As to lemons, you could just say "most Y&P and all CYMA"

Other than that I agree with what you say... I also like the HFC MP5. While it doesn't have quite the range of the UHC SD3, it has the pump, and 40 rd mag. I haven't had any problems with it, and it shoots great.

Yeah, I like my HFC MP5. I'm glad to hear about alot of those being on there! Most of 'em I have, or are in the mail, or I'm planning on getting. Also, I don't think the HFC p99 should be with the "lemons", I like mine, it's got great accuracy. But It is your opinion, so whatever!

I'm just wondering if that's in any special order like best to worst. And also, which KWC 1911? KWC makes like 500 different 1911 pistols, so could you specify which one you're talking about?

Magus- To be honest about every KWC pistol I've tried has worked well.

Snake- My friend's p99 works great but mine broke: 1. When I tried to use the safety. I returned it. 2. When I dropped it onto a sofa.
It's just my opinion here. But when I fired it it had good accuracy.

The HFC P99 definately shouldnt be on lemons...There are some bad batches, my 1st one was but i returned it the next day and got a new one (from shortyusa) it's been shooting like a dream. at 30 feet i am getting a 2 inch dead center group from the whole mag.

if your acuraccy is bad try using .2g bbs instead of the .12g it suggests. range is decreased but accuracy increades it doesnt really matter anyways since pistol range isnt all that far.

and as for HFCs MP5, it has decent accuracy and power, you get what you pay for...good entry level gun.

THe point is that he got a lemon. He didn't say that everyone who buys an HFC P99 will get one...

Dang, i got a P99 from HFC, it was great powerful,strong,good looks, the only problem was it didn't have the real indicator.


I've heard alot of bad things about the UHC Super 9, but i think those were AEg players. Are the super 9's good for springer wars, cuz i really want to buy one, but every1 tells me 2 buy and aps-2 but i dont wanna fork over 400 dollars

The super 9 sucks if your playing with AEG's but if your playing a pistol/springer match its pretty good! This guy i know shot my friends glasses and one of the lenses poped out. he was about 60-70 ft. away. I really liked the super 9 to mess around with. its pretty fun to play with. if u do get a super 9 theres a couple things to watch out for. 1. the gun jams alot. 2. sometimes when you pull the bolt back it just shoots foward and doesnt stay.

He was shooting at someone's face when he wasn't wearing protection!? That doesn't sound very smart! ......Unless he wasn't actually wearing the glasses......

for that matter, headshots are a no no... always aim for something other than the head, and if the head is all that is exposed... wait.

yeah some of the people i play with are crazy! they dont play with masks!(one person i know got shot in the eye a bunch of times fortunately he blinked every time he got shot plus there was no damage to his eyes.) but the guy i was talking about earlier he thinks that since he wears glasses that he is protected enough to play. We warn him but its really his choice to make.

I have a Y&P P-99 andn it rocks!!! This may just be mine but it hits hard and hurts for ages. It hasn't broken in nearly 2 years and it is really accurrate, too!!!!:cool: :cool:

UHC M9 all the way. It has good range for a pistol, is accurate, and shoots hard. Just use .2g bb's with it, not .12's.

Wow... you should really find a new group of people to play with. Friggin morons.

you cannot imagine how many time i have gotten shot in the face. with an 400FPS AEG got 5 bbs hit from my chin, teeth, nose, and eyes but luckily i was wearing some goggles (well not really goggles but shatter proof glasses that go around the eye and so bbs can't sneak up there).

a guy i kow was playing with just spring pistols and got shot in the eye just cuz his goggles fogged up and he was searching for bbs on the ground. he had to go see the doctor and wear an eye patch for awhile.

seriously just get some ski goggles (it's only sping guns their talking about, not AEGs) or PB masks.

we never wear masks, glasses, protectiveness, etc. like the first game i played i wore some shop class glasses, but they fogged upa nd i said f it. ive bene shot in the face countless times, ears, chin, nose. its not that bad. hell, my friend has bene shot in the eye at least 5 times and hes fine

Jimny, You are a f**king moron for not playing with goggles. Someone you play with is gonna get there eye shot out, and whoever shot his eye out is gonna get sued, and he'll be getting sued for a ton of money. Just play it safe and get some goggles. If you don't, youre a F**king moron.

but htey always fog up and i can never see

You have to ask yourself would you rather deal with not being able to see too well during a game or deal with not being able to see too well for your entire life?

JiminyJam

good point, i found some wiremesh masks at airsoft atlanta, so i might get one of those

Night_Stalker

Would you risk convenience (no fog) over eyesight? I suggest you just get a paintball mask and use anti fog wipes or something.

JiminyJam
11-30-2003, 08:00 PM
would those wire mesh masks be good? it says mo fog on it

Night_Stalker
11-30-2003, 08:03 PM
I wouldn't get them. First off, if you're looking for any type of dust or dirt protection, forget it. Think, they are called WIRE MESH. Key word MESH. And, if you plan to use them in the long term (with AEG's) dont get them, the wire COULD splinter when it is shot at, and that could blind you. Don't risk it, just get a paintball mask, and use anti fog wipes with it.

hey i've been using my wire mesh goggles for 6 months now and my group has even TESTed it up close with a 400FPS gun and all it got was a dent. sometimes i switch off with shatter proof raquetball goggles. my mask has not kill my eyesight yet.

and that guy i was talking about who got his eye shot. he was playing with his friends. he ain't my friend. hell, i don't even know what his last name is. and it was an accident he said. so night stalker, keep it down man, keep it down.

and yet i might buy one of them 50$ fog resistant tactical goggles. or maybe them guarder glasses (they can withstand 12-gauge shell point blank).

you cannot imagine how many times i've been shot at the eyes. i'm sorry but i trust my wire mesh.

Kendo- I didn't even read your posts. I just heard stories about wire mesh goggles not being 100% safe.

what kind of example are we setting? when i first started airsoft (just springers) i wore my friend's shopglasses, a bandanna around my mouth, and a baseball cap. of course, a bb managed to find the one weakspot and hit me from short range.Remember kids, wear your mask! unless you want to have people at school asking why you have a small welt in the middle of your forehead.

whoa sorry i didnt see there was a second page. well some of my friends have mesh masks and they work fine.

lol i had a hfc.. i think... im confoosed.. and it was pretty good.

neways which is better? HFC p99 or UHC p99?

Death-Head
12-02-2003, 02:28 PM
Well I don't the UHC makes a P99.

I think I'm going to pick up one of those Sansei masks. Do they fit over glasses? That way you could wear them underneath it so you wouldn't have to worry about shards of things.

To go along with what Night_Stalker put so eloquently... seriously... JiminyJam you are a waste of life in the airsoft world. You are only going to cause more problems for US, not to mention one of your guys losing an eye or becoming SERIOUSLY injured... You and your friends need to buy masks. Like someone stated earlier, just buy a cheap paintball mask and use that. 20 bucks is a good price for the insurance of your sight.

As for my favorite springer, I will also have to say ANYTHING KWC is high quality, especially the Ultra-Heavy Weight Desert Eagle.

hey calm down buddy, i ordered a wire mask from airsoftatlanta so u dont have to worry
