Sturdy bolt action rifle that will last for years? - General

Lol alright, I think a few of you misunderstood me, I mean shooting at his legs with a light springer once or so.

[QUOTE=ossumsauce;32628142]I don't think you're getting us, we're telling you don't do that, there's always a chance of injury.[/QUOTE] Theres a chance of injury with anything. I'm 22, I don't think my friends going to complain if he gets a boo-boo :-)

[QUOTE=skeligandrew;32628347]Theres a chance or injury with anything.[/QUOTE] Yeah, sure, but a chance of injury with airsoft guns-in england- means more than you could imagine. I can see the headlines now: CHILD GETS EYE SHOT OUT BY TOY "AIRSOFT" GUN; SHOULD "AIRSOFT" GUNS BE BANNED?

Shit, tell that to the young toerags running around with a £5 springer shooting random people.

[QUOTE=skeligandrew;32628422]Shit, tell that to the young toerags running around with a £5 springer shooting random people.[/QUOTE] That's not the point. The point is, don't endanger your own sport. Don't fuck it up for everyone else or you'll find an angry mob outside your door one morning. What other morons do is/isn't your problem. It's your problem if they're right there and you can tell them to fuck off, but don't use them as an example why you should be able to do something.

What started off as a joke has turned into a total shitstorm. I was considering making my own replica thompson m1a1 airsoft gun, I like a bit of a challenge.

[QUOTE=felix the cat;32628911]Why? There's already like 4 companies that make them[/QUOTE] For a one of a kind, something that I made myself, and no plastic parts.

[QUOTE=skeligandrew;32628347]Theres a chance of injury with anything. I'm 22, I don't think my friends going to complain if he gets a boo-boo :-)[/QUOTE] meh, just get a watergun [editline]4th October 2011[/editline] or a nerf gun

Or get a nerf vulcan gun and pull a Deathmog and use it in an actual airsoft game.

i like how that watergun has the selector switch in the right position yet like 80% of all videogames ever have it in the "safe" position

[QUOTE=the_killer24;32629113][img]http://www.airsoftpost.com/images/large/Watergun_SA_TU20001N_lg.jpg[/img] genious[/QUOTE] But if the water stream deflects off his leg and hits him in the eye it could equal water guns getting taken off the shelves, and result in an angry mob outside my house.

[QUOTE=skeligandrew;32628347] I'm 22, I don't think my friends going to complain if he gets a boo-boo :-)[/QUOTE] Go get your UKARA, buy a non shitty airsoft gun and then play in proper games.

An airsoft pellet can cause serious damage to the eye.

Abandon thread, like 80 replies and only a few are relevant :') [editline]4th October 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=stabbytheghost;32629205]No nobody would care, it is just another liquid that you are shooting into your buddies eye.

can we just please stop arguing with this guy he's obviously not going to listen to what we say

[QUOTE=venom;32629240]can we just please stop arguing with this guy he's obviously not going to listen to what we say[/QUOTE] You airsofters sure are a fun bunch, I'll come back with some knock knock jokes, you might actually be able to recognize those as a joke.

alright come back later then maybe while you're gone i'll joke about stabbing your mother but its okay because it's just a joke right

Sure, its the internet.

and your mother is just a megabyte on the internet then doesnt matter what happens irl if its just a joke on the internet [editline]4th October 2011[/editline] why am i still here

This guy's an idiot. I'm leaving before Postal delivers some mail.

[QUOTE=the_killer24;32629113][img]http://www.airsoftpost.com/images/large/Watergun_SA_TU20001N_lg.jpg[/img] genious[/QUOTE] I got one of those to discipline my cat. Shit's baller.

[QUOTE=Nekrietns;32626930]But... Eyes don't contain any nerve endings, you wouldn't feel it.[/QUOTE] If your statement was true (it's not), you still be completely fucked because your eye would turn into jello. Eyes aren't the only thing you need to protect when playing Airsoft, you SHOULD protect your entire face, and NEVER remove eye protection whilst playing.

I raised my balaclava for a second to get some fresh air, and BAM. Dude flinch-shot me because he didn't know I was around the corner. BB embedded in my cheek. If that hurt THAT much, I can't imagine how much it would hurt to have a BB embed into your eye.

[QUOTE=skeligandrew;32629049]For a one of a kind, something that I made myself, and no plastic parts.[/QUOTE] Well in that case I hope you have lots of nice machining equiptment

[QUOTE=felix the cat;32631768]Well in that case I hope you have lots of nice machining equiptment[/QUOTE] Don't need much but a pillar drill, jigsaw, chisels and files.

[QUOTE=skeligandrew;32637765]Don't need much but a pillar drill, jigsaw, chisels and files.[/QUOTE] Uh, no. A drill, jigsaw, chisels, and files are not the total sum of the components you need to build a gun.

Guys, I think he's just trolling us. Ignore him.

Guns like the Thompson are/were machined out of solid blocks of steel. tbh, if you try to do this without the proper equipment and skills, it's going to look like shit. If you want to "build your own" Thompson, I'd suggest just getting a Denix and modding the airsoft internals into it
