Airsoft

[XxHennersXx]

Does anyone else on this forum play (or collect) airsoft? I first started 8 years ago, here and there with cheap guns, and got really into it about 3 years ago.

Yep I use a an echo 1 covert ak with drum and foregrip + a lifepo 9.9 battery. YAh it gets the job done in cqb.

I sorta/kinda do. I've got 2 nice guns, but use them more for target practice rather than games. I don't have time for games anymore!
My fav is my VFC Scar in black, mounted an ACOG scope and a foregrip. Love that one, handles well for long range shooting.
I've also got a Kar98K from *insert brand here*. Shoots really fast, has a great 12X scope, and I use it to screw with the golfers at the local golf course. Not shooting them but rather the golf balls on the tees.

my main gun lately is a JG G36C with a few modifications. Gotta adjust the mchbox, do a reshim on it. Have a foregrip, 9.6v batttery, madbull Tightbore barrel and an EOtech optic. Also have a JG M4 S-System, and a bunch of other guns.

This morning I added up all my orders from Evike...well over a grand. :/ Then you add up all the OTHER airsoft stores...yeah...

I guess I started playing airsoft about a year ago and found it was a sport that came natural Immediately I was invited by a pro team to be their second sprinter. After that we played a pros vs joes match 6 against 36 (I was one of the 6) , the match took only 3 minutes and 45 seconds. For those who don't know a sprinter is a guy ( usually 3 of them on a team) who runs secure's an area.

I think airsoft is cool and I'm amazed by the variety and ingenuity of them. I haven't gotten into them though because the cheap ones don't interest me and I just can't justify the price of higher cost ones when I can get something real for around the same amount of money.

One day I might pick up one of those Real Sword Type 56's (very cool) but only because it has a part I need for my real one and ironically it ends up a better value to buy one of those than trying to find the part on its own.

Depends on what you consider cheap. Decent guns now cost about 130-150 dollars. Reenforced gearboxes, Lipo ready MOSFETs installed in a lot of them, full metal bodies. Alot has changed in a few years.

As for real guns costing as much as higher end guns - I find that to be a moot point. Guns kill - airsoft guns don't. Guns are designed to kill, airsoft guns are for sport/recreation.

If you don't want to KILL things, and want to play a game similar to paintball...the idea of real guns being as much as high end airsoft guns is invalidated.

Nice collection, all I have is a few spring powered airsoft guns. The best place for them (that sells decent name stuff such as Tokyo Marui) here is Wolf Armories, however I'm pretty sure a law came in sometime in late october 2007 that requires you to have a license for anything above battery powered and Wolf is pretty damn expensive. There's a place that sells all kinds of stuff were I live but its quite expensive and the choice is limited.
