All electro's are limited in bps in some form or other.

Like I said, stock timmy's are 14bps, Impy's are/were 14 ish (although the cricket board may be different). Angels are 20, etc etc. If you fire fast then you just "loose" shots faster than every 1/14th of a second.

So you need to get a marker than is "de-limited" to hit the top mark.

Mechanical markers are limited by other factors

Directly from the info that comes with new Impys :-

The new Impulse has 2 default fire rates that cannot be adjusted:
Vision Eye Off: 13.7 shots per second
Vision Eye On: 20 shots per second

Phil,
Oops - but I still am not sure. I thought the Angel is the number of cycles (not pulls) in one full second, and Equaliser board for the timmy is the same I believe.

Can't think of another gun with an on screen display of bps off the top of my head

Liz - that'll be the one :D

I honestly dont know about the Equalizer, im not sure about the angel, i always thought they used the method that i said otherwise you may pull the trigger as it resets the second. As i have already said, i may be wrong, and probably am about the angel/timmy.

I guess some count the BPS, and others count the BPS actually as it happens....if you know what i mean...

I think it my be the shocker as one of the markers that use the method i said, IE if you double tap with a 0.625sec time gap between each switch actuation....so it would display 16BPS

Thats my guess :D

It matters not, but im extremly bored :D :D

And i thought you'd like to know you are right about the angel, since it uses an auto_increment stlye shot counter :D :D
