Why, they're still around. (The one I miss is Classic Army) But there are many others now and overall quality has gone up with prices going down.

Heavier BBs are less affected by wind/leaves etc (higher inertia) so fly further/straighter depending on overall power and hop. Lower weight BBs fly faster so if your pew manages to fling them far enough there may not be much point going heavier.

I would say its impossible to 3d print an entire working airsoft mechanism so yeah, shell bits around existing components would be fine.

I also agree with ButcherBill. £30 is a very good price for renting so take advantage until you are registered with UKARA. Each time you go you'll be able to talk to others about their pews and maybe test them too so you can get a better idea of what suits you. Nothing worse than rushing into a purchase (even if you think you're taking your time) and realising you made a poor choice. The sales section always has them and you will lose a lot of money trying to sell a two tone.

Yes, its likely the battery isn't powerful enough. Look for a 7.4v LiPo with the highest mAh (How long it lasts) and C (Max burst power) rating you can find that will fit in the battery space. All the usual places I would look (Turnigy/HobbyKing/ComponentShop) seem to be out of stock 🙄 But remember you'll also need a decent charger to make sure charge is optimal. Do a search on the forum as chargers have been discussed before. Also consider changing connectors to DEANS (T-plugs) for best current flow. EDIT THIS battery should work (check size) THIS charger (or similar) is the most basic THIS charger is good and a good price but note that it needs the DEANS connector on the battery.

Butchers make too much money 🤣

Welcome ✋ Yeah, lots of good info here and maybe some crap too 😄

Unfortunately I don't know any in your area but you can check HERE for sites near you and look at reviews.

Welcome ✋ Outdoors is a whole different experience. Slower paced and more strategic. Let us know how you get on

Sorry to hear Snuff. Even if you have to reduce the number of game days, be thankful you can still play. Some of us(me) can't play at all anymore 😢

Hope you informed an admin. (Report)

Me neither. (PC & Android)

Higher power DOES put more stress on the gear set and bearings.

Quality over quantity 😁 All metal version weighing a satisfying 1.75kg And newest toy. Limited usefulness in a game but so cute and fun
