OW! You're Shooting HOT!

[AGDlover]

i found after a little bit of play once your mag gets warmed up it likes to punch and thats probly what they're feeling so the next time someone says your shooting "hot" go over to the nearest ref with a hand crono

Tell em to go back home to mommy . Are you pointblanking?

I never noticed it before...but people have really been complaining at my field lately. Like my friend with a electro A-5 was allways getting complaints of over shooting(they were slow to raise their hands though). And there was alot more whining. This might have been because they stuck us with a birthday party downstairs (for some reason the people I was hanging out with wouldnt go up by the maggers ). Also it was in doors. But I've only been accused of shooting alittle too fast...not too hot.

i used to ALWAYS get complaints of my markers shooting hot with my old imp, i mean like multiple complaints EVERY time i played, and it was never caught shooting over 280 when checked, meh, was odd, but, never got any evidence of the velocity actually ramping or it shooting hot

[Chronobreak]

weird..i get told the same thing...


ex when i end up rasing my gun to the high heavens to shoot somone acros the field and NAIL them.

after the game its always "how did you hit me from that far"

meanwhile im watching these people shoot short while holding their guns steady.....you just gotta know how to use the gun.

when i had my mag and i got done shooting as fast as i can then chrono it would be up to 10 fps higher then when i would just soot just to chrono. i think it did this b/c the valve would heat up and the air would expand, but im not sure. so if you are shooting people when u are walking it maybe they are right.

Ok I'm having A LOT of problems out at the field and one of them would be my mag. Everyone at the field keeps complaining that i'm shooting hot and even after chronographing (THE CORRECT WAY) and after a random chrono it was reading 260-270 but i'm still getting complaints that my mag is shooting hot.

Am I the only one out there that has some magical mag that can ramp its velocity at will or are you guys out there getting the same problem with people complaining about mags hurting a lot more than other markers?

Yeah its called "AUTOmag" They hear the name, not only does full auto come to mind but also the thought of heavy firepower and velocity. I get the "shooting hot" crap all the time. I just take the dummy to the chrony and let him see for his stupid self.

the only gun i have ever been shot by that felt like it was shooting hot was my friends E-Orracle... everybody complained about that gun even though everybody knew it was not shooting hot... i got shot right in the middle of the chest one time by it when i got bunkered by him and i couldnt breathe for a few seconds... it was wierd

Emags and Xmags tend to increase the fps after you crono , Teammate cronno'ed to 270 , the limit was 280 and it want up to 282 after the game was over. This is the reason I always put my emag around 270-280. That was a tourney, but my local field is set at under 300 fps. People are gonna say E?X-mags hurt because they are getting hit more than once . Also mags are just a great marker.

[thorn]

i think it just hurts more because they realize that they got hit by a gun they called terrible, so therefore its not really hurting their bodies, moreso their pride.

[punkncat]

Well I tell ya. I think the "chrono procedure" for RT equipped mags is a little bogus. Now before you all get your panties in a wad let me explain.

The way it says to chrono is to pull the trigger hold it back, quickly release and then shoot again immediately. It works to give a good consistant reading across the chrono.

But when I chronoed shooting like I normally did with quick pulls and releases I always chronoed a good 15-20 FPS higher than using the "recommended" procedure. I would not be suprized that in normal use your marker is shooting hot, like many other mags, but take it to the chrono and use the "recommended" procedure and it SEEMS fine....

[Athius]

That happened to me once too but i think it was because i shoot 5 times the guy from like 25 feet.

[WenULiVeUdiE]

Happens to me sometimes. Except I just hear "Man, that one hurt alot more than usual." It's odd.
