RE: The next step
I was going to speak more about this subject but I'll leave it at this: think twice about trying to sanction or hold events with bb( or pellet, whatever ) shooting tanks. I'd never attend any event nor want to be associated with any group that promotes bb shooting models. Period. I've modified all three( or are on the way to doing so) bbguns of my PzKw III models to act as an ersatz recoil unit instead of shooting bbs. I for one don't ever want to have to wear googles or headgear to prevent getting zinged by some errant projectile at a model run.
