In a time of austerity the airsoft community needs to take the hit as well and do what it can to help. Having seen the sheer number of used BBs just lying unwanted on the ground I have decided to start collecting them up and will selling bottles of used BBs at discounted prices.

 

Each bottle will contain genuine used BBs in a variety colours and weights from all major and minor manufacturers. Unlimited stock levels for one additional free bottle with each order just quote you UKARA license number.

 

Key advantages as follows:

 

Colour mix - great for confusing the opposition team into thinking there are more players shooting at them because of all the different colours. Tracer BBs included at no extra cost.

 

Hassle free hop set-up - mixed weights will mean that there will always be some BBs in each bottle perfectly suited to your gun, simples.

 

Aerodynamic performance - some BBs may have small dents and dimples just like golf balls and so they will fly further and faster than smooth BBs!

 

Environmentally friendly - used BBs save the planet's plastic resources and is an example of true recycling (supported by European Green parties).

 

Nearly new condition - used BBs are almost as good as new ones, having only been fired once so mint condition, a real bargain.

 

Proven track record - used BBs have already been fired which proves that they are fully working.

 

 

So, if you want to receive your bottle of used BBs (as well as help save the environment and do your bit for austerity) then click the LIKE button.

Josh, you can't reuse BBs in your weapons as once shot they could be marked, chipped what ever which can do damage to your hop, bucking, barrel etc.

JBBG have been doing this for yonks

 

BullDog aka BULL$HIT bb's

 

actually they wasn't that bad - worst ones so far been BBGuns4Less - FireBall 0.25's

f*ck me they are dire eggs shape crap think 1 in 3 or 4 fire really short

(if TriggerHappy says it coz of G&G - pi$$ off :))

 

WOOOOHOOOOOO my 2,000th post of utter $hite

(damn I wish I wasn't outbidded on the "Get a Life" fleabay auction yesterday)

 

Maybe if you had designed a fancy new CQB site

You could make the floor slightly sloped with a gulley for them to run/collect into

making it easier to clear up/recycle and keep the corridors main paths free of bb's

 

Reality this would require a lot of careful planning/costs into a decent indoor arena site

Alas most sites can't afford this much planning/budget as well as time to construct a false floor

No doubt though there must be $hitloads of bb's need clearing after each player has fired off say 2k

heck even 1k for semi only indoor cqb say - 2 teams of 20 = 40k +

that is a lot of bb's rolling around and will need tidying up

where do there go......

 

The Trimex recycling plant of course :)

Even using them in such things could be a bad idea, I bb that is damaged form being used is more likely to shatter, which would be bad considering the around of people who use mesh googles.

 

It does seems like there should be something they can be used for though

One of the risks of buying anything 2nd hand is you don't know if it's stolen, or has any outstanding finance on it. And with airsoft there's the added risk of catching Paintball Transmitted Diseases if the BB was used in a HPA system.

 

If anyone is concerned about the validity of any 2nd hand BB's purchased from Jedi Master or other fine eco-warrior retailers, please post a picture of your BB(s) and list their serial number(s) and we'll be happy to verify it for you.

Note: (Serial number is written in magic ink on all BB's under UK(ara) law, and may not be visible/display correctly if you're a twat)

I've heard of people especially snipers washing bb's. Tight fisted bastards won't even fork out the dough for some pre-owned bb's

Maybe I've missed the giggle, but:

 

I think they mean washing them before using them (i.e. when they're new), which is equally pointless. Some companies use a dry lubricant during the polishing process that stays on the BBs - I say simply don't use those brands as it builds up in your barrel a lot quicker.

 

It's hard man. There's so much confusion in this thread that I can't tell joke from serious - I guess we can call it a success.

 

On the upside, if you're a sniper using Mixed Weight™ PREmium-owned® BBs, then your shots are going to land in completely different places and the enemy is going to have no idea where you're shooting from. There's big potential for this I tell ya.
