SACair Forum

Hey Guys and Gals! The name is Hodge. I just bought a spring air rifle and pistol about 2 weeks ago, and have been shooting Sticky targets in the back yard. I only found out air soft was game after i started looking for more clips and different types of guns. I wanted to find air soft events locally and stumbled on this forum. It looks pretty cool. I look forward to attending an event soon. Any thing i should know before hand or any thing i should have? As i said i look forward to making this a new and exciting hobby. Thanks

Welcome, have fun, get used to the forums and get to know people. Come on out to the games and meet people. A Lot of us including me tend to be pricks on the site but are fairly cool and down to earth at games. I do recommend that you invest in an AEG (Auto Electric Gun) for our games seeing as almost all the member use those. Not saying you wont be able to play with a spring gun but it will be alot easier if you got a good AEG to use.

i agree RAP...welcome...

SHUT UP NOOB!!!!

Welcome. :x

Thanks for the Warm Welcome! As for AEG's i was looking into the Crosman Pulse R72 as a beginner gun. And eventually get an Aeg Version of my Spring M1a but that one is around $200. But i will be sure to hit up the For sale section. I look forward to meeting a lot of new people and learning alot. thanks again. Any one with any experience with the Crosman Pulse R72?

Stay away from Crossman. Look into TM, CA, and G&P guns for AEG's. KWA or TM for pistols.

sorry that was me :?

I was looking into Tokyo Marui MP5's is the "clone"made by them or some one else? As for Crossman are they not reliable for a beginner of just save the money? I'm not looking to Spend more than between $100-150 on an AEG. Any suggestions?

[quote="AdmiralAckbar"]Stay away from Crossman. Look into TM, CA, and G&P guns for AEG's. KWA or TM for pistols.[/quote] Wait wait wait. When did G&P internals get reliable? Not that I don't believe you but...

+1 on the Jg and A&K Those seem to be more in my price range. Thanks Guys!

Welcome to the boards.

I will Hopefully *Fingers Crossed* Be picking this up on Monday.

good man, Im glad you went for a CA rather than a clone.

everyone really seems to like these sportlines, but aren't they just the same clones with doubled qc?

True but i hear less bad things on em haha.

W3rd!! I heard way worse things about the clone M14 i was going to buy. Yeah it was cheaper but this was the best bang for my buck! And it was on sale. So im glad i jumped on it! See you guys at the next event and thanks again for the advice. Who knows what i would have ended up with :shock: !!

Just stay away from anything that Jonny made! Ha!

:wink:

Welcome, as far as things to bring I would reccomend

Powerbars, OJ, and an apple.

By the way, Stop Smoking is much more powerful then Columbia state community college and Hotel in taipei. But Lotensin and Group car insurance still very popular.
