Gryphon BBs Reviews?
 
Hi all.

I was just wondering if anybody had experience with B2's (gryphonairsoft) Gryphon line of BBs? It's getting harder to get quality bios since Bastards is gone now :(

Thanks!

Ran ok in my brothers PTW. no personal experience with them.

B2 was nice enough to send me some Gryphon 0.30g Bio's, so I could review them, which I'm hoping to do by this Sunday. But I've been ridiculously busy lately. I'll be testing them in a Tokyo Marui MK23 Socom, a KWA MK23 Socom, a G&G M16A3 and a Systema PTW MK18 Mod-0 for feeding, chrono and flight consistency. That being said, I've heard good things about B2 as a company. Also Elite Force and Green Devils are both good brands around Canada. The Elite Force are especially easy to come across I find.

Favorite are madbulls, but yeah EF hasn't ever let me down either :)

Allegedly the Gryphon BBs are the same as green devils but I found that the Devils are better flying BBs

Yes I've heard that, right from B2 as it were. That being said, Green Devils are one of the best BBs of all time. I briefly looked at Green Devils next to Gryphons and they looked different, but I haven't had the chance to shoot them yet. I base my pass/fail system on Elite Force now. They aren't the best, but they are readily available, never jam/chop and rarely have an unbalanced flier, though they don't match the quality of Bastards or Devils.

I use them weekly in a PTW, ERG and a couple ACR's. Work very well with all of them, accuracy is great as well. I'm going to use a bit lighter for speed of bb but for the most part I like all the results thus far. Even their tracer 25s where really nice to use albeit in LMGs however they all flew very well with little spread at 200'.

You're using Gryphon's or Elite Force?

I keep on hearing that BB Bastards were the best, so why are they gone??

Soft CAD dollar and a soft vendor market

Their whole market was just us, with higher QC.

Any gun I used BB Bastards in misfed. Every time. And not to mention half the quantity of other brands for more money.

BBB were by far the best BBs I ever used, never ever had any problem with them. Oh well, at least we still have the MadBulls. Their PLAs BBs are pretty much the same thing as the BBB Bio.

I'm gonna have to call you out on that big time. First off, I've been doing this for over a decade hardcore and am very picky about everything I use, not to mention I run a Systema PTW (known as one of the most picky guns around). I've used most of the mainstream BB companies and a ton of others over the years, including side-by-side comparisons. Tons of weights, colours, in tons of guns and weather conditions. Nothing has even come close to the quality of Bastards and that includes the other classically known BEST brands that have come along and even been around longer. I've ordered Basatards from multiple retailers and even had them delivered by the crate. I have NEVER had a bad batch or any even mis-feed or chop. That's hundreds of thousands of rounds and maybe exponentially more as many, if not most, of my friends over the years used Bastards almost exclusively. They are so polished they almost feel oily in your hands. So either you don't have actual Bastards or there's something wrong with your gun. If you have some "crappy" Bastards in your possession I'd be hella' interested to see some of them.

Has anyone else had a similar experience to this guy?

I've had a few misfeeds with BBB's "Frag" line, but it could have been the cheap mag as well (I didn't get to test with other brands). Usually they fed just fine and flew nice and straight.
