I respectfully disagree...

Depends on what class of laser, however. Also, green lasers are much more powerful, and will cause eye damage (so will some red lasers). Yes, you won't go blind instantly, but the lasers will cause some damage. I for one, like the fact that lasers are banned at most, if not all, places.

A red laser is pretty much useless for outdoor games, anyhow.

The only airsoft silencer I've seen that's effective at suppressing sound is a TM Socom Mk23 NBB. It doesn't muffle it entirely, but when one is firing it and has a hard time hearing it themselves, it is safe to say that it works well.

But I'll agree that attaching a sound suppressor to an AEG and expecting it to be quieter is an exercise in futility. Gearboxes are just too loud.

Class III's (which are near-unavailable to the general public) are the only ones with any real dangers. Class I and II's are very safe, it's actually more dangerous to look at the sun for a split second then getting beamed by either type of the two classes of lasers.

For suppressor, it really does have effect!
The main reason is this it abosrbs the higher frequency sounds. Human ears less sensitive to lower frequency sound than higher frequency sound.
My AUG mod with KM suppressor is almost inauditable to my opponents. (yet i heard really noisy gearbox sound, as my face and ear is next to the gearbox.)

Again, if you want to start a thread on something that has no bearing on the original subject, please start your own thread.

Kevin, start your own thread.
You obviously have not read this one... It's about the basics, not about individual questions.
Thanks.

the marui origional parts work fine
the gears, piston and cylinder are well designed...and the material is strong enough
all u 've to change are the spring guide and bushings.
the metal cylinder head and pistol are harmful to yr gearbox.
I am a HK airsoft player, nice to meet u

You obviously posted in this thread without reading it. This is not an opinion poll, and what you said has been said already.
Welcome to ASC, read a lot before posting some more, and remember our laws are far different than Hong Kong's.

Feel free to start a thread of your own instead of adding un-necessary things to this one. A moderator was kind enough to clean it twice lately...

So everyone? Please read before typing?

What do you mean by "would be good"?. Are you after a certain FPS?
