we knew what we were doing. The LPRs are buggy and tend to do what ever they want untill you break them in.. we cheated and took out the pillows in our bolts and broke the regs in the best way possible.. put the gun in full auto and just ran air through it till we got consistant reads all around.

The Marqs with the additon of the new HE engine kit and after market board can and will get the same 12 pods and a hopper on a 68 45. While they are heavier guns they do feel more ergonomic in the hand compaired to the vice which leans a bit on the top heavy and tall side. With out the bolt kit and board Im pulling 7 pods and a hopper on a 68 45

Personally... I still love my marq, and the vice is a great gun. But only one gun of the bunch didnt need a bunch of set up work to be perfect and that was my marq... The vice was just a pain in the butt for me Mr. MArker perfectionist.
