You should know they don't fire inside except in the back room and that is only to Chrono.  Clay owns the store now, so it's not Cybergun's, so firing inside will get you A) Thrown or or B) if you work there, fired.

And the one at SAD is the 8mm, just like the one thats on WGC.  Justin, I sent out a few emails, give me a few days, and I'll find you one.

The bottom line is, SAD is...well...SAD!

SAD isn't terrible. They're not helping the sport any, but when you've just GOT to have something, they fit the bill nicely. JT's never going to carry high end/enthusiast parts, and has a super limited selection of mags.

Then order from a US based retailer....SAD is a last resort... But back on subject..how come you don't like 8mm? Have you shot any 8mm rifles?

yeah, the 8mm can be messed with by the wind even more, just a tiny bit of wind wouldnt mess with a 6mm bb, but it would fuck with the 8mm soo much.

So your telling me I can have a more accurate 9mm than a .50?...Yeah...Im going to need some proof on that one. The bb will not only be heavier but have a larger mass so the air would not effect it as much as its own inertia and gravity....Hence why when you fire a .12 and then a .2 the .12 will take off like bug and wander while the .2 stays on course longer..

wow... ok, you shoot a 6mm .43, then a 8mm .43... I think that because the 8mm is bigger, it would slow down faster because air is hitting it more, and also, the wind hits it more...

and im talking about size, not just weight

The 6mm M1 Carbine is far more accurate than the 8mm version.  Not only was there an article I read on it, I also talked to a guy who has shot both/owned both.

Andy.. you lost, man. The 8mm is far less accurate. I've fired 8mm guns. The only good one was Daves Bren. But that was a nbb.

And the difference of your .12 and .2 compared to our 6 to 8.. we're talking size! And, am I wrong in saying, that the 8's and 6's are the same weight?

Not asking you, busta.. asking someone knowledgeable! :P

Well, for one, I am not competing. It's a fucking forum so get over it. But, until someone can actually show me or prove to me through formula different, I have to believe the guy I have talked to.
