Bio BBs

Subject: Bio BBs Wed Mar 26, 2008 8:08 pm

So, my team recently played at a course that required Biodegradable BBs. Right off the bat we had a problem considering we had to pay ~$18 for a bag of airsoft elite bio bbs from airsoftsmith. ADMIN wound up being the only one to use them. He used them in his recently purchased CA8 and instant jam!!!! I don't think I will ever put these in my good guns... mabye a springer, but no guns that I would want to keep in good working order. The four of us that went up to play were very discouraged.

yea, i think that is a really lousy course if they require Bios. i mean, i can understand their reasons for not wanting a ton of BBs all over, but that is kindof stupid. BBs dont hurt anyone do they?

actually it is an environmental concern. The owner expressed that he regreted this decision. They were required to use them or not play outside at all. The main point of this was about the BBs themselves

thats too bad that you jammed with those BB's. ill watch next time when they are in my guns, but ive never jammed with the M4 or the M9. thats really weird.

PS: how was your conquest trip?

yeah, it was fun.... but not something I see us doing in the future. I personally spent >$50. I would rather stick around here. I would love to think my outside course is at least par with theirs.

I thought I'd come out of hiding to respond. Sorry I haven't been talking much on here lately, as I've been as close to death as ever with a fever. The bio BBs were terrible. I put the Airsoft Elite .2g precision Bios in my gun and they jammed every time. They were nasty jams too - very hard to get out as the BBs were so fragile, a ton of them would slide down my barrel and then decide to start jamming my gun. Before I knew it there were 15 BBs jammed in my gun, impossible to unjam without taking apart my gun every time. It was a pain to say the least. For lower end guns they should work OK, but you won't find me using them anymore. I'd rather just not play then have to play with those again.

The owner was required (legally) to enforce the Biodegradable BBs because his field was over some protected water shed, or something like that (I wasn't really listening - I was too angry I had to buy more BBs). Anyway, that's fine for those willing to use Bios, it's just simply not for me.

EDIT: Oh, and Sticks, the Conquest trip overall was pretty cool for me. Sure it cost a lot of money and I won't be doing it again for a while, but it was still worth it to me. The outside field was rather crappy (not including the Bio bbs part), but the indoor field was great. Could've used better lighting, but the setup was cool, and the factory was huge! I had a lot of fun using Roamer's TM SPAS 12. It was the perfect indoor course for a shotgun Smile

They make them bio friendly so like in a couple weeks they'll just disintegrate i think the word might be.

I think that bio bbs could have an positive effect on the enviorment but why do some fields only allow you to use bio bbs .
