hello people of the airsoft community,

i was just wondering ( for a beginner ) i fthe Classic Army M4A1 springer ( seen on www.007airsoft.com ) would be good for me, what im looking for in a first gun is more aa compact sniper rifle, soo i seen that this gun is a springer and that its a M4A1 wich is a relitivley small rifle? so with a good scope would it be worth my 100$ to buy that gun?

thanx for your time

no
god no

springer rifles(that are not sniper rifles) suck ballz

sniper may sound cool, and everyone wants to be a sniper at first...because its cool...but really, you see very little action, the power restrictions really dont give you much range/accuracy advantage over your avergae gun.

start with an AEG...and no, they are not cheap...Airsoft is going to require atleast $600 to $1000...
Sniping isnt cheap either. There is a reason some of these guys have sniper rifles running around $1000.

BUT

seeing as you are 13, you are far to young for airsoft...3 years before a field will even consider allowing you on the property and 5 years before you can buy a gun.

phew, i saw it and i jumped on it...i panicked there in the middle, wasnt sure if I could make it to the finnish line. I cramped up near the 2/3 mark but I powered through the pain. I needed to splash gatorade all over my face just to hit the submit button.

yea droc is right being a sniper isn`t all that fun it may sound cool but not so fun but if you are the kind of person who likes to work alone its a good task then but as far as getting a springer m4a1 there fun indoors if you can find an arena that will allow you play in

I can only pitty da foo that takes a single shot M4 into an indoor arena. Thats where a 900 rounds per minuit AEG comes in handy.

cudos droc, cudos.

edit ~ dont you have to be approved to be a sniper nowa days? correct me if im wronge, but from what i ubderstood from sniperchicks post is that you need to attend a course to prove that you qualify to be a sniper, which i think is a great idea imo.

im talking about springer matches for kids under the age of 16 who aren`t allowed to buy the more expensive guns yet there are a few places where im from where you can do springer matches

Would one of these places be perhaps your mother's basement?

I hear the CA springer has reliability issues... but at only 20$ more than the CT M4, it's a good buy for a beginner in Canada. Plus the finish is supposedly nice, so when it does break, it will make a nice wallhanger.

It's not a question of what works anymore, it's a question of legality. What IS it with the latest crop of 13 year old kids who want to break laws?

no, thats just for their own little thing and aside from maby 1 field, has no weight behind it. I have voiced my oppinions on how I think its a [insert ofensive insult here] waste of time. These special "certified" training courses are a joke. But Im not gonna debate that here, its their thing and it works for them.
