The thing with most airsoft players is that once they have found a BB brand they like, they just stick with it until something goes wrong, or they stop making that particular brand. Also, for all we know, that BB factory could be the exact same source that is making some other brands. A good bit of what Nov does is just rebrand things with his tag on them and then tack on an extra mark up. For all we know, the process could be the exact same as every other BB except they polish it for an extra second and call it a brand new process. OR I could just be far too cynical for my own good :hehe:
 
For the price he is asking I'd rather go with geoff's. Atleast we all know how do they perform and how good they are.
 
It's interesting but unless his OEM is BLS, they will be lower quality then what is currently available. If they are BLS rebranded then they will be grossly overpriced... Like whalesmash said, I will stick to my current BB supplier.
 
With all this brand-name expensive crap I bet Nov is soon going to be the richest airsofter (as in, the person who made the most money from airsoft).

I try to mantain an open mind even tho what you guys have said is true, he mostly rebrands stuff, BUT if they happend to be better... i wonder how much.
Lets wait for someone to take the bite and try these and compares them to stablished brands.
 
Lol Bobcat that was my first thought... "hmmm aluminum bottles, I've seen that before!"

Novritsch is the king of rebranding so honestly I would stick with the tried & proven geoffs. Even if the novritsch bb's perform well, the geoffs will remain cheaper.
 
it cost nearly 40 bucks for 1000 Geoffs for me in the states because of shipping. The closest retailer that i know if is from Canada and the shipping was 18 bucks buy itself. I heard from Facebook from a guy that has been to BLS factory and that is it in his video. So they are definitely produced there. But the question is are they doing something different like i heard ASG are also made there but both have different processes. Either way im buying one bottle because there is an american retailer selling then with 4 dollar shipping so it isn't too bad for me. Still paying 5 bucks for the bottle though. I am going to test them against ASG.
 
It's probably BLS. There are about 4 BB factories in the world.
Novritsch is good. Not a very good airsofter and not a very good sniper but very good at marketing. He is building a brand and sells big bucks to the new generation of airsofters (meaning clueless COD generation mostly). Good job, I wish I could do that.
 
i understand for where its not legal. But as long as i can use non bio im going to. The field i play at requires everyone to use there custom Tokyo marui bio bbs except bolt action snipers. They are good quality bbs for the most part but there only weights are .20, .25, and .28 and the colors are blue. green, and purple respectively. The purples are hard as hell to see when looking into any kind of sight.
 
Why? The difference between bio and nonbio are about 10-15 years. What does it matter if they decompose in 60 or 70 years?
And from my personal experience, bio BBs are worst than nonbio.
Simple, all of the fields around me and all the events I attend require bio bbs.

So with the above information, tell me why I should care about something I can not use?

He's a decent player for what I've seen (trust me, creating high quality video is not possible without good footage and therefore good gameplay), he's not the best tech (not by a long shot) but like you said, he really excels at marketing. Good for him, it's working quite well.

But yeah, I'm restricted to bio as well for all local games, and for out of country milsim games where I can use non bio, I'll stick to the tried & proven geoffs anyway :yup:

Just what I was going to say. He is a good player. Even with editing in the videos, we can see that he is fit and he knows how to play. So credit where credit is due.
He may not be the best tech out there but to be honest, all the info that us experienced techs know is on this forum and I would be surprised if he has not read it. So there is a good chance he even knows what we know.
He has a lucky lifestyle with airsoft becoming a good income. :shot:
 
Fabi is a regular on this forum and I get a feeling that he's been helping out Novritsch with his gun as well so I am confident that there's nothing wrong with his gun. He probably even knows that the Edgi kits he's selling are not the best upgrade route. But he knows how to market it and people are buying it so it works out for him. So I understand why he's doing it regardless :hehe:
