first we had the blammo kill-marker, now we have the Verdict BB
The powder coated on the BBs can only come off if it hits something solid at over 60 fps... dunno about that, could the powder gum up the gears? -------------------- Medical College of Virginia School of Medicine Class of 2013

There is a chance it could mush up my / your hop, and therefore, not using them is the best bet.
Also, paintballers use bog standard overalls that are fine covered in paint and easily washable, I doubt many people will wan't their RRV / CIRAS / OUJAMAFLOP covered in painty powdery stuff. Personally I don't want to charge into a group of people, get hosed, and come out looking like a teenager whose been through one too many greasy pizzas'. Lets not make airsoft any more like painball.

RAF,
As with the Blammo Kill Markers, these are not paintballs, they are powder coated balls. However my reply is the same as with Blammo Kill Markers, I don't see a place for them in my hobby... or rather, I can, I just don't want them. --------------------   |

Also, picture this:
You get hosed, you are covered in loads of dust. You wipe it off quickly (is it even possible to wipe it off quickly?) because you are in a fast turnaround game. You miss a couple. You are accused of not taking hits (that genuinely didn't hit you). You are checked for dust. The dust is still there from an earlier hit, making you look like a cheater. No thanks. How easy is it to wipe off, it it a case of a stiff bristled brush? Soap and water? A wipe with your hand? If so what is to stop the existing cheating scumbags just wiping too? -------------------- Stunt

Exactly the problem with all of these bb's. If they wipe off with a hand, then the cheaters just wipe like paintball. If it takes more to get them off, then you have false accusations and ruined gear.

I'm prettty sure the feed nozzle in the gearbox will hit the bb at more than 60fps, so dust would find it's way into the GB/hop, no thanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I won't be buying anything like this anytime soon. Cheaters always find a way to cheat, they'll get around this too. if you are having cheating problems, find a better class of players to play with or just keep shooting.

If I wanted to have marking rounds I'd play paintball.
Why do people want to try to turn airsoft into paintball? LEAVE AIRSOFT ALONE YOU TWATS!!! I think the ONLY application these should EVER be used for is LE/MIL training. -------------------- Long Live the M14 Brotherhood!

Retarded ideas.
Cheaters will cheat regardless. This is not the way to do away with cheaters. Ostracizing the rat bastards and kicking them out of playing locations are the way to do away with cheaters. -------------------- Wasted__youf: "seriously, who *fruitcage* cares! Go get laid."

Agreed with all of the above, this product has no place in airsoft.
Airsoft works very well on the honor system and I certainly don't want my hundreds of dollars worth of gear pockmarked up with paint dust. I get *pizza*ed off enough when I get paintball paint on my gear from skirmishing on fields that paintballers had played on previously, no need to add insult to injury. And there's no way I can see the residue from these BBs not screwing up your hopup and/or gearbox with enough use. So yeah, a big "NO THANK YOU" to this product. -------------------- حَوّامتي مُمْتِلئة بِأَنْقَلَيْسون

i dont know how it would interfere with the mechbox, but the residue would definitely build up in the barrel and on the hop-up.

QUOTE (John Dee @ May 5 2009, 10:50 AM) I don't fancy getting a eye ball full of powder from my mesh mask with these. what happens if someone uses these, hits me, i get a mesh full of dust or my gear gets ruined, are they going to pay for replacements?? i think not, so idealy we all neeed these (aint going to happen) or none of us have these (also wont happen) soon sites will have to ban these or ban normal bb's (or at least ask people if they have them not to use them) so Yea NO THANKS!!! keep it for military training and away from mainstream airsoft This post has been edited by chownsy: May 5 2009, 10:04 AM -------------------- Please heal me!!!!!

Sounds like a good idea but i wouldnt use them i can see so many problems poping up, hop damage, dirt build up inside, ruined gear and if you get shot a shed load in your first game of the day and dont get it all off (if you can) go in to the second game and people say that youve been hit when its from a previous game and so on...

notice in the example they show the person wearing black.. because its easy to see
most of us are wearing DPM, multicam, Deserts and what not, its going to be pretty damn hard to see the dusty mark stick to my regular white balls of pain thanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) -------------------- Sig image limit is 400x100.
