An AIRSOFT Rifle shoots plastic BBs. An Air rifleshoots steel BBs or lead pellets. Airsoft guns and rifles have an Orange or Red tip on the barrel. BB guns and pellet guns / rifles do not have a red or orange tip on the barrel.
No. First off, airsoft guns are chambered in a larger calibre, they're around .25" ( 6mm ). Modern BB guns are all .177 caliber. Pellet guns can be .177", .22" or .25", but bb's only come in .177 ( unless it's a real oldie which might be in .22 ) Second, airsofts all only shoot plastic balls or paint capsules. .177 BB's are copper plated steel the and the .22's are lead, and most BB guns will shoot the hourglass shaped lead pellets as well as BB's. Finally, airsoft rounds are propelled by a 'hammer" coming up and slamming into the round which drives it out the end of the barrel, BB's are always (so far as I know) propelled by a burst of air.
No recommended, Not designed for plastic BB's.
Yes, they shoot plastic 6mm bbs
The classic Red Ryder is a BB gun that shoots metal .177 caliber BBs.
All airsoft guns can shoot .12g bbs. However with more powerful guns, heavier bbs are recommended for better accuracy
All airsoft guns usually use 6mm BBs, usually made of plastic, and come in a variety of different weights (.12 grams, .20 grams, .25 grams, .28 grams). Normally .12 gram BBs are the cheapest, and are good for most airsoft guns, although airsoft guns that shoot at higher velocities should use .20 or .25 gram BBs, as they will shoot straighter.
pellet=no bb's= 6mm plastic not copper.
Nope. Plastic BBs are 6mm- about ,24 inches. Metal BBs are smaller- about .177 inches.
You can but it will a) jam ur gun b)shoot only about 3 feet c) get you in trouble for not being licensed to shoot metal bbs
Airsoft guns mainly shoot 6mm plastic BBs. Lightweight or cheap BBs may shatter on impact. There are many different weights for BBs which normally range from .12g or .48g. BBs can also come in different colors which allow for different functions. Black BBs, normally the main choice for mil-sim players because neither the shooter or the target can normally see the BBS. This is pretty much the same case with all dark BBs. White BBs allow for the shooter to easily see his or her BBs and so can the target, allowing the shooter to adjust his shot and the target to dodge the BBs. There's also glow in the dark BBs, which will glow with the aide of a tracer suppressor. Many mil-sim players who are conducting an operation at night load 4 black BBs then one tracer BB, and repeat the process. For daytime use, they load 4 black BBs then a white BB. Airsoft guns also shoot 8mm BBs, though this is very uncommon and mainly used in 40mm grenade launcher (basically an undermounted shotgun designed to look like an m203 launcher and grenade) rounds so that there is the best chance of hitting a target.
Airsoft guns often replicate real guns (such as M16, AK-47, ect,) and shoot little plastic pellets. Airsoft guns are commonly used for the sport of airsoft, which involves a simulation of war where you try to get the other players "out" by shooting them.BB guns are not meant to shoot people. They are single-action where airsoft guns are commonly automatic. They shoot small metal BBs which are generally meant for target practice. They generally have a higher velocity than airsoft guns and are dangerous to shoot at people but are not capable of killing anyone.
