Both use a compressed gas to propell the paintball. You're lighting it first, big whoop...it's still a compressed gas.

so if all gasses are equel, why dont you go crack a co2 can open, take a few deep breths of it and then try telling me it all works the same.
no they are NOT using it in the same manner at all, the modern markers are using the pressure stored in the co2 canister alone to push the paintballs out the barrel, the c3 is creating its own pressure by combusting the fuel stored in the tank, it is not using the physical energy of what is in the tank it is using the chemical energy that is there, everything else is only using the physical energy in the tank.
i think i love this part the best though

because first of all i dont think anyone is going to argue that pump is better than semi-auto(performance standpoint) so if we are using this logic and semi-auto DOES happen to be better than pumps, then it should not be on your own list of innovations in paintball history as stated above
i guess im not getting through to you about the huge holes in your argument, your saying that a hybrid car that gets 40mpg is an innovation even though you put the same exact thing in the fuel tank but a marker that gets 50,000 shots per tank is NOT an innovetion even though you are putting something different in the tank (and i dont know about you but from what i learned in school propane and co2 do not have the same atomic makeup)
Crawdaddy-gosh id love to have one if it was semi. i think the problem with that though would be to make sure there was no fire left behind from the previous shot before filling the combustion chamber again with new gas. sure would be nice to spend $10 on propellent for the year and be able to save the extra for paint
