well it would be a bit expensive, but anyway an 8mm bb would hert less than a 6mm, because of resistence and pressure due to surface area.....i'm pretty sure anyway and a 450 fps wouldn't be that bad, especially with gear on. besides that its pretty sick i think.

correct me if im wrong... but the reason paintballs hurt more is the reason they're BIGGER. more weight means more momentum, which means it takes more wind resistance to slow it down.   whereas 6mm's are very light, which means they slow down alot faster.

8mm BBs have a wider impact area therefore less impact force.

Here's a good example, if you've ever been paintballing and you get hit and the ball just break, it hurts like hell.  But when it does break it just stings a little.

seems like a practical item for military use, on prisoner's and such, he he.
would probably make a good support sniper deal.
If only we could get enough airsoft guns to shoot from practical distances.

I love it.  Plain and simple, it is bad ass.  Effective....Yes.  Turn down the velocity.....non-leathal.  Cost of use......if you can buy a gun that costs thousands of $$$, I dont think you care about the price of BB's
