Tariq Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 It's fine at that FPS. Really. Also you have joule creep to keep in mind. You might actually gain FPS when compared to the FPS/weight calculator. Gas guns work in a weird but wonderful way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters TheFull9 Posted January 3, 2014 Supporters Share Posted January 3, 2014 Yeah you'll wanna keep an eye on that (speaking generally to anybody here that might not know) you might only be doing say 330 on a 0.2 with a far lower muzzle velocity on a 0.28 etc, but with such a long barrel in a GBBr (the L85 especially is roughly the same as a 20" M16) your muzzle energy could well be much too high for site safety limits.

Supporters Airsoft-Ed Posted January 3, 2014 Supporters Share Posted January 3, 2014 I'll chrono using the weight I intend to use and keep within the conversion chart limits. I think all sites should have to chrono via that method anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters TheFull9 Posted January 3, 2014 Supporters Share Posted January 3, 2014 They should indeed, not hard to have a conversion chart printed and kept on a table next to the chrono station. I'd bet money a lot of people are breaking the safety rules without the foggiest idea they're even doing it. Specially when you see so many people on different forums recommending heavier weight ammo for GBB weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam_G Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Picked up this today. took a drive to Poole to visit Z1. Happy with the deal in the end as i asked them to price match milspec Solutions...so they did knocking £45 off their price! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tariq Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 Conversion charts dont work Ed. Energy wise: 1J on a 0.2g would be like 330fps, 1J on 0.3g would be 270fps. But joule creep actually means you get something like 285fps on a 0.3g which would mean 1.15J. Thats 0.15J increase without doing anything to your gun apart from changing BB weight. Technically however most sites state 350fps on 0.2g, not a joule limit therefore you havn't broken any of their rules. You would still be within legal limits too so not a huge thing to worry about. This is a thing with GBBRs as the bb doesnt stop accelerating until it leaves the barrel, thus gaining more speed. Picked up this today. took a drive to Poole to visit Z1. Happy with the deal in the end as i asked them to price match milspec Solutions...so they did knocking £45 off their price! Lol You'd think they'd just put down their standard price to match, rather than waiting for people to ask. Thats a huge gap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russe11 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I've been toying with getting a rubber weapon for melee kills. Toyed with various ideas, rubber knives, bayonets and axes have all been done so I narrowed it down to a shoto sword http://www.amazon.co.uk/Martial-Black-Polypropylene-Plastic-Training/dp/B00GYZK81Q/ref=pd_sim_sbs_sg_2 but then I saw something in the suggestions at the bottom of the page http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00GYZFK1E/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 A Kukri! It seemed more military and less ninja, but it should scare some ppl Grenade pouches in DPM and Coyote and a radio pouch. Ian_Gere 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tariq Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Yeah but even as they are, they can still do a fair bit of damage if you were to slip or something. Although i still claim more damage can be done with a flash hider from a gun. Especially the AK slanted compensators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russe11 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 hmm, I wonder if I cut along the wavy line at the edge of the textured bit and then made a replacement craft foam insert... My other idea for a melee weapon was to use a fly swat painted matt black with velcro to attach one of these: Ian_Gere 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
