Would sure increase the level of people taking cover! :lol:

It would be nice to be able to shoot through sheet metal to get the guy on the other side.

Just like in Navy Seals, God uses his 50 to shoot through the brick walls.

No shit! Kinda like the looks those that buy M249 SAWs hope to get when they show up on the field with it! Lol, except, hi-velocity .34g 8mm BBs!!!! Seriously, my M24 shooting .2g BBs at about 420fps, whe I shoot .36g, you hear a WHOOSH if it goes by your head within a few feet. If you are attacking a base, the .36g BBs (travelling at about 315fps) hit wood with a smack loud enough to be heard a few hundred feet away. Imagine a .34g 8mm BB flying at 400+fps!?!?! Would at LEAST leave a dent!!! Lol............. ouch!

Ahh I just read, propane with give you about 450 fps........how awsome then CO2 will be used for plinking squirrels and such.

ILLusion · June 4th, 2005, 18:42

not very.

A $150 canadian tire 495fps pellet gun shooting pointed/domed/flat head lead pellets will have greater penetration and stopping power than an airsoft BB at 700fps.

With greater accuracy to boot.

I know I know, but this way I can pretend I'm that guy from Saving Private Ryan while I shoot cause ill have a better copy of a real gun. It probly sounds sweeter too.

What are you, some kind of moron?

Rumpel Felt · June 5th, 2005, 13:52

You can honestly say you wouldn't attemp that with such a beautiful beast.

nic_s · June 6th, 2005, 20:40

No shit... who the fuck shoots squirrels anyways? Unless you plan on eating it that's fucked.

EDIT:
The reason this pisses me off so much is because I know someone who shoots animals like this, and I think it is extremely cruel. I have no problems killing an aggresor in a combat environment, but this is pointless. :xmas:

i bought it, its great ;-)
with redgas a range of 150-200 meters... that makes 680 fps with 0.34 8mm BBs... thats illegal... just for information

Sniper1111 · December 26th, 2005, 17:36

I am saving up for one just wondering if I was use propane would this lower the fps to the legal limit? Besides that I heard they have alot of problems with the valve and such.

The problem with the valve is: the gas is pushing against the valve spring!!! Sooner or later the spring will be "tired" and the gas will start leaking... Or if you use stronger gas. If they will not completely rebuild the valve at all, the problems would not end.
Quoted by Harry.

Also they replaced the valve system so instead of shooting 100 shots before it becomes useless you are now able to shot 200 before it becomes a paper weight.

To top that off they had problems with the hop up and changed it to rubber which seemed stronger and more pliable.

Ive also heard its inaccurate.

But im stubborn and I well continue to save for it. Let me know if you have any problems with it. Or if you can prove me wrong.
