Green Gas

MP5 RAS · July 29th, 2005, 01:56

Hey i'm lookin to get into airsoft, I already got a cheap EEB pistol but know thats pretty useless. So I was thinking on picking up a GBB pistol as I don't quite have the cash for an AEG yet. But my question is- how long does a can of gas last? If you need to know i'm thinking of picking up a TM Tactical Master.

buy a propain adapter for like 30 bucks, then you wont have to worrie about gas (its like 3 bucks a bottle and that will last a long time)

I second that. You won't really get a feel for the sport if you buy a GBB first.

Why is it that most if not all newb's want a gbb as there first gun? They really aren’t all that great in term's if you don't have anything else to play with. Unless you have a shit load of mags (more than 10) then you could consider one. But then again any gbb + 10 mag's would be well over the cost of what it would cost to buy a decent aeg.

So yeah....buy a aeg first, don't modify it at all in terms of heightening the fps. That way you will be safe if you shoot someone with it at very close range on semi auto, and get some low and high caps.

Then your set

Just out of curiosity, how much are you willing to spend on your first gun?....you may be suppressed that there are some good age’s kicking around that are relatively cheap.

hey MP5, try looking in the aeg selling section...you might have to get verified first though...

what i am suggesting is to start off with a used aeg (since cash flow is a factor) and a high cap mag...anyway airsoft guns have a good resale value if you ever decide that you have enough $$$ to buy a new one...you can sell the used one once again

The MP5 A5 would be a good gun for you because it has a sliding stock, making it ajustible from being a very short gun to a decient sized gun (so if you like small guns then you could just slide the stock in)....however though with the MP5 A5, it takes a smaller type battery, which means you would have to buy 2 or 3 extra batteries to get you through a whole day of playing.

The MP5 A4 would be better in terms that it takes a large battery so you would only need one to get you through a day of playing. But then it doesnt have and ajustable stock so you stuck with the one size.

With airsoft there's so many options, so you just have to pick and choose. I would recoment a mp5 as a beginners gun (it's what I had and there very easy to mod and get parts for)
