Hehe, for a combat gun? I wouldn't choose any of the revolvers. The power of the chief special on green is like an average GBB on 134a. The M500, on the other hand, has been reported to be very accurate and powerful, but I have never shot one of those.

Not really.

I think the 226 doesn't have this problem because the firing pin doesn't intrude as much as that on the USP. Just tested them both, and confirmed that the P226 will fire, but the USP will not in this case.

Did you lower the hammer by using the decocking lever? If so, of course it would fire. Try the following steps: 1. take out the mag. 2. pull trigger to dry fire once. 3. insert the mag. 4. pull the hammer back without moving the slide. 5. pull trigger. What happens now? Of course there's a way around this: never dry fire your gun when the mag is out.

You mean try to crash the server in new ways? Good work, Ivery and whoever else is involved in fixing the problems!

Viewing the forum index seemed to work find too. Just couldn't open any thread.

Same here, hope this'll help finding and fixing the problem.

Moved to reader's review section.

That is very true. But the down slope trend was since January.

You are not alone. The other day, I got a new type of error instead of the usual too many connections. Any ideas? The interesting thing is that the site traffic monitored by Invision seems to have been sharply decreasing. Why is the site still doing worse? This site has handled more traffic better before. http://www.sitemeter.com/?a=stats&s=sm5arniesairsoft&r=36

There has been an increasing number of duplicate threads and/or posts lately. I know a lot of them were not made intentionally, but made due to server's instability. I am sorry for the current state our server is in, and I have no idea what is going on, but I sincerely urge everyone to bear with it, and if when you post a new post or thread, the page seems to be frozen, please do not re-click the post button again, and in fact, do not even try to refresh the page after you have click the post button once. The best course of action is to go do something else and come back in a few minu

Heh, I guess you weren't issued a hydration pack? I guess this is just issued to the soliders, but nobody actually uses it, and they all go buy their own gear?

Good ol LBV. Do people still use this?

Heh, seems there's always exceptions. And yes, if you can get hold of a fancy flash, be my guest. I was referring to the built-in flash on regular consumer-level cameras, which was also what Static meant in his post, I believe. As for photoshops, it can certainly enhance a good picture, but it can't save a bad one. If one thinks that he'd always be able to photoshop whatever photos he takes, and becomes careless with the basic settings of light and focus and so on when taking the photos, he's not going to achieve greatness. (If one's really good, he can even generate a picture in co

I don't believe in photoshop, and I don't do anything besides resize my photos when they are too big for posting online and cut out extra parts when necessary. But yea, I forgot to emphasize: NO FLASH.

0. Have the will to take good photos. 1. Get a decent camera (not necessarily a $1000 one, but at least one with good lens and some manual control settings) 2. Light is the key. Try to have as much light source as possible. Sun light usually works well with most auto settings on most cameras. When use flourescent lights, try to set your camera's setting accordingly. 3. If you must take photos under insufficient light (and that doesn't even mean darkness, a lot of what you may consider "well-lit" rooms are not really good enough for cameras.) Use a tripod or some stationary s

Your eyes deceived you. It is the M60 Chief's Special, but if you were refering to Redhawk's picture, then yes, that's an M65. Review has finally been uploaded, and here are some comparison shots as promised.

Yes, sir. And I have .25g, but no heavier. Yep, although the DA pull is quite heavy, but it is silky smooth.

Ah, I don't have it yet, but I will certainly take some comparison pictures, and write up the full review in the next few days. For now, the initial impression: the finish is excellent. the power seems to be low on the springer level (with 134a). range is 15 feet (20 max again with 134a, and after 20 feet, the .2g BB will curve left and right). Weight is documented at a miserable 350g, lower than a $20 heavy weight springer, but I guarantee you that the feel and built is miles and miles ahead of any springer there is. cylinder holds 10 (the real steel is a five shooter, not six,

As long as you don't expect much power or range. The fake wood does indeed look pretty real. And the stainless finish is just beautiful. I have real trouble convincing myself that the gun is made of plastic.

Hehe, how's this? You perfectionist.

Shouldn't it be vertical when the barrel of the gun is level? Right now, the medallion is vertical, but the grip is at an angle. If I make the "S" point toward the base of the grip, the medallion will be slanted.
