    I dont' think tactical strobes are allowed because of risk to epileptics

    I may be wrong here, but isn't that epileptics thing just a load that the anti-computer-games crowd threw out back in the '90s, which has been blown out of all proportion? I remember when they started putting warnings into the backs of manuals about playing in a well-lit room, taking a break every hour and so on, to appease the group that were afraid their kids might start spazzing out on Rainbow Road.

    Given that that was exactly the mentality that is now being directed at airsoft (and previously Dungeons & Dragons in the States, and so on) - I don't understand it so I don't like it so I'll concoct reasons why it's bad - I think we owe it to society to do a bit of research rather than going with the knee-jerk party line. I'm pretty sure I read somewhere reputable fairly recently that that form of epilepsy is extremely rare, and I think I remember reading back in the day that those who do suffer from it can have it brought on by looking at trees go by out the car window.

    I'd just hate to see rules brought in based on shoddy evidence.

    Why? Just why???
    So utterly pointless... Unless you want it for awesome semi-auto.
    But anyway,
    Good bearings,
    High speed gear set,
    Good shimming,
    Polycarbonate piston,
    Metal or polycarbonate piston head (bearing type),
    Reinforced tappet place,
    New cylinder hear maybe,
    Bearing spring guide,
    MOSFET,
    Guarder M120 motor.
    That's all I can think of, I'm sure someone will come along and say otherwise.


    I still think an 11.1V lipo is overkill...
    A strobe light is just gonna piss people off.

    well ill stick to what i have so.that sounds like to much work,and as for the strobe,it was just an idea i had for clearing rooms giving you the element of surprise and all that,im sure it would piss them off as much as if you used a flash bang on them.
