Since we like all things projectile, I present the Crosman Pulse R71 Full or Semi-Automatic Airsoft Rifle.

It is based on the HKMP5:

The ATF has to be pissed at the tax revenue they are missing from this rifle to pistol conversion.

The upper furniture seems to be based on the Mako Versatile Forend Rail, but the handguards look more like an offering from Troy Industries.

The scope actually holds the ammo.

The magazine is actually a rechargeable battery. 3 hours to charge.

My only foray into airsoft was a beretta M9 knock off. Battery operated. It seized a few days after buying it. I will stick with my trusty red rider... :)

Although I have to admit, that thing looks fun. :clap:

:btw: Oh man, I just noticed you chrono'd the airsoft gun. You are gone. Where are the laughing emoticons? Well C, you will get this at least -- [rofl2] :)

I did the last one too! It keeps my skills sharp in case of squirrel invasion. :bigsmile: Link is below.

Gas blow back chairsoft is the best chairsoft. I love it when my toy gun shoots fire eveywhere when you hold a lighter up to it.

It occurred to us the other day, the pigeons and I, that we were at a stalemate. I could hear them cooing at me and my lack of tactically. So I took it up a notch.

Somewhere along the line by rifle broke, finding an FFL or a smith to work on it proved too difficult. I contacted the retail purchase point and after tense negotiations (I lost my receipt), we were able to reach a compromise and I exchanged my SBR for another SBR.


This is the TAC-R71:
