The 'What have you just bought' Thread

[RabidNinja64]

You'll want an npas for the MP7 or it'll be too hot to use.

Can't i just use heavier BB's or weaker gas? I've heard the NPAS kit isnt the greatest thing in the world, so im more dependant on getting my hands on a CQB bolt, which is about as fruitless as the garden of eden being in the hands of vegans.

 

[Mike636]

The problem with using heavier BBs is that most sites chrono with .20s so you will be over at chrono.

Surely the garden of Eden would be pretty well tended to by vegans as all they can eat is fruit?

 

[RabidNinja64]

I'll have to replace vegans with starving army of vegans to further illustrate my point.

and with my first game, they didnt really care to notice the ammo we were using, which was our own. plus, i'm using .20's and was thinking of upping the stakes to .25's, which, to my knowledge is the max the magazine can hold.

Waiiiiiit a second a just got the Vegan thing

 

[RabidNinja64]

I'm glad someone did Anyway, can you or anyone give first-hand impressions on the NPAS kit in terms of the MP7?

Yes to the second, no on the first.

In gas guns, as you increase BB weight your muzzle velocity goes down but muzzle energy actually creeps up and despite the urban myth it's not the velocity that really matters the most. Sites always set their FPS levels "when chrono'd with a 0.2g BB" for that very reason, they're actually checking your muzzle energy but nobody ever phrases it that way.

Energy = Mass x Velocity squared, and all that jazz.

i'm using .20's and was thinking of upping the stakes to .25's, which, to my knowledge is the max the magazine can hold.

Could you elaborate? I've never ever heard of a magazine that was incapable of holding a certain weight of BB. Actual ammunition can feature numerous weights of bullet, but the dimensions of the round (and therefore the capacity of the relevant magazine) stay exactly the same, that applies to airsoft too.

Woops. my bad :L I didnt mean the magazine holding the weight of the BB, i mean (And i'm reading this from the manual) that the gun, or to my knowledge, the barrel can only shoot 2 types of rounds between 0.20 and .25 gram BB's, nothing heavier is referenced, so im assuming this is the norm for all GBB guns?

Also, I haven't necessarily changed out my rounds from 0.20's, so im unaware of any first-hand experience with heavier BB's and sometimes passed the thought that it the higher the gram, the bigger the BB

 

[jcheeseright]

No, bb dimensions are pretty static. 5.95mm or thereabouts, regardless of weight. Your gun will be able to fire anything as long as it's 6mm.

Your hop up may not be able to lift really heavy BBs but it'll definitely do .30.
