Default Battery Damage

If you leave your battery in the gun, does it drain it?
Or does it only use battery if you actually shoot?

No it does not drain it. The batteyr will slowly discharge as it sets. I just charge them before each game.

If your wires in your gun are stripped the power could short out and would use up the battery in metal guns not shore about plastic. Other wise the gun would not use power.

No one is quite sure. It was some dodgy battery from some wierd chinese website so it could of just been really dodgy. Well infact it was just really dodgy. Yeah I don't think it would be a pleasant experience.
