nope.......at the moment a marker is to all intents and purposes a class five firearm......... but we get exemption....... they ignore us'cos we play nice . We start messing with anything, then there will be a test case and it won't end well. The "special case" of exclusion that we benifit from is a marker which fires one shot per trigger pull and fires nothing but paintballs......... anything else and we are in trouble..... as hotpoint says.... if it requires modification to fire full auto then it's OK......... However....... when the laws were written they didn't take into account fully electronic markers that could be "modified" by software download......... this will remain a grey area until someone is charged.... this test case will set the bar for the rest of us. Is software a modification?
