Airsoft to nerf just isn't right, and it isn't useful.

Why thank you kind sir.

Someone agrees with me.

Yay.

After ripping apart my cheapo AEG, the plunger had a less than half inch diameter and was 2 inches long. If you chop of the barrel and everything, you'll get bad ranges out of an airsoft gun. It probably cost the same as a SNAP anyway. Go for one of those or something better.

Bomberman, Airsoft guns fire bbs. He made it so it can fire darts. I wanted to know how many feet per second it went when you fire bbs.
slowguitarman, People don't buy TMs because there are clones of them that work just the same and have a fourth of the price such as Jing Gong, a few CYMA yes CYMA, some UTGs, and even some Wells. I got a Well MP5 Tokyo Marui clone for 65 bucks, not 250.

Ok. Show me a clone of a Tokyo Marui Thompson and then we'll talk, and if you want to get technical, all airsoft guns work the same. I can't say about the quality, though, because I don't have anything other than my thompson AEG. I don't buy cheap junk, and even if I wanted to, I wouldn't be able to buy a cheap thompson. The only other ones I can even find are all springer garbage.

Not true. CO2 and spring.

I can't show you a Thompson clone AEG, but I can show you a full wood and steel version for around 800 dollars. Its sick I was looking at it today. They also have Lugers now, and Kar98K's. I've also seen Longshots with Gear Boxes in 'em that shoot BB's. Its pretty cool looking. Who ever did it has an LCD read out for his ammo.
Off-Topic even more: My friend came over today and brought his MP5SD6 with him. That fucker is loud as hell. I put about 1000 BB's into my trap today with just his MP5 alone. He also gave me a can of Green Gas for my M9.

ZaphodB: Spring guns for Airsoft think NERF but the plunger is scaled way down. And Co2 uses a pin that opens a valve and diverts the gas or Co2 to a chamber which shoots the BB (and if your Airsoft pistol has it) drives a spring back wards creating a blow back effect.

I know how they work. I was saying that there wasn't just one mechanism for airsoft guns. There's at least two, plunger and co2, and maybe flywheel, I'm not sure how the cheapie mini autos work.

[Kash munni]

Zaphod, there are no flywheel airsoft guns. Gas, spring, and electric (same method as spring, just automatic) are the three airsoft mechanisms.

I mean with AEGs. All AEG airsoft guns work basically the same, but they have lots of variation in quality. If you want to get technical like that, most gas guns use propane, not CO2.

At kash munni: That link doesn't work.

As for the thompson, I have seen the full metal one with wood, but $800 is too much. The TM version comes mostly metal when it's stock, and it was $225 for the wood stuff last time I checked it. I think I'll stick with mine, though. I'd rather not risk ruining that expensive wood, and the fake wood looks fine to me. I already have it where it counts: 465fps at about 800rpm.

At spartan_117: I didn't mean to sound like a jerk if I did. I just have yet to see any other Thompson AEG, and I have never used any TM clones that are as high quality as TM.
