ok i believe you know

Well... accuracy also depends on the "kick" of a gun! If a gun has a big kick then firing tight grouping will be more difficult than that of a gun with a smaller kick because of the movements in the Direction of the barrel!

Have you people been smoking chopped up o rings?

Most high end guns also run at lower pressures (down to about 100psi) - This softens the kick on the ball, increasing accuracy.

also....lower pressure = less ball breaks = less squeegee time = more time IN the game.

lets not forget consistancy in all of this, A high end marker will be more consistant thus enabling balls on to of balls!

And (this MAY have been mentioned ) they look a lot better

Not entirely true though - the ball still has to accellerate to the same speed in the same distance - in fact the low pressure is a disadvantage of the 'high end' markers as it makes them less efficiant.

Also not entirely true - the kick of a gun that you feel is the impulse resulting from firing. Since the impulse is effectively the change in momentum, the only change for any gun (assumung it ends up in the same state after the firing cycle) is the ball having left the barrel at 300fps. Hence the resultant force (the kick) is pretty much the same for any marker.
