Wow... here's my perfect balance:

A pump of each style (bore drop nelson (Bushmaster), brass Sheridan (PGP), Sterling, Sniper (Illusion)), and one each of closed and open bolt semiauto (Cocker, Sentinel).

I can't get used to electros... no feel to the trigger.

I agree, this whole oldschool vs speedballers is getting old. Let's just embrace the sport and shoot each other !

edit: yay ! I'm 47% more cooler than most women !

Remember that the import ranks aren't all Honda Civics they also include the NSX, Supra, GT-R, WRX STI, Lancer Evo, etc.
Even Civics can be proper-fast if modified by someone knowledgeable, not just a ricer kid: Shortly after finishing the installation of the 2

All this to say I agree with the "Paintball is fun, Paintball guns are cool" crowd (and I'm a Honda fan). ;-)

for a while i thought you were talking about the whole american built pb guns vs imported pb guns. (old tippmanns, all sheridans up to the XGS series, CCI, Lapco, Wintec, too many to list VS spyders n clones, WDPs, and so on ad nauseum)

you weren't the only one. Especially these days when most new markers are made in asia regardless of what the company tells you. I have seen people peel the "made in taiwan" stickers off of stuff that was allegedly made in the USA.

If a certain percentage of the parts are made in the US, or assembled from parts made in the US, it can said to have been made in the US.

I think that's how it goes, anyways.

Check out the new spark plugs for GM LS-series engines - they're made by NGK, but say they are assembled with American parts right on the plug's body. They're just rebadged Japanese plugs.
