A beautiful piece of weaponry you have there El, I love it. How much of a difference do you see between the 6mm and 8mm BB?

I've heard that it has a fixed hop-up. That was the only thing for me that prevented me from getting one.

Just wait until you are hiding in some shrubs and he starts lobbing 8mm goodness at you. You'll think he's shooting real bullets when branches and shit start snapping off. 8mm is the shit! Seriously though El now is the time we need to start a WWII group. I've been waiting for an excuse to start buying up gear, now you gave it to me

No, It has an adjustable Hop Seriously though El now is the time we need to start a WWII group. I've been waiting for an excuse to start buying up gear, now you gave it to me Thats a preeeeeeety garand. Wish I had one. You have WWII gear to go with that? Not yet, the Garand and the spare clips set my budget back a LOT. Jump, Im all for some WWII airsoft. Perhaps its time we start a new team? I for one want to go head to head agains Bowen and his Marushin Kar98K 8mm. I just need an "Easy Company" Loadout. Or shoot at a rubber shark with a scuba tank in his mouth

Haha took me a minute to figure out the shark reference, but I got it Just a little slow... I've been researching german gear all afternoon, costs more than the American stuff i've been meaning to buy for a long, long time. Bottom line it costs 500 to get started and another 1000 to be exact. Regardless the MP-40 is going to be bought on the first damnit!

Shot her today....... after I woke up at 1:30 with El pointing a Garand at my face and yelling something at me. My mom letting El into the house while I'm still sleeping = bad.
She shoots pretty well I must say. 8mm is scary.
{EL Edit- I said "Smile you Son-of-a-bitch!"

German gear is expensive online. Go to a trade show/gun show. You'll find some deals I promise.

Or shoot at a rubber shark with a scuba tank in his mouth I have been wanting to get some german gear too, because WWII is uber. "I think WWII was my favorite war." German gear is expensive online. Go to a trade show/gun show. You'll find some deals I promise. yeah, it is. but from what i've seen the Fallschirmjaeger stuff is less expensive than the Heer and SS stuff.
