you dont HAVE to have eyes in it if you want. Dont get a new one. you can find good USED ones for Really cheap $250 or less.

it depends on how you define "necessary". Is it necessary to have a functioning eye to shoot the marker? No. I proved that last year when i had just ebladed my prostock. I didn't have time to drill and tap for the eye before weekend practice, but i decided to try to use the gun anyway, leaving the eye unplugged. It worked fine if i was shooting single shots or short bursts, but anytime i approached the 12bps cap, i might as well have been using a garden hose with a sprayer attachment. So yes, if you want the marker to perform to the best of its ability, the eye is necessary.

at that point in time i was using a revy, but i also tested it with a halo that day. the halo resulted in less chops, but it was still an unacceptable problem.
