air powered BB machine gun

Working air powered BB machine gun & accessories - Rare - eBay (item 150263941519 end time Jul-03-08 08:36:26 PDT)

Says it is working. And it the type used at carnivals for that "Shoot the Red Star" BS. Now is a great chance to see if the sights are f-ed up! And since it "works", wonder how long it will last.

The trick is not to shoot the star, but to shoot a circle around the star, then the star itself just falls off.

That usually worked for me, though they were horrifically inaccurate. My theory was that the barrel itself was way overbored, and the BB's literally "bounced" down the barrel

Those things were filled with bulk recycled shot, so you had a pretty cruddy projectile.

I wouldnt mind having one on hand.

Ebay has gotten over anal about them lately. That is why there are a lot of pelletguns going up for sale there separate from the stocks or in parts. Ebay's decision to be antigun has been a finacial boon for gunbroker though.
