Yeah, whatever the muzzle energy of your bb's are has to go somewhere, and if it aint pushing a bb out the barrel it's hitting the front of the casing. Might be fine if the casing is strong enough, but for the sake of setting up a target and having some fun might as well send some plastic...

chrono is always a useful thing to have. typically i've found the opposite problem to be more common, buy a new gat with a spring downgrade which consists on them replacing the stock spring with whatever was in the clicky pen they had handy.

wait, what!? that is not how aeg's work my dude, heavier bb's are not going to yeild a significant material impact on the energy levels. at least not in a healthy gun. the velocity will drop yes, but not the energy, and the energy makes the owchie. hop off is bullshit, plenty of aeg's will do...

Never understood the postage cost war. You're taking a massive hit when you sell second hand, does it really matter? Just list it for the price you can actually sell it for, then post it with the proper tracking and accept whats left. If you're in a financial position where one days green...

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but there is literally no alternative other than to move site in hope of finding a better quality target. I've fallen down all the rabbit holes, thinking moar dakka would cure the cheating issue, if they wont call one then just send more until they get the...

I would agree, a short and handy carbine like an mp5, arp9, aksu/pp19 or similar would be the go-to. outfit it with a snappy motor and precocking mosfet and not worry about the noise. I was mainly an outdoor player, but i have played indoor cqb and despite having a well dialled, accurate snappy...

Depends on how quiet you want to go. The gold standard is a well dialled solenoid hpa engine with a sufficiently large foam filled can. Ofc avoiding a tank and line is going to come with compromises like reduced round counts before replenishing. A non blowback gas gun, with the generic example...

In that case go play some airsoft and get registered, 3 games over 2 months isnt that arduous. Plus good practice when the target gets to shoot back. Worst case scenario is you have a new hobby that'll suck up all your disposable income.

I mean i dont have a problem if folk want to be a bit competitive to motivate them to engage more. But in my experience that drive to win can often result in either bitching about "this team is shit" demoralising those around them, or pushes them to cheat in the name of "i'm just getting the...

hell i'd extend that to caring too much about wether or not the team wins or loses. end of the day i'll take a team loss that we had to make the other team work hard for over a victory that was just an easy cruise.

I have no idea how i feel about this. Somehow reviled but also thinking it doesnt look that bad?

fortunately, not having a fb account means i cannot see whatever heresy is being presented here. please nobody ruin my or anyone else's day by posting screenshots.

Think the thing is in the modern era pre-ordering gets over used a lot, and so many times if a project fails you see people either not getting refunds or getting a crap product. So its more of a general philosophical objection to the practice than the specifics of this case. If dave gives...

I do agree that dca supporting a not-ar-derivative airsoft pew is laudible. If he wants to do that with his money, thats good. And if lambda screwed him over that's bad. My only issue is with the concept of taking regular peoples money via pre-orders.

I hope that isnt an argument in favour of lying to pre-order customers who's money you have to protect your potential profits. Because whilst thats a very common business tactic of our era, its not one that should be justified encouraged.
