FPS check?

Is there any way to check if the fps of my gun exceeds 350? What pfs is required to pierce both sides of a pop can? My gun is stock Kraken and I have not fielded it yet, the box said 370 fps but I felt a slight decrease since I first used it. I just want to check and make sure that I can use it at the Zombie game.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There are usualy chronies at fields, just test it when you go to play. Or use the search button and locate the pop can method

The 100% accurate way is to buy a Chrony. The rest is educated guesses based on hoping the cans are the same.

Thanks for the link. I did search on my own, I knew there was a pop can test just couldn’t find it. I just didn’t want to get there and find out my gun is 10fps over the limit.

The pop can system is not accurate, so do not depend on it. The 'can' may say one thing, but the electronic chronometer is what counts.

Simple solution is not to use a hot gun when you are new, or use the upgrade guides then give yourself a %20 margin of error on the safe side.
