This is dangerous.

retaining bbs in the hopup would make the gun nearly impossible to make safe.

Removing the magazine and firing the weapon would clear the chamber but there could be 2 more rounds retained in the feed path.

Subsequently if the "unloaded gun" was put down one of those could easily roll into the chamber loading the gun.. when it was believed to be in an unloaded condition.

Is the cost of 3 bbs worth putting all your friends at risk?
