What makes cocker type guns so much better than blowback semis? I know there quieter and can go to lower pressures but the lower pressure doesn't mean higher efficiency. It just reduces the barely noticable recoil and drops the sound a bit more. Also there a lot harder to maintain than a blowback and can be very tempermental. The accuracy seems to depend on the paint and the barrel more than the gun. Is there something i'm missing that makes it worth blowing mega bucks on a gun before you even look at upgrades when you could have a fully tricked out blowback for less?
