yea, you can get shot with those "sniper rifle" airsoft guns(like 1050 fps) and it will only break the skin

Yep. 450 FPS on an airsoft gun isn't all that much.

Are you joking?? That would mess you up so bad. I don't think you realize how fast 1050 fps is.

arent really bullets only shot at like 600fps?

and how is airsoft a waste. i think that speedball is awesome but paintball isnt much good for woodball or scenario. airsoft is far better for a more milsim style. there are many advantages to both.

1050 fps is very close to mach 1, which will most
likely penetrate most of the way through a person.
most airsoft fields have a hard cap at 500 fps


As with paintball vs. airsoft fps, a paintball at 300 fps
has WAY more muzzle energy that a airsoft bb at 450
fps.

Compare being hit with a brick at 50 mph and a
raindrop at 60 mph.

wow,, guess the 600fps estimate was kinda, umm,,, really wrong. mabey thats just for a slug gun or something.

anyways,, most airsoft fields,, (not that i go to fields,, u just find a old factory) have a limit of 500fps so 450 isnt that bad.
