I just got a very good buy. a 12m chain of 8mm bb's
. They are called Garland beads. You find em at any discount shop in the christmas decorations section. I roughly counted it to be about 1200+ on each chain. Should last me a while
.
.............15min in and I've ripped off 20 beads...urgh this is gonna take a while

The lack of 6mm beads was the exact reason I went to 8mm. I looked at so many different shops, saw nothing in 6mm and everying in 8mm hahaha

Good luck on ripping off all those beads, going to be a while but it'll be worth it. Nice find.

Ripping them off when you need a shot would be a lot easier, you could even create a little case for it on your gun lol.

Pretty much, if you're a bogan you go there, if you're an Islander, you go there.
No offence to anyone, just a generalization.
Hell I go there
Good deals.
