Chock

It's just a shade over 22 rounds per second

If Taken 2 was anything to go by, then probably yes. Will probably buy it on DVD when it is inevitably three quid in Sainsburys, but only for completeness, since it has garnered very poor reviews on IMDB

Paintball is okay, but you get covered in crap, and it doesn't always wash out properly: Had a nice M65 O/D combat jacket ruined by paintball paint which wouldn't wash out properly.

I'd choose the GHK.

...an issue, as it does with the real thing

Yes - if you buy a good brand - which is what my first reply asked the OP. We determined that he was probably referring to the K-Warrior Maruzen/TM clones, which have metal slides and many tolerances which are way slacker than they should be because the 1911's shape does not allow accurate moulding without using expensive sliding mould technology, because the real thing's parts are milled when produced in metal. The simpler shape and plastic materials of the Glock makes that less of...

A criteria of the Glock 17, was that all parts be fully interchangeable, thus it was designed to be made so that consistent tolerances are easy to maintain during manufacture. Not true of the M1911, which is largely machined from billets of metal, requiring hand-grinding to finish the fit - that is a result of its design. Injection moulding parts of the Glock 17 negates the need for fine tuning. That simplicity of manufacture translates to making accurate replicas easily too.

So it's only levity when you do it, but it's a personal implication when I do it eh?

If airsoft Glocks & 1911s are to look and act like their real counterparts, the design will have a bearing on matters. Quite apart from the straight lines of a Glock making it easier to manufacture to fine tolerances, its slide is light, requiring very little gas from a 9mm round to cycle. Conversely, the 1911's slide is a big lump of metal which needs the copious spare gas from a .45 ACP to drive it backwards. Pretty obvious which will work better as a GBB.

I've not missed any point, I merely answered someone's question. Typing TL:DR when I merely attempted to be helpful, is not only rude and uncalled for, but since the reply - long or otherwise - was not directed at you, is also an unnecessary disphemism.

Be aware however, that a gun designed in 1906 isn't going to outmatch one designed in 1982. The 1911 design dates from an era when guns were literally hand-built; the Glock is from an era where guns are built on modern production lines in large numbers with a good deal of CNC automation. Want a classic? Get a 1911. Want a gun that works reliably? Get a Glock

In any medium where typing and reading are the primary means of communication, anyone who types TL:DR (too long, didn't read) might as well have typed 'I'm a thick fecker who can't read very well' lol

If you are correct about which one he means, i.e. the Gas Blowback K-Warriors (of which there are about four variants) then yes, they are pretty good. I actually have two of them, but I would recommend getting one of the variants with a shorter slide, since they are a bit more gas efficient and fit in holsters better.

Presumably you mean an airsoft Kimber Warrior? in which case there are several makes, kicking about and you can get both springers and gas blowback airsoft Kimbers, so you need to say which model you are considering

It is emulating emote commands which you sometimes get in MMO computer games; for example, you might type /applaud in an MMO's chat window to make your MMO character in a game start clapping, or /sit to make your character sit down. Thus when someone types /thread, they typically mean: 'I've just proved my point so conclusively, that there is no need for this thread to continue'

Think that's a knock off copy of a B6, the real ones have flush buttons

cheap chinese-made guitars aren't as bad these days as they were back in the seventies, but yes a decent one is easier to play

And, more importantly, when else are you going to get the chance to shoot your parents in the face?

Get an airsoft grenade and roll it into the room when your parents are having Xmas dinner and yell 'fire in the hole!' When the BBs hit them, point out that your were able to get a two kills without pointing a gun at them and no guns were pointed at you either. Sorted.

Then the problem is easily solved; challenge them to a duel to settle the matter; pistols at dawn. If they don't like pointing guns at people, your victory is assured.
