    Should more sites weigh the bbs during chrono?

    Mmm. Biohazard is pretty good, and did actually in-game chrono an HPA pistol user who I fingered for blasting me shockingly hard.  And they checked his gun with their own 0.2g BBs, also good. But what if he was actually running heavy BBs?  My fingernail chrono suggests that he was.

    Should more sites weigh the bbs during chrono?

    That makes sense for CQB sites, it's what BioHazard and the Depot do near me. Outdoors, sites don't tend to do it because of the wider range of BB weights, but I think that's a bogus argument.  Sites could be putting in (for the sake of argument) 0.36g BBs, which are at the upper end of what...

    Probably bought it for £60 there, like I did last year. :D

    Sure, no problem. And you're right that there's no offence committed by you selling RIFs, it's purely a forum rule.  I appreciate your honesty in disclosing your age, that's  - somewhat paradoxically - a sign of maturity.

    HARASSED ON AIRSOFT HUB

    Thoughts conveyed. This drama too shall pass, and it'll pass sooner if you ignore it.  If you're bothered by the feedback, just create a new account: it's not like reputation matters there.

    Should more sites weigh the bbs during chrono?

    Why would someone planning to lie to you tell such an obvious lie?  They'd be under 1.2J with anything up to 0.45g anyway. We're talking about the situation where Harry Hotgun says "Yeah, mate, using point twos today, mate", chronos at 350fps, then walks onto the field shooting 2J with the...

    HARASSED ON AIRSOFT HUB

    /thread AirsoftHub isn't going to give a stuff. Some joker posted an advert purporting to be a real Glock - with a loaded magazine - there. Multiple people reported it to them, and yet it was up for months, and might still be there for all I know. I know this drama seems real to you and your...

    Should more sites weigh the bbs during chrono?

    I honestly have no idea what this is meant to mean. If my gun is shooting hot with 0.36g, but tell you that I'm using 0.25g, how can you tell? It does seem likely that insurers are happy with sites running a fundamentally farcical "Trust me bro" system. Until something does go wrong, and then...

    Should more sites weigh the bbs during chrono?

    Then what was the point of the chrono? If you believe players about their BB weight, why wouldn't you just believe them when they say "I'm shooting at 1.1J" ? It's a genuine question. If we can agree that telling a simple lie make the chrono calculation meaningless, then does it really matter...

    On that, I did some health and safety liability training last century - specifically about how to avoid being sued or charged when things go wrong, as they will. It was drilled in that the worst thing you can do from a liability perspective is to identify a risk, and then put in...

    Well, they bill the buyer for it.  I do wonder how much is rendered unto Caesar. Caesar Smith, he works in HMRC. Good bloke, very active in the local Rotary Club.

    Should more sites weigh the bbs during chrono?

    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...

    Should more sites weigh the bbs during chrono?

    They provide a chrono so that players can check themselves. There seems to be some confusion here. If a site doesn't provide their own BBs or weigh the player's BBs, players can simply lie that we're using a lighter weight of BB than we're actually using.  It makes the Joules figures...
