Gigueand Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 Sorry to make you work, Harry. I just took a gander at the Marushin M500 review, and am quite impressed. I'd definitely invest in this RSOV shotty if it proves to be a decent clone... I know (from the review) that the Marushin can run green or propane... Hopefully this shotty will be capable of doing this as well (I can't think of a reason why it wouldn't since te two gases are basically the same). Is there are way to connect a coiled remote hose (like a classic gun) and get the gun to run off of a coleman bottle of propane? Link to post Share on other sites

Hustie Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 Is there are way to connect a coiled remote hose (like a classic gun) and get the gun to run off of a coleman bottle of propane? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Since the gas is internal I'm sure it would be a simple matter of drilling and tapping a hole then using whatever fittings nessecary to connect it to a propane tank (like the bits from a propane torch). Me thinks I would much rather prefer regulated CO2, more adjustable and somesuch. Link to post Share on other sites
BakaBox Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 Are there any pistol grips available for the Marushin one? -Afaik real ones won't fit. Or would I just have so cut of the stock and sand the remaining "grip"? Link to post Share on other sites
supportgunner Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 Has it been chronoed on propane/green gas? To use it at my site, it has to shoot under 300 FPS on .34s or .36s (400 with .20s). Link to post Share on other sites

I'll gladly buy these mythical Unicorn-dropping projectiles, the gun, and promptly report back to you! Link to post Share on other sites
supportgunner Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 I didn't know there weren't .36g 8MM bbs, and the .20g was just for reference. Link to post Share on other sites

charlieboy69 Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 as people said before, 8 mills are pricey BUT rsov do there own, i bought ~3000 ish for, i dunno, not very much (<£20)and they are awesome quality and id say a 1/4 of the price from UK. So yeh. buy 'em from rsov for like almost nothing Link to post Share on other sites
[--SC(+)PE--] Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 Can anyone tell me if these fire below 1 joule? it seems it would probably fire below 1 joule when 3 bb's are fired but over it when only one is fired , I dont know which way it should be measured. Were stuck with a strict 1 joule limit for all guns here in Ireland. Link to post Share on other sites
MDK_Marshal Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 Good GOD I need one of these. When the VCRA stuff all gets sorted and the database is up and running properly, I'm gona buy one, no matter what. Full metal 8mm Shotty. Gas powered. Cheap. Winsome. Also, if the shipping stuff on RSOV is right (and it probably is) then it's gona be about £90 posted to the UK. Words simply cannot express how much I NEED on of these!

Jrg Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 Great news! but 3 bbs per shot is the max? Link to post Share on other sites
chas Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 It fires a lot over 1 Joule. Force is mass X velocity, so it doesnt matter wether the velocity drops if the mass grows. Being hit by a car at 50 mph is as bad as being hit by 3 cars at 30 mph. I dont think any site will say: "Its not permited to have one BB at 400 FPS, but its cool to be hit by 3 BBs at only 300 FPS!" FPS limits and the compliance to them by any gun are meassured (usually) with one .20 BB with the hop up down. Thats it. Link to post Share on other sites

RSOV's 8mm bbs are .48gs. The FPS using green gas and 1 .34g bb fired from the reissued M500 was chronoed at just over 500. High 200/low 300 with 3 bbs. Link to post Share on other sites

T3CH Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 I actually like the silver finish, usable for a 'gangster' loadout in a scenario, or just posing value I REALLY hope it sounds as good as the Tanaka trench gun does when it's cocked, that lovely 'chuck-chick' noise always makes me grin Link to post Share on other sites
