NO.
That is considered automatic fire.
If any more than one ball is fired from the marker with one trigger pull, it is automatic and considered illegal by both State and Federal laws.

What's the point of "full auto" when most of the newer markers are capable of rates exceeding "full auto machine guns" anyway.
A cyclic rate of say 650 r/min only equates to roughly 11 bps.
22 bps (as some markers claim to do) equals 1320 r/min, more than an a MAC-11 machine pistol. So whats the point? Burst mode would probably be slower than some people could walk the trigger anyway. (Older Spyders with adjustable rof in the US were limited to 13bps).
Anyway just my rant. :clap:
Cheers :beer:

Full auto guns are not allowed in Australia and are illegal to import.

What then is the restrictions on the hyperframes for the mags John? Sure its got a tourney lock on it but it also has the burst mode :confused: Is it purely semantic in that it's not a marker itself only a frame?

Burst mode = illegal in Au by federal and state laws.

Quoted for truth
enough said - any testing of modes at the Masters to see if any of the new toys have some "illegal" modes available?

I agree with doggy, ya what's the point of having an auto burse marker when you can shoot up to 22bps?? I did my record on my DM3 with 23bps yesterday with only 1 finger.....
Auto burse are lousy and you need to feel your marker and feel the paints blowing out from the barrel.... thats the thrill mate!!! not auto.... :armed:

The very original HyperFrames had different firing modes and such are illegal, they stopped making those about 2-3 yeras ago. All the ones we sell have semi auto only capabilities. If you purchase a Hyperframe and it has different modes then it is a pretty old model. You can if you wish get those modes disabled.
