Plastic BBs an option with this? Want to fire plastic BBs with this gun IF POSSIBLE - can anyone confirm (and point me in the right direction to find the ones I'll need)? THANKS!

Standard plastic BBs are too large. If you are able to find the right size, they would probably gunk up the rifling in the steel barrel. If you try it, be prepared to do thorough cleaning, maybe after every shot!

Return it. Mine had the same problem. Its got a crappy hopup bucking that I had to change. This is a beginners airsoft weapon for casual play. Its also way overpriced. I bought the exact same one on amazon for under a hundred bucks. Anything over that and you're getting ripped off. And NEVER USE BBS LIGHTER THAN .20! it will damage your weapon.

No, this gun shoots BBs only! The manufacturer also states the owner should use copper-coated BBs only.

You need the standard BB, but make sure its the plastic ones created specially for the air soft guns to prevent injuries.

any standard BBs work in this gun but the copper coated ones are nice,just go to walmart and buy a big box of BBs and shoot away.

No, that gun is a CO2 and I'm pretty sure these plastic shells will not be anywhere near as durable and result in breaking quite quickly, so just buy the shells intended for that gun.

Nope but you may want to save ur money and buy a gas or electric pistol instead because this one shoots very slow and it is a hassle to put bbs into the fake shells after every shot. But it up to you, best of luck.

Bought mine on sale 2 yrs ago at Wally's. Came with .177 and .22 barrels. Easy enough to check - just open the box!...Recommend you replace scope. I swapped for a Barska 2-7x32 Air Gun Scope. EXCELLENT pellet gun for the money, especially with a better scope mounted. Really nice wood furniture too. Using wadcutter pellets, I can hit a bottle cap mounted SIDEWAYS - OFFHAND at the 10 meter competition distance on a regular basis!!! To the reviewer who said it was a piece of junk - suggest he read the break-in period info and practice a little more. :-) Performance smooths out at about 300 rounds during which time, I found that wadcutters work best for mine - YMMV.

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.

You can search for them here on amazon just put 0.177 bb bullets and as far as I know only metal ones are compatible with this gun

No, it's not man. There is a model for pellets though. These are nice guns. If you buy / or have bought one, do the following:I agree with Robert ..........get yo'self a bunch of extra "bullets" (that hold the BBs), and for sure for sure, some speed loaders!! Dump out 6 emptys & in one motion load 6 full ones.....Bam!Happy air-shootin' ---be safe.

Are you nuts this gun shoots steel bbs,and they will shoot your eye out! this is not a toy,nor are airsoft guns. treat with a lot of care.

Amy, The lighter the BB the faster it will shoot however I would use what the manufacturer recommends. Something too heavy or too light may cause damage

Did anyone ever answer your question? I too have this same gun and thinking of making the purchase of this trainer. If you would, let me know. Thanks.

I use the .20 gram 6mm precision bbs by crosman - they are biodegradable and are accurate and work great. Never had any problem with them.
