This is somthing I'd like to bring up... Do you like Mechanical Guns or Electro Guns... I for one Like Mechanical, Becuase I like the user doing the work of shooting it instead of a Computer Chip do it for me.

It doesn't bother me..The one thing I hate though is cheap, electro, sear trippin, spyders, and even worse, imitation spyders.

Mech, because something mechanical moving 20 times a second is infinitely more fun than something electronic going 20 times a second. More things to tinker with, therefore more things to build and improve upon yourself, without buying a board or something. Plus mechanical stuff tends to be more durable and respected more, since it takes actual skill to design one. I think it was Enos (not sure) that figured out once how much it would cost to build an electro with some basic parts from Radio Shack. It was ridiculously cheap.

That, and I like to watch stuff move really fast over and over. Like, a Cocker cycling is more fun than a Timmy.

EDIT: Plus, "Elektronic-Supersonik".. totally irrelevant. I'll stop here before I go off on a tangent and get told to shut up or leave by a mod.
