get your friend to ship some to you?

I'm sure Redwolf has some of them

I think it's Straight brand.

Straight makes 6mm 0.43g BBs, really aren't a lot of use in airsoft guns (even though I've used them for a half dozen games in my Glock 19), are more or less designed for knocking down steel plates at 100 yards in very high powered airsoft guns, a competition thing in Japan.

There are also 0.46g BBs in 8mm out there.

I used this several years ago in my M24. It dropped my range a lot, but the ballistic was awsome.

I quit using them because I need the range more than the precision. The trade off was not that bad, as .30 or .36 are still good enough.
