Airsoft Guns

Some friends and I decided that this spring/summer we wanted to mess around with some airsoft guns in the woods near our houses.  So after many hours of research and ninety dollars latter here is what I got.  

I decided to get two because rifle is electric and I figured it would really suck to be stuck without anything if the battery crapped out.

Here is the sidearm I decided on.  It's not that great quality(made entirely of plastic) however it shoots a about forty feet accurately and holds twelve bbs in the clip which, might seem like a small amount, works for me because hopefully I will not have to use it that much.  

  
 And now for my favorite.  Lets start with the body.  Unfortunately most of the rifle is not metal however very little is plastic and it is metal in the places that count, such as the trigger, trigger guard and hop up.  The magazine is nicely sized and holds around 250 bbs, however that does not mean it is able to shoot 250 bbs in a row.  Instead the magazine requires you to wind a gear located on the bottom that pushes the bbs into the firing mechanism.  When this thing does fire it doesn't mess around.  On average the bbs come out going about 340 fps and travel 150-200 feet before dropping.  Best part is that it has full auto and semi-auto mode  either of which is extremely fun.

  1. Reminds me of my buddies and I. We usually go out to this huge field that we kind of made into our own. We've got hideouts and shit. Towers, small buildings. Lots of brush. It's pretty fun playing in the summer, but it turns into a swamp in the fall and winter. Fucken' Washington weather..

  3. I love airsoft, and this was an interesting post to read. I bought a shotgun and a pistol and I was satisfied. I don't play all that much because the weather hasn't been too nice. But this summer I'm probably going to play a lot with my friends. Cheers!
