I have one just like that (several actualy) but they shoot .223's and .308's..... I dont get it...Is it just like paintball, with more realism in the equipment venue? Are they gas powered or spring? Will everyone get pissed at folks like chicodude when the parental groups start trying to mandate the toys away?

I honestly don't know anymore.
What you need to do is get a hold of an AR-15 with a 9mm conversion kit and/or some 9mm handguns. Then buy some simuntion rounds. A lot of them. That's some good fun right there. We did that at my Security Forces school. We tooled on the instructors, but somehow when we got hit we were "dead", but you could shoot them multiple times and they stayed "alive." It also didn't help that the instructor who was a ref shot us in the back a lot. And he wouldn't let us fall back and flank when we were pinned down. When we tryed he shot us.

But anyways, if you want realism without getting actually shot. Simunition is the way to go.

Real looking toy guns that shoot hard lil' plastic pellets. they can either be powered by a spring, compressed gas, or an electric motor.
what's the point?
