    Hey lads, just wanted to know where do you store your bbs during the game? Do you just care a bottle of bbs at all times in case your mags run out empty or you have some sort of things to store the bbs in? I mean i saw on ebay some bottles shaped as a frag grenades. That was actually a bottles of bbs (not sure about the quality of bbs, probably ****e) that you can buy and store up to 800 bbs in them. I think it's great to have something like this instead of 0.5L bottles:) it also looks cooler in-game:) the only problem i encountered is that you can't order them to europe, i.e. the seller does not ship to europe, only to states...
    So where do you store your bbs?
    P.S. this question does not apply to people, who have loads of mags in theyr poaches:D

    I used to just use the bottle, but the rattle will put you off the idea very quickly, even in a grenade shaped thing.

    Some of those can be used to reload a hi-cap though so its a balance of usefulness and annoyingness :)

    Dam! there goes my first smart comment!!!

    Anyway, What I used to do (before buying more mags and limiting my shots) was get a plastic sandwich bag, fill you mag with the max it will hold (unwind-ed) then empty those into the plastic bag. You can do this as many time as you want. It all depends how many refills you want in any one game.

    In game, all you need do for a refill is pop the dead mag out, tear the corner off of the sandwich bag with your teeth and dump all of the BB's in the mag in one go. They will all fit as you measured them earlier.

    Also, because the BB's are in a flexible bag it's easier to keep quiet in your pocket.

    Todays cheep airsoft tip was brought to you, in part, by the letter Z and the number 9.


    :D

    A simple ziploc freezer bag is among the best solutions I have seen, you can carry what you need without the rattle, it also squeezes into tight spaces in pockets/pouches. I've recently started using something similar to this, it's just a compressible bottle, they don't rattle and the nozzle makes it handy to refill mags

    I used to use a bottle, but found

    A] it would rattle too much and

    B] you couldn't change the shape

    So I have recently switched to using this

    http://cgi.ebay.ie/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130416334441&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

    They hold a max of 6000 BB's, but you can fill them to whatever level you want to fit your various pouches and pockets, and they also rettle alot less then a bottle will do.

    And, personally speaking, they look pretty cool, and are failry cheap

    P.S, what your looking for is this

    :D huh..never thought of sandwich bags as of an option!:) have to think about it, thanks for tips:)

    Cyprinus Carpio where did you get your bottle and bbs are not making noise inside the bottle? Any link would be appreciated:)
    Oh never mind my question, found an answer:)

    Someone on the forum before suggested using a rag to shut that rattling bottle up
