  1. There was a time when the BBs we know as "Ultrasonic" didn't have a special name at all.

    ToyStar-Cybergun-Accessories-Pellets-0.12-Gram-Champions-Choice-5000-77502-05.JPG

    This is an example of such pellets: The "Champion's Choice" 0.12 gram pellets, which were manufactured in Korea by ToyStar. Apparently, they were recommended by Eric Grauffel, world champion ISPC. Exactly what he himself recommended them for is unclear. That being said, the label claims that the BBs work best with "super-soft and "softairs" that fire with 0.3 J, 230 FPS, and 73 MPS. I believe that this instruction is much more agreeable than claims made by the later Ultrasonic BB labels.

    Another interesting point, is that the color of the jar's lid can be used to roughly identify its region of manufacture. One should certainly find the "Made In..." text on the container or its label to confirm.

    Of course, these pellets are not recommended for replicas that ascend from LPEG/springer status. Most of these BBs do have visible seams, though, comparing them to the Chinese-made ultrasonic pellets, they are indeed subjectively superior in regards to quality-control. Though, even if the seams are controlled or not present at all, they still suffer from a larger air-pocket from the production process. Fortunately, upon inspection, the air pocket does seem to be consistent enough for consistent shooting. That is to say, true to the sights after calibrating one's replica.

    The pellets, like all other 0.12's I've tested, do explode or shatter after taking a strong enough blow. Please keep that in mind if you want to use them on a field, or could hit a hard surface while target shooting.

  2. Thank you for stopping by.

    This thread is dedicated to preserving various information, photographs and scans about Airsoft Accessories. The scope of this thread will cover a broad range of items, including optics, targets, tools, and especially, BBs and their containers.

    The purpose of this thread, is to preserve the legacies of otherwise lost to time, or relatively known information about the aforementioned items. I hope to allow readers to enjoy this information for as long as possible, and will be backing up this information to increase its longevity and possibility to survive the tests of time.

    You can access my entire library on Dropbox. This link contains all the Airsoft scans, photographs, videos, and more. It's all the content I've taken so far. Latest revision dates of each folder will be marked. The link is provided below:

    I have actually. A review should at least have a bit of info on performance and how it handles rather than just copying what's printed on the box.

    Also if you look at the results of the polls you put up with them you'll see I'm not the only one who thinks this way

    It's unfortunate, again, however, despite my rocky start, I will be sure to press onward. I'm confident that I'll only improve with time.

    What a pile of absolute drivel. You haven't provided any guides or reviews, just scanned and uploaded the booklet for some *suitcase* springers that nobody is interested in hoping it'll get you attention and make a name for yourself. At least have the decency to be honest about why you're doing it

    You haven't read my newer posts, then, have you?

    At any rate, it's unfortunate that you're not enjoying my content. Terribly sorry to hear that. : (

  5.  Sure, I'd certainly like my work to be appreciated by even just one person. That being said, it's not my focus, rather, is my passion for these airsoft. That's why I've built these threads.

    When I was younger, there weren't always, and in some cases, still aren't guides or reviews for the guns I like. Even if there are, I'm confident that my own style, and the cracks that I fill, will be valued by many. 

    If that makes me a wannabe airsoft celebrity, then that's alright.

    OK, so they're basically different variants of the same gun

    Yes, and there are official different names for both variants. Since it's an M9, and not a 92FS, which is why I pointed that out. It's like naming a Colt 603 with "Colt 604", that's to say, though they may appear to be the same, they have differences in schematic. 

  7. WELL-Rifle-Spring-M16A4-Box-Front.jpg

    WELL-Rifle-Spring-M16A4-Completed-01.jpg


    WELL "M16A4" (874876016140, Black.) Spring operated 6mm, .24 inch caliber rifle. Known finishes are complete black.

    Manufactured by: Well, and made in China.

    Claimed features: 220 fps, 67 m/s with .20 gram pellets. Magazine Capacity: 200 rounds. High capacity "shake-loading" magazine. Can function as a low-capacity magazine if desired. Hop-up: Adjustable.

    Build materials and trademarks: ABS plastic externals, ABS plastic internals, zinc-alloy inner barrel. ABS plastic magazine. May have no trademarks, or "WELL 16-A AIR PISTOL SERIES" and a serial number on the left side. "Made In China" on the right side. Box contents: Operation Manual, warning, WELL M16A4 Spring-cocking Rifle, one magazine, sample package of .12 gram pellets, four AA batteries, imitation KAC vertical grip, phillips head screwdriver, sling, adjustable stock, AN/PAQ-4C flashlight.

    Notes/Discrepancies: HOP UP IS FIXED. Clone of a non-Marui system. Possibly HFC, or UHC's NeonFire. Can not use Tokyo Marui, Crosman (especially odd), or Panther Arms/DPMS magazines for spring-cocking AR-15 models. Fixed AR-15 post at the front, and two M16A2 sights at the rear with only one being up at a time. Rear sight is adjustable by moving the two different rear sights up, but only two different elevation levels can be used. That is to say, there are two different apertures, with their own heights (one is taller than the other). Trigger pull is a bit tough, but not too long in distance. Estimated price 30-40$ without, or without shipping costs. Working safety, left side, lever. Humorously, the "semi" and "full" positions are both marked with "fire". Incorrect barrel length, inappropriate M203 cutouts on the barrel. Continued on next paragraph:

    Handguards can be changed out for different carbine-length ones from different models. Rails have difficulty fitting other attachments, and may, or may not be compatible. Interchange compatibility applies to the rifle-length models. The stock can be removed, and the slot is compatible with a wide variety of WELL AR-15 models, even of different power plants. (Electric, spring, etc.) Fits a real USGI M9 bayonet with ease, though the barrel on this model is too short to attach the barrel ring. Could be possible to fully install on models with a longer barrel. Appears to fit the quadrant sight for sighting an M203, but cannot confirm due to absence of locking plate. Fits the NT-4 suppressor with only minor filing needed to the rings on the A1 muzzle device.

    This thread is dedicated to preserving various information about airsoft replica, (non-sniper) rifles. It contains paperwork, brochures, performance statistics, images and more information about the replicas contained here. There is no specific brand that this thread focuses on, but rather mostly on the spring rifles of old. The purpose of this thread, is to preserve the legacies of otherwise lost to time, or relatively known information about the aforementioned items. I hope to allow readers to enjoy this information for as long as possible, and will be backing up this information to increase its longevity and possibility to survive the tests of time.

    I hope you find this thread entertaining, and useful!

  9. An exceptionally awful find from Cybergun, circa 2006. It's the "ALL The SOFT AIR In One CD - THE ULTIMATE IN SOFT AIR"!

    20200125_172123.jpg

    Contains horrifically outdated and damaging information, outright lies, and plagiarism. Still makes for a great laugh, and reference for many older replicas. There's images, videos, and web-links inside, it's actually a lot of entertaining content. My favorite is the video where they show you how to get one of their Ultrasonic .12 gram pellets out of a KWC M9's inner barrel with a drinking straw!

    You'll love this one!

    That's because the Beretta 92FS and the M9 are the same pistol. M9 is just what the US military call it.  

    Do you have boxes for anything other than crappy market place springers?

    It's actually not.

    The issue is this stuff is not interesting.  It is not noteworthy at all.  

    Unfortunately, I find the polar-opposite point agreeable. If you're just going to continue to demean or otherwise insult the memorabilia in this thread with subjective opinions, then there are other threads that you may find interesting on this forum. You may want to read those instead.

    These are not box art, but the clamshell packaging is reasonable to be considered a box.

    There are people who have, and may continue to find it valuable. Clearly this topic isn't targeted for you. If you don't like Cybergun's historic, and previously vague information, that's OK.

    A suggestion, if you have more examples of those items you find of interest, it's time to "pull the trigger" and get them out there.

    If you own any of these replicas, how about a comparison of that replica to what was advertised on the box art. How did it or did not, hold up to the  promise of the packaging.

    I believe this is a learning process. I myself have to get off my butt and learn how to put pictures of my collection on line here as well (I'm really really old and dont have these skills yet-lol).

    I have TONS of airsoft things that need to be scanned. I'm procrastinating to hell and back. You're idea is fantastic, an excellent component for a review. Thanks~
