    Corsair Voyager Takes Sniper Fire!

    Our next 2 shows put the Corsair Voyager in the firing line against a regular memory stick. With muzzle velocities reaching over 500 ft/sec, can (assault and) Battery Sergeant Nick finally prevent the Rubberdized Wonder from working?
    Watch the show.

    Hehe, that was sooo much fun!

    btw, for those of you watching the show, I wasn't allowed to use the guns for the simple reason that they all know I can't be trusted...

    Wouldn't it be even more fun to take one of those Ironkey pendrives to a real shooting range?

    Re: Corsair Voyager Takes Sniper Fire!

    i think the voyager will do better due to its rubber outisde..i have one of these pendrives..ive sat on it..dropped it and all sorts and it still works.

    I think these bb's will simply bounch of the outer casing.

    I agree, i too own one of these, very durable solution to a product that does generally take a fair amount of abuse.

    Re: Corsair Voyager Takes Sniper Fire!

    I love the way that bloke looked all professional when firing the guns and still managed to miss it by an inch with the sniper rifle from 10ft.

    I know nothing about airsoft by the way.

    Can't lie, was disappointed it wasn't a real sniper rifle after reading the headline

    I'd like to second the idea of getting something shot with real lead bullets, even one of the corsair ones for the joy of watching it fly into tiny fragments.

    Or even an air rifle with some lead pellets if you didn't want to annihilate it...

    Re: Corsair Voyager Takes Sniper Fire!

    This is an important test - I've lost count of how many times snipers have shot my corsair flash memory

    How about strapping one to a massive firework just to check that they'll cope with that ok? I'm getting worried - November is just around the corner.

    Catherine wheel would be the best bet. That way we'd have a good chance of finding it afterwards

    Nah, it'll be in my garden or on the bonnet of my car, that's where all rockets end up
