Should more sites weigh the bbs during chrono?
Lyndication replied to JVacation's topic in General Discussion
I genuinely don't get what you're talking about with the eyepro there boss. A half joule higher shot can tear the straps? Or something about skin foam contact? Isn't your skin already contacting the foam? -

compromise eye protection involves more then breaking , involves straps , skin foam contact , stuff like that which i think people forget about better then no chrono at all also gives better cover with insurance if anything happens, -

If it is, you need better eye protection tbh. Like you should be able to take some ijit with a boltie hitting you at point blank, because it happens. -

Fixed that for you. You don’t know about the ones who are not caught. You may not have realised it, but that post was an admission that what you regard as “better chrono practices” are not as effective as you seem to think. -

that half joule might be enough to compromise eye protection! -

Single shot pump action shotgun made from metal and wood. Never been fielded, only shot in the garden and I've owned it from new. It's got a tdc hop which is currently set for 0.43g bbs and it's chronoing at 234fps on 0.43s which puts it at 1.09 joules. If you use lighter bbs it'll go over the joule limit. You need a valid defence to buy this please. I'm after £85 including postage.£85

I mean yeah, there's always one arsehole I guess. Maybe I'm lucky that sites I play at have 90% decent players who take the rules seriously. Cos fundamentally whether someone calls a hit in this game is based on trust. I've watched plenty of players cheat my hits, even after I've made them flinch and shout about it hurting. There's tonnes of ways to cheat in this hobby but it feels like taking roids for Sunday league football at a certain point lmao. If someone is gaming an extra half joule by using heavier BBs and risking being outed as a cheater for it, it's just pathetic innit. -

like i said rock ape , someone who knows chrono ,joules,fps and bb weight , pretty integral part of the hobby so they should know , the example you gave is a good example of what not to do and should not happen that would also time to bring out the scales I've been to sites that handle between 80/100 players regularly and have no trouble with chrono , and people cheating the chrono are caught pretty quick and are removed before lunch , i dunno what the insistence is with not have better chrono practices -

At a certain point you just have to trust other players tbh, otherwise why bother? It's all an honour system anyway. -
256x192 is something I would avoid. Bare minimum should be 384x288, nowadays they can be obtained for not THAT much coin. Drop the wifi, range finder and bullet drop bollocks, change the base magnification to 2x instead of 3.56x, have the thing use an ACOG mount instead of the weird ass rail most thermals come with, include a glass protector of some sort. Even if the overall price rises to 1k, it's still going to be competitive.

G&G Cm16 with a few upgrades that does semi on full auto. This isn't intentional. It used to do full auto and did for a moment when I tested it but it looks like the selector plate needs replacing or looking at. This is kind of a bits box build. The intention was to make a lightweight m4 that was good power and accurate. It's quite long and is all polymer so weight 2.2kg. I really like it but I like other guns more so this one is having to go. Its got a king arms club foot stick. There's no end cap for the stock so the battery is just in there loose. I squeeze a small bit of sponge in there to stop the battery from falling out. It's a cm16 v1 polymer lower with a combat machine v2 upper with a g&g m-lok handguard. G&G gearbox. It has a generic silencer and generic red dot. It has a 500mm (approx) madbul tightbore barrel, maple leaf macaron hop rubber and g&g hop unit. It comes with a d boys high cap that I've checked feeds fine. It shoots well at approx 325fps on 0.2g bbs. You need a valid defence to buy this please. I'm after £100 plus £10 postage for rifle mag and red dot.£100

It would be even handier if the ape says "I hope you're not using more than 0.3g, mate, or you'll have to put it back in the bag", so that the player can just nod and confirm "Yeah, mate, yeah, I'm using whatever you just said" without even having to make up a weight themselves. The reality is that measing velocity, but not mass, is like proving a car is efficient by providing fuel receipts, then saying "Trust me bro" about the taped-over odometer. -

That “rock ape” is possibly having to chrono 100+ players, many of whom have more than one gun to chrono. Having done that job at two different sites, you have to take some of what you are told on trust and assume that players have not dialed the hop up as far as it will go, which does leave the process open to abuse. However, the key point is that the vast majority of sites only look at the velocity limit for the declared weight. Random in game sampling including weighing of BBs is possibly the best approach and certainly provides a deterrent, especially when the penalty is to be sent home. One of the things that I really like about AP is that they stick to what they say in the briefing. Unlike so many sites, they do not hesitate to send people home if they ignore warnings about hit taking, MED abuse and other poor behaviour. -
