We use .20g exclusively indoor since guns are chronoed every game to make sure they're within field limits. That and we're to lazy to do the math to figure out what a gun is shooting if someone is using a different weight BB... Our indoor arena has no areas where using a heavier BB will improve your accuracy either, shooting distances are between 5ft and 12ft almost everywhere with the exception of some of the longer halls.

We also don't allow full auto during indoor, so shots are almost always placed accurately.

I like semi auto only games, but only if I have a pistol. Right now, I own no sidearm, just my rifle, so semi would be a major pain in the ass.

I think the only .20 or .25 g bb's I have is in a some 1000 pack or so and they are orange, been carrying them since 06 lol since all I had was a spring then. I only have like 500 rounds left so I refraining from using them until I go to a store and buy .25 gram bb's. Also this is some crazy shit.

Rare 800 Rounds of 0.80g Super Heavy 6mm Airsoft Target Shooting Practice BB

I have never seen a 6mm airsoft bb's like these. It's almost like real metal bb guns you pump and .etc. I wonder if these will make you bleed if you ever accidentally shoot yourself after you just charged a gun or so. Or even the power to kill squirrels and such...


Also fuck semi-auto, I just lightly pull the mp40 and it spray's like 3-5 bb's.

E: If my mp40 is on semi-auto it just locks up after 10 shots.

Technically, the MP.40 is only supposed to be full auto since it had no fire selector in real life. The MP.41, however, was select-fire. Also, most guns will lock up like that in semi auto. Mine does. It's because the motor gets set up into a fix where it doesn't have the momentum to pull that heavy spring from where the last shot left it. Solution: don't pull the trigger so quickly.

Meh. I don't use semi-auto at all, seems pointless to me unless im out in the open and need to save ammo and not reload so much

What kind of grouping can he get at his longest range, and how far is that?

He posted the results for accuracy today, tests conducted indoor.

5 shots at 100ft with .43g BB's within 5"
5 shots at 150ft with .43g BB's within 6"
5 shots at 300ft with .43g BB's within 8"

So he can shoot a football field in length with 8" accuracy indoors, time will tell what it's like outdoors.

You do know he's banned, yes? Still, good info to know.

[Cortexian]

He obviously has a minimum of 5 alt accounts, isn't it a rule? How else would this website still be populated?

Being outdoors is so much different then indoors. You have the wind to count on curving the bb making it not dead on.

Also what does a hop-up do? Cause on my mp40 I pull it back and the bb's curve up, its fun to if you shoot sideways get'm behind cover lawl.

EE: what the hell, I bought .24g 6mm bb's, Also warsaw, since they didn't ship it off yesterday I will be expecting it around Monday-Wednesday

Also if you guys bought any bb's under .20g, they will break in half if it slams against anything really except for soda cans and cardboard boxes, then again if it hits anything and is still intact it is cracked from the inside.

[Cortexian]

Depends on the quality of the BB, there are some nice double polished .12g BB's out there for some reason and they'll never break apart like that. Only bad quality BB's break apart in your guns, like the BB's you get from Wal•Mart.

Hopup puts a backspin on the BB, it's the airsoft equivalent of barrel rifling. Keeps the BB going straight over a longer distance without being effected by wind as much.
