Airsoft anyone?!


Well I admit I have now fallen into the sweet embrace of airsoft... will be joining a league pretty soon. Precisly... as soon as I can rake up the 1000$ for the gun and the uniform: M4A1 and US Woodland camo suit.

Anyone here play or have a pic of their gun(s)!?

Here is my future baby... I fell in love when I saw it! *drools*

I'm happy with paintball, but airsoft is OK. If I played, I'd go for the G3/SG-1 with a mini scope. Forgot which company made it.

The main reason is that I'm already putting cash into my paintball marker.

The one your talking about is probably made by Tokyo Marui. Good company. My friend has the G3/PSG and he doesnt regret it. Great combo for sniper/assault rifle. He has a 4x scope on it and upgraded it to 450 fps wich at less then 50 feet penetrates the skin...

Rofl Oni. I don't think I'll blow much up with that. The M203 under it basicly blows a nade wich shoots about 180 small plastic bb's. The gun has a high cap of 500 rounds... all plastic bb's.

Stupid question, but are I am assuming that gun is metal right? How far do plastic BBs fly, and how much are they affected by wind? The thing I love about paintball is the balls can fly a good distance, and they are heavy enough that small winds do not mess with them... Even cruising at 45 mph you can hit things!

Only got springers at the moment

Had a Metal Walther P99, great gun, very accurate, but eventually It died
Was made by a good company (not Tokyo Marui) but I can't remember the name

Currently got a Glock 17, feels pretty cheap, but its a solid gun, accurate as fuck as well Just a cheapy one though

Next thing I'm after is a full auto MP5K, with mini scope and Laser, look so freaking cool

Where I got some of my stuff...

I run a Tokyo Marui M4


I advise against the under-mount nade launcher, the utility is limited, and honestly they kinda suck.

Instead get an undermounted pump-action shotgun... then also cary at least 1 side arm and/or an SMG

I run 2 KSC M93r II and they are the pimp... Nice tight weapon with a great feel and kick ass recoil.


Also don't underestimate the need to buy MAgazines. We will sometimes go out and have battles that can last up to 5 hours with no down time (living on the edge of a national forest has it's advantages!)

As to accuracy questions, I've found that even with a lower FPS then some koffers Airsoft shot are so small that they cut through the wind, while the weight of Paintball is an advantage, the size makes them more prone to being blown off course... at least in my experience.

Personel record is about 130 yards in the middle of winter, and this is Colorado, so the wind always blows!

ok i put togeter my package of armerments:

Main wepon

Full custom sniper system based on the G3 platform, the MSG90 employs an MSG90 custom foregrip with integrated lower rail system and no front sight post to get in the way of a scope. Custom moulded PSG1 style pistol grip adds greater comfort for precision aiming. Extra long PSG1 style outer barrel houses an equally long precision barrel for greater power and accuracy. Harriss bipod provides a more stable platform. Low profile scope mount provides a sleek platform for the scope. Large battery is housed in the fixed stock - up to an 8 cell 9.6V battery
___________________OR____________________


Tokyo Marui Colt M733

Depending on situation

Backup arms:
for the sniper


for the m733


But my coil gun will still own anything there.

pfeh, the AR-15 is a whore. the Berreta 92 is a finicy bitch. and no one i know would be caught dead with an H&K arm. and belive me, that's just how they'd be caught. dead.

give me a bullpupped M14, an FN/Browning Hi-power, and a KA-BAR bayonette.
