The second is BA's are easier to maintain, since you don't have to deal with the complexity of a gearbox.

I'll vouch for this guy, no one does 'projectile vomit' as far and as accurately as Barf does.
Oh ya, he has good points, a teammate and I swapped his VSR and CA M24 after a game, roughly 6ft apart, I noticed his VSR had a serious SPROING!!!! that ripped right through my cheekbone when I shot it, and he was kneeling beside me, he'd shoot and I was worried there was something seriously wrong with my M24 because it didn't sound like I was used to when I shot it. Turned out, I had become so used to the sound/feel of it when shooting, that when I stood within 10ft of it being shot, it was stupid quiet and I never heard it like that before. BTW, my KJW M700 is even MORE silent than my M24!
