    good, these sound like some lower powered ones. gonna have to check into them.

      I wouldnt buy him a paintball gun (technically its a marker) just yet. They can shoot faster 300fps easily. But going and playing isnt a big deal. Just dont wear anything thats good, the paint will stain sometimes. It also can leave a nasty whelp that mom wont like. Also check the price its very easy to go through 500 rounds and that extra paint can add up quickly

          I taught my kids basic range safety with some airsofts. Things like whether the range is hot, etc.

          They are a lot of fun for sitting on the porch drinking beer and cooking hot links. Drive some 16d nails into a board just a couple of inches, set some empty cans on the nails (stick the can upside down on the nail) and when you hit you get to see the can jump, and eventually get chredded, but you don't have to go reset the targets every round.

            If u wanna play scenarios, war games, etc; buy the high dollar guns and be 18+ yoa. Not so good for young'ns. These are too real looking for a juvenile to be running around with. Pm me of u want more details.

              I fucking hate airsoft guns. They clog my internet searches with bullshit toys.

                Indeed. Few things are more unsettling than when you click on a video entitled "M60 FULL AUTO DESTRUCTION" or "PSG1 Long Range Accuracy Test" only to find some 12 year old shooting cans or GI Joe action figures in a suburban backyard while LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOR is playing.

                  lofl, that is the truth. Or when you're looking at HK furniture and shit is suspiciously cheap.

                      What is the point of red dots and scopes on spherical non-rifled projectiles? What the fuck is wrong with people?

                        They only know what they see in the movies.

                          Maybe it's so they can have a good clear magnified view of their projectiles veering off target.

                            Nah. I was comparing it to a 330fps bb gun.

                            Paint is expensive, will stain the fence, and you have to get your co2 refilled all the time. Guns are like $100 minimum as well.

                            Airsoft pistols are $25, Airsoft bb's are cheap as dirt, won't hurt your fence, and can be bought biodegradable so they don't leave a mess.

                              It's for fun obviously. What's the point of a spoiler on a toy car??

                                Only thing I'd want airsoft would be a M41A Pulse Rifle.



                                Don't want to pay for it, though.
