How to Convert Paintball Gun to Full Auto

Converting your paintball gun to fully automatic can greatly increase the performance of your gun. This upgrade, while slightly expensive, is very popular. A fully automatic paintball gun can have rates of fire that reach 20 balls per second, depending on the model of gun. This high rate of fire gives you a significant strategic advantage against your competition. Although this upgrade can be quite fun, it can also become quite expensive since you will be shooting many more paintballs.
