After reading the stickies, I found out that the difference between B2K's and BKO's was the 2 way valve and the 4 way valve. Does having a 2 way valve make the gun have more kick since it can't cycle as fast as a 4 way valve?

How much kick can I expect a BKO/B2K to have in comparison to a very well tuned autococker?

The kick on both a BKO and a b2k is close to nothing.

Since the B2ks ram is returned by air...it feels different. We discussed this in a thread before...I'll see if I can find it.

Meh, don't strain yourself. Is there any way you can try to explain it by yourself?

Well the shot forward feels exactly the same, but the return feels more smooth and almost effortless. I dont really know what that means and if that can help you.

If you could shoot both, you would see what I mean.

NOTE: This doesnt however mean that the BKO spring return isnt smooth!
