Official Airsoft discussion Megathread

The CA sportline would be a good choice, I'm pretty sure the Echo1 P90 is just a KS rebrand but, it'd still be better than getting the KS version.
If you do get to a P90, I'd advise getting the box mag so that you'll be able to use M4 mags. P90 mid-caps cost $15 and only hold 68rds,  I haven't been able to find a box set of them either. MOLLE pouches for them are also $15 and only hold one mag.

As for the R4, it shoots a fairly low FPS but, it's inexpensive and magazines are very easy to get for it,  I'm also sure that mags for it fit in Mp5 and I think M4 mag pouches, not entirely sure though. I'd consider it an AEP and I'd only use it as a sidearm..

Edit: Trinityairsoft has some P90 Mag pouches that are capable of holding two mags, they also attach to your belt/leg/other places.

Gets around 350 FPS and I haven't really measured it's rate of fire. I don't know weather to stick with the box clip or buy a circular one; though.

420 FPS is mine, no circuluar clips.  The only is the type writer, but it wont fit.

Are any of you actually using a chrono or just estimating/reading off website?
Websites are somewhat inaccurate and estimating is impossible, chrono or gtfo.

The AEG I have isn't the best, but it's better than anything from Wal-Mart.

Comparision thing is terrible.  They are only using the correct spot for multicam.  The comparison was developed by idiots.

Not really, it's just that Multicam is better than woodland and pretty much any other pattern when playing in a forest area, even if the pictures did show woodland in a "woodland" Multicam would still look better.

Multicam was going to be the offical pattern for the US Army but, it lost to ACU.

As you can see at the bottom of the first post, Multicam has a a wider variety of colors compared to woodland, this makes blending in with different environments easier.

Also: The human eye has trouble picking up a more complex patterns, which makes Multicam even more effective and, is the reason ACU was chosen over Multicam.

I prefer woodland over that digital design.

Also, Don't think you can buy a $80 crossman from richards sporting goods and expect to own in a real airsoft arena. If you are really going to try and play, look forward to spending somewhere from $150 for a decent gun that won't break the day you get it.

Woodland is cheap and easy to find which is why alot of people use it, Multicam is more expensive but is well worth it.
Alot of people also use ACU in my area, I live in Nevada though so, alot of people also use Desert MARPAT and some other desert patterns.

I've got OD Pants, Woodland BDUs, and I'm going to get some ACU soonish.

I was just in my english class and it turns out that almost every boy plays airsoft.

But anyways, I have a colapsible Mp5 , a Metal Desert Eagle. My brother and I share an awesome fully metal ak47, My bro use's either a fully auto , full metal, huge and painful m16 or he carries a Shotgun and C02 pistol.

Also Airsplat is ok, just dont buy everything there.

No one's actually ever showed up to a game with a crossman gun here in Vegas.

I'd lol if someone did though.

You see son.
Seeing someone hurt i very entertaining for you, until you get hurt.
Then you wanna hurt them some more.

Paintball, anyone?

In Australia, it is illegal to get Airsoft guns imported or sent through mail yet somehow, I bought a snazzy Steyer AUG. Not sure on it's statistics but I'm pretty sure its spring loaded. Its fun to play with but I have hardly anyone too play with. Once me and some friends brought our guns to school because we needed them for a drama performance. After the performance it was pitch black around the school. So we had a shootout! Then got in trouble from our principal...
