Performance and Comfort.

If holding/firing your marker doesn't feel comfortable and easy, then you aren't getting all the benefit from your performance ups IMHO.

P.

My priority is performance, a marker doesn't have to be one or the other. There are some A-5s that are works of art.

Mine, I liken unto Frankenstein's monster!

I also think milsim and performance can go together. There are plenty of inline regs that can be used in all sorts of situations, the internals can be performance upgraded without sacraficing the milsim look, and most good barrels can be milsimed with shrouds and fake suppressors with out affecting their performance and if you are an avid real weapon shooter there is no reason you can't acheive most of the feel of weapons that you are familair with, I believe they can go hand in hand for the most part. I like scenario and woodsball so why not configure my marker as I choose and everyone else can configure theirs how they choose. No different than real weapon's were a guy spends thousands adding every competition upgrade to a rifle he intends to hunt deer with, even though the stock rifle would have done the job quite well, Hence modding PB markers was a given. IMHO have fun no matter your choice and enjoy. Just like if everyone only liked the same marker there wouldn't be much choices but they all serve the same purpose in the end, they get people playing and even a cheap spyder or splatmaster can put you off the feild LOL

I combine all three in near perfect balance. Comfort and performance are top on my list, but cosmetics are a close second. Plus, I like all the bonus weight it adds. My 13 pounder is better for me than any 3 pound tourney marker. My marker is THE PERFECT SETUP FOR ME. I just LOVE the looks, the feel, and the performance. I basically took all three routes at once, lol. By the way, I actually sleep with mine... She's my teddy bear! (I SWEAR, nothing distasteful goes on there...) Yes Mein A-5 is just THAT comfortable, hahaha... See pix, specs, and vidz in mah sig. Peace.

SURRENDER NOW. YOU HAVE THIRTY SECONDS TO COMPLY.

Alright, my opinion of this changed recently. I was MilSim. Wanted a nice milsim gun. Then we equipped my tank at D-Day with a DM4 and DM5. I was forever changed. Space guns, here I come.

I went the Performance path for the most part. Not going to vote though because I don't think MilSim is Tacky at all....I just don't like it for myself. I can appreciate the creativity that goes into visualizing your marker a certain way and then making that happen.
