Yes, I'm just saying that he has a VFC Mk18 with a P* dropped in after the fact, as opposed to a VFC body w/P* trades.

Yeah, it's a great idea. but a lot of airofters are gonna look and say "Ugh, external power source, no way." Myself included.
I do not always accidentally, but when I do, I accidentally the whole thing.

I see the external power source and don't even take notice because the gun itself is so incredably sexy

It looks identical to the AEGs that 90% of airsofters have, except for the tank.

Up side
Great fire rate from what I read and the fact it has less moving parts I like. Another fact is you can fill it at just about any paintball field. +2

Down side
I you plan to play at home you would need your own fill station or run out to a store before or during a game to play. It takes away from the realism from the gun, which is why I start to play in the first place. You also can't switch hands with this guns, meaning in a cqb environment or on a wall I could no shoulder the rifle on my left if I started right handed (Airlines would get in the way unless you found some secret way).

Over all
I personally thing its a step back wards at this point in airsoft. Unless they can compact it and make it fit like a gas gun then I don't think it gone go to far. Why would you trade a battery for a huge air tank? Plus a battery you can just about fill anywhere. As of right now the tech is kinda the wrong way for me, but I do have to say that this would be a good idea for convert paintballers to airsoft. But then again this is just my idea.

that is exactly my opinion Zoobie, you just worded it better than me.
