Hang fire can be a problem, and is an astounding reason to buy quality ammo. Had some off brand 9mm (Russian) that had 2 hang-fires out of 25 rounds. When it happens you have to just stand there for a long time pointing the weapon down-range waiting for the BANG, or lay it on the bench with a sandbag on it. When it does go off, you can wet yerself.
Ah yes one of my fav history moments involving Air Rifles.
Great bit of Air rifle coolness in that paragraph

hmm
This has something to do w hangfire....I live near a CW battlefield, the reenactors where test charging the field cannons...one of them had a failure because of the fuse but went off a few seconds later
Got some bigger mags comming
does any one shoot with one eye closed or are you not supposed to do that
i do
i can't aim without one eye closed but my dad say you should have both eyes open
nice to know that there are others
If im aiming down sights on say a rifle, i have both open to look for target and close one to take the shot
^ye about the same here. I typically use irons so I prefer one-eye aiming for precise shots, but otherwise I run two eye-open for better SA.
The exception is eotechs. I try to use two eyes regardless with eotechs.
For some reason, whether its for irl target shooting, or in videogames, i get extreme tunnel vision when zeroing on a target, and my friends have no qualms about screwing with me when it happens
interesting. I think I used to get like that, but what I started playing airsoft I made myself quite that shit because I wasn't noticing people in my peripheral.
never happened in vgs tho.
Also, it depends on light. Low light 2 eyes open is better
the most memorable incident so far was when i was lying still in an airsoft match for several minutes trying to find the twat in a ghillie suit and sniper rifle picking us off from spawn, and my friend left a miniature pumpkin on my head which i didn't notice until i moved around 20 seconds later
That's usually me in the leafy suit w sniper.. I try not to spawn camp
*hears noise*
*procedes to let off a 30 round burst into the darkness*
^relateable
airsoft be like tho
Bois, i have noticed something about my airsoft AK that makes me sad
no third hole?
the Charging handle doesn't go all the way back
oh rip
no it has a third hole
my airsoft mk18 used to be the same way, but I forgot that and ripped on the charging handle. It broke and came all the way out :/ xD
also, speaking of AKs, remember that video by brandon herrera on the Krink Kit from hell?
