Yeah. Flywheelers are nice and simple and really effective and easy to use and mod and such.

However, as a springer guy (because they don't use batteries and thus are dirt cheap to run), I have to say, springers aren't all hard. There's really no reason not to give it a try, so long as you do a little research first. I'd suggest starting with a single shot muzzle loader like the firestrike, put in a bigger spring, do Elliotw's venturi effect mod (which he'd love to tell you about), and bam, epic crazy-powerful simple blaster that all your friends will hate because it hits so hard. Or get heavier darts like waffle heads and it wont shoot so hard but accuracy should be terrific.

Beyond that, I'd say you should do a lock removal and AR removal on a Recon, cause it's super simple, the Recon won't wreck your wallet, and it's a decent CQC blaster if you can get over the slow rate of fire.

One last thing, ALWAYS do some research before modding newer blasters, because they generally don't hold up well to stuff like AR removal, and frequently don't need it.
