Now I know it clearly says that this gun shoots .117 BB's, but I was wondering if it's able to shoot 6mm airsoft BB's?

Actually the caliber is .177, not .117, which equates to 4.5 mm. So no, you can't shoot 6mm airsoft BB's. The barrel and the magazine are too small.

Nope 6mm is bigger than .117 so the gun would not even be able to rack the BB and youbwouldnt be able to load them in the mag

I wouldn't use an airsoft BB - the BB's come out of a magazine and I'm not sure the airsoft's wouldn't jam up the magazine and wreck the gun.

Nah, it only shoots the little metal bbs. First thing I tried to do was shoot airsoft bbs but the barrel is too narrow.

With the CYMA MP5 I was using .12g "ultrasonic" green BBs. The BBs worked fine in all the other airsoft guns we had, so BBs were not a problem. When I purchased a better airsoft mp5 I switched to Airsoft Elite .2g BBs.

I would recommend sticking to standard BB's and Pellets and only shoot at targets. If your intent is to use the plastic BB's and this as an Airsoft gun, CO2 powered plastic BB's are going to hurt!

It all depends on the fps... however airsoft bbs are plastic so unless were talking metal bbs you'll be fine

NO!!! This is NOT an airsoft gun! It's a BB gun, it shoots metal not plastic! You'll shoot your eye out!

No it only uses bb"s but throw 6 0f them at one time at close range and it is very fun to shoot.

Hi..With crosman CO2 cartidges it shoots about 5-6 magazines.. It can shoot even more BBs but after 5-6 magazines they have low power and less accuracy.

Airsoft guns and pistols shoot tiny plastic bb's, not metal bb's. Most likely you are thinking of pellet guns. Those shoot metal bb's. This gun shoots the plastic bb's.

This is the 6mm version. I actually own a few of them and I only use 6mm bbs. I hope this helps my friend! :)

As far as I know it is 6mm. I use 6mm BBs in mine and that's all that I've used.

This is not an air soft gun, though it may shoot them, it is not designed for them. Of course I guess you could use BBs and be the last one standing. Just joking, Do not use BBs to shoot at anyone.

first of all its an airsoft dont use bb's, second 10amp is way too much use a 8.4amp max. hope this helps and chill with the cussing kids read this

Everything would "work" on this, with 300fps you hear the ping and see a slight movement of the target. Its a neat little target for any airsoft gun. But dont expect the targets to go spinning around in circles with an airsoft gun. I have one that shoots 650fps and even that doesnt get them to spin

no, this particular rifle can only shoot .177 pellets. It doesn't shoot bb's. It's a break barrel rifle with a rifled barrel, the metal bb's would destroy the rifling inside the barrel so I wouldn't even recommend putting anything other than lead pellets inside it. Some models of Crosman and most of the Daisy line of rifles that are pump (and have lower fps ratings) can use both metal bb's and pellets. Examples are the Crosman 760, Crosman m4-177. Daisy, 901, Daisy 880. It should specifically say both bb's and pellets can be used in the rifle in the ad. I would recommend the Daisy 880 or 901 as they have higher fps than other dual ammo rifles. (750fps for bb's, 715 fps for pellets). You won't be able to find one that shoots both that fire at 1000 fps- for that, you'd have to go with a pellet only rifle like the Crosman Phantom. Hope this helps.

I do not think metal BB's would be appropriate. The written info that came with the gun says it shoots 6 mm BB's. Metal BB's are much heavier than plastic ones; with metal BB's the muzzle velocity and the effective range would be substantially less. Also, as another responder replied, the extra stress on the gun may result in internal damage. The gun comes with a starter pack of white plastic 6 mm BB's. I've been using Crosman 0.20 gram, white, biodegradable, 6 mm, precision BB's with excellent results, although I do not see much in the way of BB biodegradation, even after 6 months of exposure of several used BB's I placed in an outside flowerpot that is exposed to sun, wind, and rain.

Yes, the gun is actually 400 fps with .12 bbs. I don't know if it hurts a lot because I never shot anybody with it, nor have I been shot by it.

No, just the .177 steel BB's. In 6 round burst (automatic fire) it is so much fun.
