Airsoft Guns

[gamarada717]

After playing with my friends a few times, and borrowing a semi auto M9 gas powered pistol on my friends every time, I've decided to buy my own gun. I tried purchasing a few from www.jungletoy.com, but, the one I got it utter crap. First off, they sent me a spring gun when I ordered a gas one, but they only charged me for the spring one. Fortunatly, I sold it to a kid at my church and made 10 bucks profit.

So, what I'm looking for is either 2 good gas pistols, heavy weight, or maybe even one pistol (As long as it's reload system is relatively fast). I've got about 60 bucks to spend, and I already have gas and .12 gram bbs. I like the M9, it feels good in my hand, but since I've never really shot any real pistols at all, I don't have much to compare it to. My friends that I play with all use gas powered pistols, a few have electric guns, but I think those suck and don't hit hard enough.

This isn't very serious play...just a cheaper alternative to paintball since I just bought my own car, and most of them did as well.

Any help will be much appreciated! I know that there has to be some airsoft buffs out there...

I too am wondering about airsoft guns...I was thinking something like this for a setup.

This will be on a sling for close combat...

This will be in a holster on my leg with another clip...

and I will get all the other little accesories I want...maybe like a laser sight or something.

For anyone who knows about airsoft, are all those atleast ok beginner guns??

I can get all I want for $134...or I might even just get the pistol, holster, and laser sight. I don't know...I just need a cheaper alternative to paintball since I'm trying to save for a car.

all those crap ones will break soon after inital use.

i just invested 300 in a m177. figure might as well make it last a few years

ill post the specs and pics tomarrow if you would like

[JoshK]

Actually I settled on this one...a friend of mine has a slightly lower model, and has never had it break...

and then I'm just going to get a bi-pod and I'm set.

spring? blah

[JoshK]

Ih...I'm poor plus...one thing I like about this one...is it has the little pump thing that comes out of the barrel grip thing, but that you can fold into the barrel thing if you want to cock it like normal.

Also like everyone I would play with have spring ones...so I want to keep in the same category as my friends.


EDIT: do you know anything about the brand of that gun? I'm not too familiar with anything...

I feel like such a noob

[Glickman]

im a little new at it too but i am sure of this:


Tokyo Marui KICKS ***!!!


its like the tippmann of airsoft. but this is how i would rank them

Classic Army (too expensive in my book)
Tokyo Marui
KWC, KWA & all the rest
Chinese ones

the classic army im talking about are like $500 m4's but they are a good maker, cant go wrong with them or marui, never seen classic make a spring rifle though

[JoshK]

Well your post really makes me feel good about their quality as a whole. The little foregrip type of pump really turns me onto this gun.

[Glickman]

yep classic is an awsome company, all their guns except the low ends are totally metal.


if only insurance would cover airsoft as well as paintball
