Chinese M500 SSB 8mm Shotgun Review Written By Stone

337FPS with .34g that's approx. 1.7J which translates to 430FPS with .20. Not only illegal for CQB but for regular fields too.

430 is technically not illegal at normal since it's "single shot" and would be considered a sniper rifle :D

There's no hop adjustment on it so the range is severely limited which almost negates the Sniper MED. And I thought they shot 3 at a time?

yes but they contained a high level of mercury instead. Alot of their knock-off toothpastes, shampoo and soap had high levels of mercury.

There was a 1 week documentary on China done by Discovery/Times. In it they talked about the vast changes in China. Talked about the lack of an "OSHA" type of oversight. Companies virtually own employees. You could be fired just for not saying the company motto right. They've completely eliminated all local wild seafood populations by either pollution or consumption (more on the latter).

You could always supplement the poppy sound by telling "POW!" :lol:

There's not much of a poppy sound. A GBB has more of a pop to it. And the sound is so anticlimatic that I don't think I could yell "POW" to supplant it. Shotguns don't need range they need to be loud

Sorry. My fat fingers missed the key i intended to punch. Its kinda hard to type with one hand.

[quote="freq88"]Good review though the whimpy sound output still makes me frown on airsoft shotguns[/quote][First off: Thanks!]

airsoft m203 'nades make a much louder sound with a very low FPS output. I could be done. Greater gas pressure does not always equate to louder sound output. A 600 FPS Gas Sniper doesn't make that loud of a sound in comparison to the impact sound of a metal piston head hitting a cylinder on an aeg.

I added my own photos.

lol man i may get one of these at some point.

i wont get to play again till about 1 year from now so i will ask you then how its holding up.

Haha, arrite man. It'll probably only get half a year's use from now until then, though, since I'm gonna be going to college in SF in July. :roll:

This gun seems pretty impressive[seeing as how its a clone].

if you want a shotgun for CQB or in a Sacair pistol match i would suggest a TM.

I originally had a Maruzen CA870. The one irreplaceable plastic part inside eventually wore out.

lol i like my TM its cheap shots 3 at a time and each shell holds 30 rounds. not i do like the one you just got but there is no way you could use if for CQB but if some on is hiding is some tall grass i am sure it would rip throw that crap NP.

Bump. Update on original post! Check it out!

I recently acquired one of these in 6mm and have only one problem with it.
