Hi guys, I have just got myself an airsoft gas powered BB gun . I never had one as a kid and had a go on a friends and really enjoyed it. I'm surprised at how accurate they are.

I have a sig 226 with blow back.

I was just wondering if anyone else on here has any and just asking for tips on the best places to order stuff and where to go legally shoot.

I have looked online and can only find limitations of having permission on private property and 15m away from public paths roads ect.

I'm sure I will get bored eventually and give it to my nephews lol

Just having a mid life crisis maybe?
 
Got a Cyma glock. Nice little unit, no blow back. Been buying BB's from sites on ebay mostly, stick to polished ones and generally the higher weight .20 ones. Think it's bulldog ones that I've been getting. Little dearer but better for the gun. With regards to where you can shoot I'm not sure. Been using mine at the warehouse where I work. The worst shot has to buy the mcdonalds on Friday.
Fun, not sure how long I'll play with it for though.
 
Just bought 3 airlift guns from the market whilst we were on holiday.

Got my two lads one each and treated myself to a more expensive one lol.

Love it, like being a kid all over again.

Mine was only a 25 quid colt 45 replica, and it doesn't shoot where you want it to (lightweight shot/misaligned barrel) but it's got me wanting something more substantial.

Guy I bought it from has one that cost 400 quid :O
 
I was up my local car boot a fortnight ago, there was a huge stall selling airsoft, crossbows, knives etc;
The thing that got me was that none of them were 2 tone, they all looked authentic. I queried one of the guys' as to needing some sort of membership to purchase them, he replied "it's alright we have a licence to sell them???"
The sniper rifles looked great.
 
I'm nearly 40 years old.. mid life crises definitely..

As I kid I had a TM Steyr early gas pistol (which I still have)
In the last 5 years I purchased a second hand Cyma Glock 17 AEP and converted it to LiPo battery
I also purchased a Steyr Aug A2 (Civilian) and added some kinda front rail kit which makes it look very similiar to the A3.
Having these gas/electric weapons is all very well but not exactly instant if you need to shoot the neighbours cat (joking) so I also got a cheap tri-shot shotgun which looks the part.

I've never been airsofting, but I really want to start... Problem is there isn't any nearby, so not much I can really do at the minute :-(
 
I broke mine last week. I pressed the clip release by accident and the mag broke on the patio. Whoops I'll have to get another . I'm quiet happy in my dads back garden , there is plenty of room and I'm not bothering anyone.
 
my bro is big into it... spent a lot of stuff... i've only been out and playing a couple of times...

know some of his mates who run an airsoft shop etc.... doing well
 
Gimme air rifles any day.. many years ago when i was about 10 years old me my brother and a couple of his mates used to play comandos with air rifles i had a 26 shot paratrooper .22.. a bsa meteor .22 and a gat my brother had a bavarian make .177 a cross bow 150lbs strain and a pistol type cross bow.. very rare we got caught by the others maybe we were like rambos to them lol

sent from 2 tin cans and some string
 
I had an AUG HBAR alongside a M4A1 with a 9m baretta as my side arm. Airsofting is only so good til you wear a half mask and get shot in the face.
