If you are looking at the ones that G&G use, the only thing I've seen bad about them is apparently the micro switch in them can break down if you are heavy handed on the trigger (going off something that @TARGETSZONE.CO.UK posted a while back). Something about it compressing and not returning? Something like that.
Weirdos in Lycra and paintball masks run around overkilling people looking like ghetto power rangers.
Quality and variety has increased, and even lower priced guns are coming with the features people paid good money for.
Lots if sites have shut down, lots have opened.
The forum is still the best place for answers

There are a few folk at my local site who use these, and they do seem ace. Like @LightningCh, I've heard of the ETU's going on them a few times.
My little Wasp (G&G GR16) doesn't have the ETU and I love it. I have been toying with putting a Gate Titan in it (mostly for lip protection and enable 3rd burst, It eats ammo on full auto...) but I am loathed to open it up and mess around when it is still performing fantastically.

can you get plug and play type ones as that would suit me!?, i have 2 to 10 rnd burst with my Xcortech....but tbh i use single shot most of the time as thats what the site rules are except Urban. Ive it set to 3 shot though on the off chance my finger slips or knocks the selector
oi don't talk smack. Maybe if the weirdos in too big plate carriers took the first hit....... I'll not start this

People who can't keep up moaning about those who remember it is a game and play it as such.

And how is wearing lycra a material that is designed for sports any worse than wearing camo and playing toy soldier?No need to get your Lycra in a bunch
Ones is someone who is dressing for a game and the other is someone who is dressing to fufill some slightly delusional soldier boy fantasies.
Go speedsofters I say.
I see you’ve taken this to heart...
i honestly couldnt care less what they wear to be honest, although running around with trainers on is an accident waiting to happen.
What I don’t like is the need to put 30 rounds into someone at such a rate that the marshal comes over and tells them it’s not a full auto site (he wasn’t, he was just spamming). The friendly fire is through the roof too. At my local cqb place I’ve only been pissed off twice in the 20+ times I’ve been since it opened. Once with the speed softer children and the other with Matttheblatentcheater.

If you couldn't care less why bring it up in the first place.
I just feel sorry them as they are getting a bad rep that to be honest they don't deserve. Yeah there is the odd bad one but all the worst behaviour I have ever seen has come from the opposite side of the coin, over zealous wannabe soldier types.
They have taken over from rentals as the sh*t talking victim of choice for the element of the community that is the real problem.
Because if someone annoys me, everything about them is fair game lol.
I actually agree with you on the toy soldiers. They’re usually the ones who cannot accept they are getting beaten because they’re operator and shout cheat every 5 mins..
I’m just calling it as I see it. 100% of the speedsofters I’ve played against I want to waterboard :lol: your experience may vary.

Experience really does vary.
I've played with speedsofters who were fair play and werent too heavy on their rof. I've seen toy soldiers who are the opposite.
As already said, there will be bad and good in each bunch, but obviously, 1 bad guy outweighs 10 good guys in most cases. I also feel that "i didn't feel it" is seen as the better of the 2 evils... Which doesn't add up in my head... Marshals are typically more worried about the ROF than the cheating.
I've "over killed" a guy and got shouted at by a marshal, all i did was 5 shots in a quick trigger spam, that all landed on target, yet the guy i hit came over and shook my hand for the accuracy. Also then got complimented by his mate about my accuracy.
But one guy took 10 shots and just shrugged his way through it, and no one said anything? Just kept firing and moaned about it quietly to teammates?
From my short experience with airsoft I can't help but feel people are more likely to complain to a marshal about your ROF and trigger spam rather than those that don't take hits properly. So imo that's why speedsofters are getting more hate.
