You know it must be good when.......

Uh why does it matter? But feel free to continue bashing your head against the wall, I quite enjoy the imagery...

It matters because we're not 15 year old airsofters sitting in our mom's basement. (well... at least I'm not.)

They're not "real steel" they're firearms.

Incidentally... my XD is partially tupperware. Should I call it "real plastic/steel" or is there a more appropriate "airsofter" term?
 
I have a real KX3 sitting here waiting for my upper to arrive... although they do look very similar, there are some very subtle differences. However, if I didn't have a real one to compare with, it would be easy to assume the "fake" one was real.

Edited to add:

The differences are,
1. The spring on the real KX3 is reversed from the one you see in the fake pic (it goes in the opposite direction).
2. The spring indentation in the body of the real KX3 is almost parallel to the logo and text (it doesn't cut through it).
3. The Noveske company logo is placed higher up on the real KX3, not perfectly centered with the text as it is in the fake photo.

I only have the real KX3 (not the airsoft one), but I am going to assume they are identical. The inside on my KX3 is just a funnel shaped piece of steel with threads on it :)
 
I bet you the fake one weighs less (tin etc), if someone knows the weights that would be a good quick definitive test.

Well either you shop at reputable dealers or you take your chances...I doubt anybody could tell the difference from a quick online photo if you were buying a real one vs. the fake.

Maybe putting pig cans on toys increases your cool factor and lessens your chances of nerd gang rape if your side looses at an airsoft get together?

I believe nerd gang rape is what you get if you win at airsoft...

This airsoft debate is getting really retarded. I will personally kick ass if this is going to recur EVER again. I will get the mod to use the s**t disturber rule if I have to. This means you DMeNTED!!! I am putting this into the mod group and will be enforced.

:confused:

So, just so I'm clear. Its ok if other people make wisecracks about a game, and its ok if people violate board rules with personal insults, but its not ok if I make fun of airsoft?

Well... I guess that makes sense.

And oh by the way....many people use the term "real steel" to differentiate between airsoft and real fireams when discussing the two together.

You can call your tupperware whatever you want. It's called free speech.

By the way...hows the application to the CF Reserves going?

Sorry... I'm not allowed to discuss airsoft.

And I only discuss my personal life with people I care to share with...
