did you know, Pigeons are kinda like the praying mantis, they die after sex, well the last ones I fucked did anyway...

Aye, to clarify, when I say I want to run it, I dont mean field it at 1.4j, thats a great way to never be able to play in my area again! I've got this in it atm to regulate it down https://www.bullseyecountrysport.co.uk/swiss-arms-kwc-airsoft-piston--nozzle-1-joule-kit-for-1911-co2-pistol-63045-p.asp and its doing the job (quite) nicely but performance does suffer a tad. I'm getting about 35 /40m atm with .25's and max hop, beebs arent too floaty and head nice and straight but start to drop off after that, groupings of about 4" at 20m and up to 7" at 40m ish so its probably not a bad bucking, I'd imagine it'd be a LOT worse than that if it were... I'll see about trying different weights and see if that helps but it's probably just my internal range finder is off by a few yards (although its probably just dirtier than a whores drawers!) Either way its gonna be a backyard plinker for lobbing steels / ally's whilst I get something a little less cumbersome / lumpy to field in the new year. probably a nice little GBB Glock or something, preferably still co2 though due to living in a cold area. thanks for the replies tho peeps, muchly appreciated

It should be OK imo, I've rejoined wires with as little as a windproof lighter and some solder on a field before, the issues it could cause however are as follows, a bad solder joint can increase the resistance in the wires it's on which can cause the solder joint to heat up under full auto and potentially break the connection, the increased resistance can also make your gun run slower sooner as the battery's voltage decreases, this shouldn't be a massive issue though as it's not likely to destroy the gun or make it explode, if it feels like it's dying quicker than normal consider refreshing the joint, the best way to rejoin them would be to tin both ends of wire with solder (use high temperature solder with a flux core if you can), then using the iron get them both nice and hot, (I often use clothes pegs to hold the 2 wires stable whilst I do this) and once hot. Dab a little more solder on to flow the joint nicely, finish up with a good blow, some heatshrink or sparkies tape.

Sorry to have to revive this topic, but this whole power limit thing is confusing the arse off of me, specifically; Section 57a subsection 4 states This to me would suggest different style pistols have different power limits? for example a glock with a switch can only fire at 1.3j due to having a full auto function whereas a revolver or straight semi auto pistol can fire at 2.5j? I cant actually find anywhere in the legislation that suggests otherwise other than the limit of 6ftlbs on air pistols but even then, with all the calculations out the way a 1j pistol firing 6mm .25's is .87 ftlbs so definitely not up to airgun standards... Hopefully one or more of you lovely lot can help clarify this for me as its almost making my ears bleed trying to work out what the f these silly wigged people in power have written into law. asking due to my pistol performing worse than paper straws in maccys milkshakes whilst restriced to 1j muzzle velocity (I would like to run it at the 1.4j it was originally shipped with). MASSIVE thanks in advance. (Links for further reading / swearing at would be very much appreciated)
