I go on a regular basis and much prefer it to paintball, the guns are fantastic if you are into 100% realism, taking someone out with a sniper head shot at 50 meters is cool.....especially if they squeal

Can you see the bullets fly as such.... It was handy to adjust your aim at paintball

If you are using white BB's at 1000 rounds per min on full auto its hard to miss seeing them however the more sneaky people use black BB's so as not to give your position away.

How 'kill' the opposition if the BBs leave no marks is it just down to honour or having a lot off marshalls?

It is down to honour to take a hit but if they squeal there isn't much doubt........
