I put a lot of miles on mine when I was a kid! Ended up sawing off the stock for some stupid reason (guess I was going to try to make a folder of some kind?).

I'd say get airsoft over this.

I used to have a F/A uzi BB gun. It was super fun for a moment but it DEMOLISHED CO2 cartridges. You might as well buy a pallet of them for that thing.

I'm surprised no one here has mentioned the Larc M19 bb submachine gun......big plastic POS that ran off of cans of R12 Freon.......froze solid as a block of ice after a few good bursts....

I ordered the one back in the 80's that used freon cans. That joker was fun. There was a certain joy being able to let loose a firehose of bbt. This new one looks interesting. However instead of co2 how about a rechargeable battery?

Quoted:
As fucked up as NFA and Hughes had rendered the MG market, and people’s infatuation with shooting machineguns, I’m really surprised pneumatic full-auto isn’t more of a thing.

I think a well-made, reliable select-fire airgun would be market-viable at as much as 3-5 hundred bucks.

Connecticut would declare it to be a firearm.

Mine has been just fine. I've only run 700 - 800 rounds through it so far.

@wayward_texan had a problem with his that he was able to repair without too much trouble.

I haven't had any issues with it leaking CO2. I leave it loaded so I can harass the tree rats with it, and so far every time I've put it up with loaded CO2 cylinders it has fired without incident days or weeks later.

Ive had mine for about 6 months now and have gone thru a 2500 count bottle of BBs. 100% reliable so far. I get about 7 mags worth of CO2 before its time to swap em out. I need to order a couple more mags now that they are available

Hopefully it’s better than the full auto Umarex Steel Storm I bought my son a few years ago for his birthday. Made it through roughly 200 bb’s and it quit working, sent it back to Pyramid Air and gave up on full auto B.B. guns. The Russian Baikal Drozd is the one to get but no longer imported.

I've got a Steel Storm and a Co2 canister setup. It works flawlessly.

Shoot it with my 10 year old daughter. It is outrageous fun on full auto.

Any reason why BB guns can't be run off a lipo battery pack like airsoft?

I just hated CO2 guns growing. Leaked, constantly swapping out new canisters after 50-100 rounds, inconsistent performance due to weather/other factors, etc..

Using a battery pack is so much better in every aspect...and you can recharge instead of constantly burning through cartridges.

Figured a lipo batter would have plenty of juice to power a piston/fire a bb.

It isn’t airsoft. It may not meet the legal definition but it’s less lethal at best.

Along with the 357 CO2 revolver with 4, 6, and 8" barrels.

I also have a Daisy Beretta 92 CO2 pistol.

There also is a Crossman Target 38 that needs a part (help wanted)

I have had the sickness since I was 12 or so.
