Sorry, this is my last question for now!

Right, I know basically about these 3, but just a few things I don't know.

Are combustion just single shot?
And why does everyone like combustion cannons when pneumatics are faster, more powerful, more accurate and basically seem better?

pneumatics gets boring after a while, and they get pricy
and combustions are LOUD, i just shoot them for the noise! plus it's more portable

theres no saying which is more accurate

Ok thanks again salad.
How are combustions more portable?
Why are they so much cheaper?
Are combustions single shot?

1) A can of AXE or even propane metering system is easier to tow around then a ~80 lbs compressor. I guess you could be a hard ass and pump it up with a hand pump. Instead of pumping a billion times, I would rather exercise my index finger on the AXE can.

2) A combustion are basically the same in construction, except that in a pneumatic you need to incorperate a valve into there. The valve and everything runs you for your money.

3) Yes, well most them at least. Rambo has a auto combustion, but I dont have the foggiest on how it works. I just got done asking him infact.
