I believe the best reason is that the insurance companies do not allow full auto.

I understand the point of view that the electro triggers on the semi guns can shoot just as fast, but it is a point of view that you can't just hold the trigger down, you have to make a concerted effort for each shot.

The other aspect is blind firing. It is much easier to pop the marker around a bunker and hold down a trigger as apposed to pulling it each time-but I HIGHLY doubt that has anything to do with it.

Just my .02 worth.

: In you're opinions, why is Full Auto fire not allowed on most fields and why should it be or shouldn't it be?
:
: When compared to lightning fast, electro-pneumatic triggers, it seems that high rates of fire are currently reserved for the rich and famous of paintball (unless FA is allowed - giving newer players an equalizer.)
:
: Perhaps the rates of fire should be regulated rather than full auto?
:
: Please take hard shots at my argument, here, if you will. I'm working up to an article thing (maybe.)

: Gracias
