[quote:d816c]You know, that's one of the first things I thought for that. It would look too damn fake and probably outweigh the weapon if you used a regular C02 canister. The two things I want to know that I cant find is how much the gun weighs, and how many FPS does it shoot.[/quote:d816c]

It weighs 6.6 pounds stock, and has to be turned down drastically to get below 300 FPS for my field use. Lighter than the old M-16 i used to fire anyday.

The weight is why you would use a remote, and also for the look. A 20oz tank straped to the front of that thing would be heavy as hell and look dumb. As for it slapping me in the back, it wont. My type of field play is slow and low. A rare few games will i even notice my pods which other people say slap alot when they wear them. For my style of play the gun is perfect.

As for the feild not allowing it. I live in Washington, one of those states that likes guns. I also know the guy who runs one of the fields, and if where not there were up in the back woods somewhere. The other field owner would probably say "fuck that looks badass, can i shoot it?"
