On your next trip to Wal-Mart, pick up a Crosman M70 automatic airsoft gun. This air pistol is a full auto mini electronic machine gun. It holds up to 84 plastic BBs and has a Hop-Up propulsion system. This plastic air gun takes four AA batteries and comes with 100 plastic BBs. The gun can generally last a full day on one set of batteries. It does okay for a plastic pellet gun, but if you want to see how much power you can tweak out of this gun, try this hack and check out the amount of power increase!

First step: Open the plastic case of the gun, but be really careful not to lose the springs that will inevitably shoot out of the gun. On the right side of the gun, you will find six phillips-head screws and one phillips-head screw on the left side of the gun. You will have to carefully pry off the orange tip and then the gun should pop open. Make sure to collect all the pieces that come out of the gun, you will need all of them.
