Dangerous Machines

Both the Jones and the Smith Machines are very dangerous pieces of equipment that give a false sense of security to those who lift in a commercial gym. You're much better off lifting free weights rather than using a machine that can trap you fix your position and injure your back and knees because of the unnatural movement patterns. A kid in Ohio was nearly killed the other day doing a decline press on a Jones Machine without a spotter.More detail ...

I like this gun overall. I got it a few years ago. Pearks:

1. The pump action gives you a high rate of fire

2. It really packs a punch

3. you get a lot of bang for buck (its cheap)

Down side

1. bad sights get a red dot weaver sight

2. mag design is bad get a few extra if you r a hardcore airsoft player

3. no sling mounts

4. mine is half broken b/c i used it all the time but it lasted a whileMore detail ...

Dangerous! Cheap Poor Quality - You get what you pay for !!

The bars are very light and feel cheap when you pick them up. No worries I say they're CHEAP and I don't want to shell out the Benjamins for real solid professional equipment. Besides I'm not running a professional gym; it's just me and my son working out in our home gym.



All goes well until the end piece (where the weight plates sit) on the curl bar pops off with no warning. The force of gravity causes the weights to fall with loud noises YIKES what surprise. Loud noises cussing the curl bar twists violently in my hands (one side is now considerably lighter then the other) dents in floor etc. No injuries but certainly could have been broken feet crushed toes and serious wrist and forearm injuries from the sudden violent twist when one side unloaded quickly.



Well now I'm out what I pad for the damn bar and I'm feeling silly to boot. I share my pain only to prevent you from making the same stupid mistake I did. You don't get something for nothing you get what you pay for and cheap equipment will cost you more in the long run.



I will now do what I should have done in the first place namely belly up to the (curl) bar and pay for a solid professional well made curl bar not this junk.

Hunk of Junk

I bought this Smith and Wesson Chief's Special as my first airsoft gun. I was very excited. It worked great...for about three weeks. Even though I took very good care of the gun the cheap spring loader broke. Save yourself some money and buy another brand of airsoft gun. Smith and Wesson stinks.More detail ...
