    Okay, so here are a few n00b questions that have being niggling me for a while now, just wondering if anyone can answer them.

    1. Batteries: Is it essential to discharge batteries before charging them? And what happens if they're 'overcharged'? Don't have the money for a charger/discharger so have to rely on the ones supplied with my guns, and they dont have a discharge function.

    2. Some have told me to fire a few shots in semi before putting a gun away for a while, something about the spring...?

    3. Dry-firing f*cks up a gun pretty fast right?

    Cheers in advance lads. :cool:

    1. Only NICD batteries need discharged, and even that can be argued.

    2. Yeah, this is to relieve the spring tension on the piston, by bringing the piston to it's "starting" or "resting" position.

    3. Personally, I can see in no way at all how it does damage your guns at all - I think it's all BS :)
