Arwen Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 My local site has a temporary ban on Blasters. Over the past few game days they have found them to be shattering and a few guys who wear mesh have had the splinters in there eyes. More who wear lower mesh masks have had a mouth full of shattered bb's. The site shop has sold blasters for ages, so they reckon it is just a bad batch. It's mentioned at the morning briefing and people are asked not to use them. They only time I have seen/heard of bb's being confiscated is when a group of teenagers turned up with tow-tone's and bottles of bright yellow generic looking 0.12g bb's... They got them back at the end of the day though. I've not used 6mm ammo either, but their prices do look pretty good. I may try them out at some point.

Mostly Retired Moderators L3wisD Posted July 23, 2018 Mostly Retired Moderators Share Posted July 23, 2018 Hey guys! In case you were sitting on the fence about trying 6mm ammo I got in touch and asked him if he'd be kind enough to make us our own little discount code. He very kindly has: Quote Hey Lewis, thanks for getting in touch! I'm glad to hear that 6mm Ammo has appeared on your radar and you like our BBs! Since you asked so nicely I'll happily give you a discount code that you can distribute on the forum. I can create a code (let's call it airsoft-forums) and that will give you 10% off all products. Apply the code at checkout and remember that it's case-sensitive! Thank you and regards, Max Director, 6mm Ammo Ltd At least it's a bit cheaper to try them out and make your own opinion of them now. If you're reading this Mr. 6mm Ammo - please feel free to join the forum and make a thread in the "Places to buy" section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mostly Retired Moderators L3wisD Posted July 24, 2018 Mostly Retired Moderators Share Posted July 24, 2018 You can opt for free 2nd class as well, which then makes it even cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDcase Posted July 24, 2018 Author Share Posted July 24, 2018 That's very cool of him! Thanks for the heads-up L3wisD. A bit worrying about the Blasters since they're probably the most popular? I'm very interested to hear the results of Gasman's tests... I gave him some 0.25g 6AMMO to check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterG Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 I shoot mainly blasters, when I try guns at home I'm shooting at a distance of about 8.5 metres. I'm shooting at a plastic milk bottle in the bathroom. When BBs hit the tiles most don't break, and those that do tend to break into large pieces rather than shatter into small bits. It might be an issue with specific batches/weights. I'm using .25s. Cheers G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Testing has been done on some of your range alongside a bunch of other mainstream brands. Hope you find this helpful. Credit to @gasman for coallating data and @MisterG for loading the data into something readable. Hey @Duff, thanks for the welcome, and for sharing this data. That is very interesting. This is the first time we've had any reports of shattering. Can you provide a bit more information about the test conditions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiercel Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Well with the NAE coming up in a few weeks, and wanting to try some .28s over my regular .25s, now seems a good a time as any to try 6mm ammo out. Will see how they compare to my regular ASG Blaster Devils. Theyre pretty much the same price via amazon (local store sells the Blasters at a ripoff price of £14 for a bottle of 3k compared to about £7 on amazon!). What Id really like to see is heavier sniper weights being made at a reasonable price. Paying £15 for a 1k pot of .4s makes my eyes water, even if it does last a while.
