Clearsoft ain't that bad...

[ColtFarmer]

Mine's a Marksman 1950. found it at walmart, it's out of production now. it's now the "Liqour Store Special"

[Lakonian]

I wouldn't mind getting one. But, I'd effin' reinforce the hell outta the body.

im having a good run using clear co2 pistols,,this is my second one now.

before paint,,



after paint,,



im so impressed with this $80.00 dollar weapon that i have no desires to own a gas hog gbb anytime soon.


"clearsoft" kills worth talking about include:

2 - systema rifleman

1 - m60 sawgunner ( plus took him hostage )

yea but dont those co2 pistols leak the whole time?
i had a co2 pistol bb gun and it leaked the entire time a co2 cartridge was in it. just a steady low hiss down the barrel
oh and another thing about clearsoft. i dont think the clear plastic is as sturdy as the black kind is. ive noticed that clear plastic is more prone to shattering

Seems like those c02 guns are non blow back, and the internals are metal and absorb all the force. The plastic shell on the outside is simply just for looks I guess.

Hahhaha, I gotta admit, it's coming along. I've got some of those with metal slides in the Classifieds, they're definitely fairly hard-hitters.

Been there, done that.. got a few laughs and a couple kills, at the end of the day its not worth the added weight and akwardness.

[Dusti69]

yea that does look dumb cuz it looks so much bigger than the main rifle. itd probly look a little better on an m16 than an m4. or like find a smaller shotgun to use and put it on a steyr aug or a famas or an xm8 or a long barreled g36

wow what could you guys do with this ugly thing? it looks like a made up gun

[ColtFarmer]

haha, CHECK THIS OUT!



All you need is a little paint grasshoppa.

It's a Beretta M12 9mm submachinegun BTW.

[Dusti69]

that actually looks decent. reminds me of an mp40 or a grease gun. how well does it shoot though?

[TokyoSeven]

Ive done the clear soft shotty Masterkey rig before, heavy hard to use but looked alright. Was kinda useful when you could just hold down the trigger and slam fire the mag instead of reloading the primary mag on the m4.

[Dusti69]

yea its like a backup built right onto your rifle if you dont have enough time to reload.
look i was gonna get one of these to mess with and paint but i dont think im gonna cuz i highly doubt it has a metal gearbox

and what the hell is even going on with this thing here????

[Shrapnel[Op-For]]

no, don't get either of those... Basically, it comes down to what role the clearsoft is trying to fill. The clear shotguns work pretty well because they do what they are meant to be, a cheap but fairly effective and reliable backup. Some co2 NBB aren't even that bad, and work well if you want a cheap sidearm. But once you walk into the clear AEG relm, mostly all of them are really, really bad, with the exception of the kracken.

[Dusti69]

yea you dont even have to tell me that. i posted that cuz its crazy looking.
i was like ok so the battery is in the clip sooo.....uuummm.....where do the bbs go?
and you cant even tell it has a motor in it

i want to tackle a project like colts beretta because i can get that one on ebay for like a penny and only pay the 12 dollar shipping. that and cuz i already have a shotgun
whoa wait... if its a submachine gun why would they have it set up like a shotgun?

hundreds of rounds later i have NOT had a leaky mag to date. between co2 powerlette changes i use a little silicone oil in the mag to prevent leaks.
