Honestly, don't get a sniper. It's not the same thing as in video games.

Gas Blowback USP, Midcap Mags, Sling, Gloves, Helmet. Anyone want pictures :P?

Bump. Some stuff happening in the airsoft world.

CA just came out with the Sportline version of their P90, it's first P90 that actually has a good red dot.
SHOT show just passed and with it alot of new announcements, crossman are stepping up their game and coming out with an all new line of guns.
KWA coming out with an MK23 later on this year, new polymer barrel that is designed to fix the slide catch problems with their previous guns.
Magpul PTS ACR slated for March with a $450 dollar MSRP, G&P version coming also.
stuff load of new WE GBB pistols.
Possibly an Echo 1 Intervention and some other new Echo 1 guns.
More things but, you'll have to find those out your self.

Keep the thread alive this time.

Mmkay, I will. I was playing ping-pong and my dad came down the stairs and starting shooting my legs. He shot me in one spot so I flinched and missed the pingpong ball, he made me lose... not to mention he was shooting point blank. Later on though I switched it to automatic and decimated his arse :3

And also, my sniper with heavier bbs is epic. My next gun is most definitely going to be an automatic gun, maybe a p90...
Hey chasy, you know of any good p90 airsoft guns? I love the way it loads, with the top clip thingy

[chaseyqurt]

You're in luck, the P90 market has improved greatly.

P90 w/ Red Dot
P90 TR
If you get the TR you might want to get some sort of optic because, the ironsights kind of suck on P90s.
Midcaps

Mmm, thanks, but I just recently got my first gun, for 110 dollars. I don't think I'm that 'in' to airsoft enough to be spending 240 dollars. I don't even game yet either. Only backyard battles.

l
Para pistol 9mm, single shot, pretty good hit, capasity of 12, heres a copy thats not transparent.

[Efmu]

I also have a bb gun that can also shoot pellets. Got this baby off Daisy.

Sniper rifles are only good for when you have a down hill, high spot, anywhere you cant be seen good.
Heres Daisys website, they were actual the first ever in air guns.http://www.daisy.com/index.html

[chaseyqurt]

That's an M4 with an RIS, not a M16.

Your spending a lot of money on that there pistol :o

And also @ efmu, that big clip only holds 15 pellets?

[Thorax]

Anyone have any idea on how to build custom guns? I've gotten somewhat bored of airsoft, and building a gun would be a very fun way to get back into it. I want to make a semi-auto "rifle" with a large clip. I want it to have the accuracy of a sniper (more or less, I really just want it to shoot far without curving too badly), the clip of an assault rifle (At least 200 bb's), and powered by some form of gas.

I'm pretty sure google could help you out there. Now one thing google won't help me with is getting a definite answer on how to make my crosshairs on my scope not blurry. Some say I need to adjust the eye piece, others say I need a new lens, and some say I'm too close to my target.

From what I know, it's probably in the eye piece. try looking through the opposite end and see if it's blurry too. If not, than it has something to do with the eye piece. This, of course, is a total guess, and I'll ask my friend when I see him tomorrow as he is knowledgeable on these things.


Also, my custom gun won't be a sniper, so don't tell me that snipers suck. I know this. I'm just looking for something I can shoot long range, but if I get into a tight spot, I can shoot my way out without using a bolt. Also, it I probably need to have a rail to mount a scope on.

[chaseyqurt]

You can't really make a custom gun. It is impossible for you to make your own gear box which entirely rules out making a gun.
