Spring Power!! / APS2 Downgrade = accurate?
« on: July 29, 2005, 05:59:40 PM »
When I found out that my aps2 was shooting 540..I was a bit upset, But atleast that helped me understand all the crazy ranges I was getting at the Prescot game. So I got a different spring, my guess is its shooting.. 470.. give or take. Its got .04 more BB weight than my m4 and it will go about 20 feet further... sucks, I know.. But.. ITS MORE ACCURATE! crazy?! I think so..

Nate told me to go take some pictures where the BB is floating in the air through my scope, so I did. The scope isnt zeroed.. but when you think about how on the 2 pictures where its 3x zoom, they are in the exact same spot, then on the 2 pictures with 9x zoom they are in the exact same spot.. its pretty cool.

(sorry the pics are so.. fuzzy, I was trying to hold the rifle steady, and shoot with one hand, and take a picture with the other hand..)

3x zoom:



9x zoom:




It would look better if I would have zeroed it in.. But from the LCD on the cam.. I couldnt even see the BB.

EDIT: Here is the area:


Somewhat short range, but about 20 ft past that wall.. the bb would start to fall.

If you're new to airsoft, or traveling.. take a year to learn the sport. I took a year, I skipped LC3.

And, cancel everything I said. I mean.. I'd fly there, meet who at the aiport? I can't get a car.. since I'm not 21, I wouldn't know where to go, etc. I'd be so lost. Money wouldn't be the issue.. the plane ticket there and back would do just fine, but everything else, I'd screw up on, and end up at like.. Ny, Ny.


That goes for me too.....
I want to go to this pretty bad... any way some of us can go together?

I sent them an email asking for prices, Thanks Sarge.

I guess ill get the 510 if it works with NV too.

Here is the NV I would like to get, its not all that fancy, but it works great, and its not $10,000 so im alright with it :-D. I saw someone with the same thing at JT, and he let me check it out, I loved it, it was so kick ass.

SUPER GRAND MASTER .29! YEAH!


.. for when I snipe that is..


Edit: Reason - I think the main things for a sniper rifle is, range, and accuracy.
- Now I could use the .43 bb's and still have it be somewhat accurate (they are made bad, they arent as accurate as ppl say they are), but its so heavy.. it would mess with the range, the only good thing about them is they can break through bushes and the wind wont mess with them, but .29 is also like that, just not to that extent.
- The .29's are the best BB's ever made, thus the crazy price. They let me shoot just as accurate as the .43's if not more accurate, but at a longer range. if your rifle is 500 fps, and you use .29, hitting someone at 250 - 280 feet IS possible, with .43, 230 would be about your average.

I test my rifles in my yard, and from the bench that I shoot from to the wall is about 200 feet, give or take. When I had a stock inner barrel (6.05) it make it to the wall, but about 3 - 4 feet below where I wanted it to hit. The .29 would SMACK into the wall and not drop an inch.


.. Just thought you would like to know why I blow all my money on BB's.. :)

Yeah, I always try to think of the resell price, when I resell my M1 carbine, I wont be able to say its not how it comes when its new, Because if the new owner would want it to be the scout version, he can make it the scout version, if he wants it to be the stock version, he can take off the buttplate, scope, scope mount, rail, change the inner barrels and outer barrels, and change the stock, then it will be like how it was when I got it.

General Airsoft Discussion / Eotech Help
« on: July 22, 2005, 01:37:56 AM »
ok, well, if you have seen my m1 thread.. you know I want to get an Eotech for it. Id like to have nightvision later, so I think the nightvision eotech is the best choice, but whats so different about the night vision ones? Can I not use nightvision with a standard Eotech? How does the night vision option work? If you know, please post. I want to know if I should spend the extra money on the NV version.

eh, the classic wwII version is... how it comes stock. and all I would need to do is take off the scope, change the stocks, and take off the rail, then its a classic WWII rifle.

UPDATE

Ebony finish done...

... I dont like it, I think ill sand it down and just paint it black. The ebony is too.. shiny, and it sticks to my hands too much, I just dont like it at all. If it was for show... sure, it would be nice, but I dont want this on a stand in my room I want to kick ass with it in games.

And another "mod" would be the easy hopup adjustment hole I drilled in the rail, it may look a little off center, but its perfect..

This way I dont need to take a bunch of shit off of it to do a little change in the hopup unit.

Did you have to dremel out a bunch of the rail or the gun?

Both..


As you can see, I had to drill a little off the sides at the top of the gap in the stock so that the bolts would be able to fit in the stock.


I had to dremel a BUNCH out of the rail just to get it to lay flat on the outer barrel.
It looks pretty bad huh? But.. from the outside you cant see it, and it works, what more do you need?

I think.. tomorrow, ill stain the stock black. :-D
Staining the stock would look sweet, but the wood gives it that special something you don't see in alot of guns.
BTW, the gun looks extremly sexy. I really like the way the scope looks on your gun.

THANKS! And... I cant get black stain, so I got ebony stain, that will just make the wood dark as it can get without paint. And I thought it would be a bit like paint.. where you just paint it and let it dry for a half hour.. but NoOoOo, you gotta wait 5 hours between each coat...

And that scope does rock, I found it on wgc, then Andy found the same thing but real.. so its a real scope, just a ripoff of the real brand.. But I dont know if I want to take it off and put an eotech on it.. I want an eotech, because they are so bad ass!.. but I like the look of that scope on it.

And in other news... I think I might add the small swivel harris bipod to it.. :-D

How accurate is it?

Not too... YET! Im working on that. The hopup isnt complicated at all, maybe ill get a new one made, and the inner barrel is 6.05, so ill buy a 6.03 G3 inner barrel, and have someone make the end of it custom. Then I will use .28 BB's so it will break through bushes and be more accurate.
