Honest poll. Pleae take. Project.

Well, most paintball players don't like chrome on their gun, but I used to when I was new to the sport (think it's ugly now). Did you like chrome on guns when you first started the sport?

I dont think it really matters what the gun looks like, long as it shoots good...

It looks right when its used right.
On some ocassions it can just make the gun amazing looking, on others it can ruin the whole look.
It really depends on when, where and what its used on that makes it nice, or not.

I agree. It just has to be in the right place.

Although I agree it can be used effectively, I actually prefer minimal gloss. I would go for matte over chrome every time.

As long as you don't overdo it, it's nice. Too much can make it flat-out ugly, but a little bit adds a nice touch.

I agree with pretty much everybody else, I like a little bit of chrome, in nice places, but not like a whole chrome marker, they look pug fugly. Mine is all black with chrome macro fittings and hardware, and that looks nice.

Same.
I thought chrome looked real cool my first time playing but only because it was on the best gun I'd ever seen, a 32* E-Rebel

If you want to get rid of it delete it, you dont just start a conversation and then say it can be closed...just because your done discussing it doesn't mean we are.

I really do NOT like chrome, but there are a few instances where I dont mind it
