Hi I rescently started playing airsoft properly and was just wondering if anyone else plays it and what guns and equipment you have, also where you play and what got you into it.

I started a couple of years ago with spring rifles/pistols with a couple of friends was great fun. As I got a limited amount of cash I don't have like TM's and CA's I got replica AEG's at the moment. I got a JG M4A1 as my main rifle. I will upload some pictures of them when I get my camera working. I'm also saving up for a new gun. If i can find a heat sheild for a M16A4 that goes to the U.k I will get a JG/dboys m16a4 with a m203 launcher heat sheild and probably an acog.

I use a crappy battery powered M4 variant made by some company in china, my sidearm is a gas powered Glock 18 replica. Nobody ships to Kuwait so I'm stuck with whatever shit I can find here. I play in building sites which is a fucking awesome thanks to multiple floors and plenty of shit to hide behind, along with the inherent risk of sharp stuff lying around and nothing to stop you going over the side if you don't pay attention when backing away from someone. I'm currently looking for a new gun as I'm going back to the UK for christmas so I'll get a decent one then.

A few months ago change in law happened you have to have a licence/UKARA registered to buy airsoft guns anymore. Under the Violent Crimes Reduction act. Basically bans all realistic guns. www.rsov.com would probably ship to kuwait.

I own a Diemaco C7 with Elcan Scope, and it's got a M120 spring in it, and a Neuhausen(pistol), and I also have a M21 sniper.

I'm from Denmark and play MilSim, so my group follow a danish soldiers impression.

I got really into it for a while and had a JG M4 S-system, but I kinda got bored with it. SO i sold my gun. I played at Corams in Long Island.

I have a shitty Dick's sold Shotgun, and a crappy pistol. Both spring.

I usually play whereever we can. We played in some woods behind a friends house and used stone walls for some close quarter combat.

I wanted to start, but then I heard how the guys around here tune their guns up so much that the ball can break a tooth from far away. Of course there's protective equipment and stuff but it's still scary.

A kid I knew had his tooth shot out by a BB, but its really rare, that's why alot of professionals use a paintball mask. I do regardless of FPS, since it's the only safety wear I have. I bought a Matrix AK47 with a Metal Gearbox from Evike.com and it died a few weeks after the 14-Day warranty. If I ever buy any more guns from Evike, I'll buy an extended warranty. I'm looking to upgrade my gun collection again, and basically narrowed it down in terms of price, power, and types. Let me know what you guys think:


Evike AGM/JP APS2 Type96 Spring Sniper Rifle (http://store.matrixbb.com/servlet/-strse-28051/New-Version-AGM-fdsh-JG-APS2/Detail)

This gun is an option right now, because if I buy a spring-powered sniper, it will probably be my friend's rifle. I'd really like a gas powered one, but as of yet, I haven't gone to any Airsoft Scenarios, just backyard games here at my 5-Acre house and my friend's house down the street.

Airsplat KWC Desert Eagle Gas Pistol (http://www.airsplat.com/Items/GP-SA-90525-51K.htm)

If I buy any gas pistol, this is my choice. Buy some additional clips, and I'm all set.


Package Deal: IKA Zuchi Type O Middle Range Battle Rifle w/ Mock Silencer, Lipoly Battery Set, Scope Mount, and Red Dot Scope (http://store.matrixbb.com/servlet/-strse-29185/*-PKG-DEAL-cln--IKA/Detail)

Just wishful thinking at this point; not realistic at all, but I guess the package deal appeals to me.

This would be my 2nd "upgrade" to new guns. At first, I bought mini electric Steyr SMGs for $20 each, but now I'm getting more serious with my buys; going from a 250 FPS M16 to a 350 FPS AK47 and now maybe a 380 FPS Special Edition Battle Rifle.

If I where you if you want to get a sniper rifle I would get a Well L96 warrior I. These will shoot around 490fps with 0.2g bb's. and around 430-450fps with 0.25g and around 70-80metres. Also it is very cheap.
Also I would try get a http://www.rsov.com/product/105_142_143/1690/p_JG-Jing-Gong-Thunder-Maul-mid-range-AEG-6627.html as it will probably be better as it is a exact TM clone.

Before I moved to Pittsburgh me and my friend played airsoft all the time. I had just a crappy pistol, but it was still really fun. We played in the forest near our houses.
