The pellets the tank uses or rather they ones you get at Wal-mart: Are the biodegradable? I mean if I start shooting them around outside in my yard, am I going to be finding them for the next 20 yrs? (Hate to sound environmentalist...) Also, since I don't have a tank yet in my hands, how is this thought: I see at Wal-mart they have glow in the dark pellets. Would it be feasible to rig up a bright white LED in the ammo hopper to illuminate them? Or is there always one in the chamber that wouldn't get the illumination. I don't know how the mechanism works. I thought it would be cool seeing the glow in the dark ones flying from the barrel at night with a bright "charge" on them!

I don't think they are biodegradable because I have little Orange balls every were. It can make for a good quiet time to go out in the back looking to see how many one can find
 Here in Australia I don't seem to be able to buy the BB's of any type but GLOW in the DARK ones would be great. You could CHARGE them up during the day and use them at night

I took mine to work one day and a year later we are still finding bb's hiding in the weirdest places. I want glow in the dark bb's! It would be funny to see all the little glowing dots hiding in the grass... Biodegradable sounds great if they exist. Even if it tok a year to dissolve that would still be better then plastic... |

Yes, you can add an LED into the "magazine", you'd want to run a separate power wire up into the turret so it's on all the time. Will you find them for 20 years? No, the critters in the yard will eat them! "Hmm, what that's little glowy thing? Looks tasty! Yumm..."
