Will this protect the optic from Airsoft BB's (6mm, 20-40g, 250-450fps)?

well, while I can't say it will as I never bothered to shoot mine with an airsoft....it certainly couldn't hurt. but I would not put a 100% faith in it stopping it from damaging the optic

If you will go to the Tenebraex website you can see the image of the actual killflash designed for the Sparc and the Sparc II. The one pictured here is closer to the model they produce for the Vortex Strikefire or the Trijicon version. If you have access to a well stocked local gun shop I would simply take one of your BB's (6mm?) and try it out and get a feel for the material before you bet your glass on it. Of course, with an optic like the SPARC II, you ought to be the one making the shot!

I'm sure it would. If it hit the front of it, would probably break the grill and safe the glass. Still, I don't know why you'd spend that kind of $$$ on a BB gun.

Unfortunately no. Reason? The honeycomb that is pictured on this kill flash on Amazon IS NOT the same size. It is actually a lot bigger (wider spaced) and would easily allow a BB to pass through. Additionally, the honeycomb looks very fragile and would be damaged (I think) if a BB were to hit it directly. Hope this helps

I would only use high quality .20 6mm seemless bbs if you want the best performance

i have never tried , but I assume it would . I have had trouble with the airsoft ammo not firing so I would think a heavier load would helpI will try tonight with bb's

Not good those plastic balls an steel bbs will bounce back at you. Should only shoot lead pellets at STEEL TARGETS . Id say no closer then 20 yards. Then wear safety glasses your eyes are very important

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.

This is what we shoot and they work really well.Crosman Biodegradable AirSoft BBs (5000 .20G 6mm, White BBs)

These goggles are ANSI z87.1 rated, so they pass the safety standard for airsoft eyewear. One thing, though, is that they are a tight fit over glasses. I would definitely take this into consideration if you wear glasses.

Yes, as far as I know. I have not tried it with a .177 caliber BB, but I tested it in response to your question with a 6mm airsoft pellet. The chrony reported muzzle velocities averaging about 225 fps at the muzzle. The measured velocities were very consistent, and I have no reason to doubt their accuracy (it was not a top-notch airsoft pistol).

You want to get any 6mm bbs which weigh more than 0.2g. Anything less will result in possible jams and less accuracy. I'd recommend 0.25g or 0.28g at the most for this airsoft. You exchange a bit of range, for far more accuracy.

ive seen those videos where folks shoot them with bb's, I see no combat situation where id be shooting an optic with bb's though, its a 30$ sight, it probably wont survive a bb blast, usually the double glass higher end ones survive

No it won't ! It handles the bbs fine but I tried the pellets u mentioned and they jammed! No damage but do not recommend trying!

Air soft probably work ok. 20 .40 cal rounds and it fell apart completely. The lens protectors are really really cheap. I took them off right away so I don't know about looking through em.

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.

Yes. With .20 gram bbs I hit a six inch wide pole from 100 feet away about 8/10 times with the iron sights. The missed shots were only off by maybe 1 inch.

No, it does not. I personally prefer using these: 1000 Bag .12g 6mm BBs for Airsoft Guns
1023772
Yes it shoots 400fps with .12 gram, 375fps with .20 and 350 with .25 airsoft bb's
1408165
Yes it does matter what kind of BBs are needed for this gun. Only plastic 6mm .20gram -6mm .25 BBs can be used with this gun it's an airsoft gun not a real BB Gun I had the same problem.
