O.K. I built my first machine gun. $12 in parts without the blow gun, and 2 hours to build and start spraying. My problems is that it goes through a thousand rounds in about 25 seconds. Does anyone have a good supplier of 6mm ammo? Thanks.

Buy cheap Crosman BBs or get a job at an indoor CQB (close quarters battle) airsoft arena or go to one and just ask if you can sweep some BBs off the floor and keep them :lol: .

That would be a rip. I get pro quality .28 grams in 10,000 round buckets for $10.

That works too but only in a cloud, bb airsoft grenades, or a vortex. Don't reuse them in a real airsoft gun. Sometimes they jam and ruin the gun. I once ruined a $100 AEG doing that :( .

I can't reuse old ones, 3/4 of them split or completley shatter :D I found a site where I might be able to get 100,000 for $63 with shipping. Waiting for them to email me back.

I am using .12 . I have found them at $63 per 100,000. Does anyone know where to get them cheaper? 100,000 won't last an hour :D

pfft i would do that 100,000 for 63 bucks but thats like 120 over here in australia

you know those things on a string that you hang up on your x-mas tree, they are little balls on a string? I bought 27m of that stuff for $2 and theres about 1000 a metre

one problem, its a pain in the ass trying to get them all off the string
