God the spam level here.......

REAL paintball is the way to go, these airsoft things are for cheap wimps. Make sure its not windy when you shoot it, they will most likely hit you considering the go like 50 fps

I was exaggerating.......

They are cool becuase they look like guns but you cant acheive accuracy in wind or long ranges with a teeny plastic ball. Maybe the small paintballs they have, but they are just too small to amount to anything. I real paintball gun stays on path much longer and can hurt alot more.

True, overall Airsoft is more realistic. You wear camo instead of bright colored jerseys and your guns are supremeley realistic compared to the colored Sypder, what have you. Also Airsoft tends to be more for the older group (16-30) while painball is for younger crowds (7-15). Kids that young can truly fuck up your game. (Cheating, whatever)

I prefer the realism of airsoft. airsoft pellets are cheaper than paintball, although the initial guns are quite pricey. but well worth it.
my gun is multipurpose. its great for assault and cover, but i also carry a scope for times when my team needs sniper cover.
G3 SG1 btw.
I fitted uprated gears and a larger battery. It shoots like a dream cool: and alot harder than the stock g3 sg1. so people get a surprise when i hit them from a good distance.

[quote="Sargent_Scrotum":d9b8d][quote:d9b8d] I use a Kar98, it's pretty nice. It comes with shells that you put the pellet in at the top where the bullet would normally be, and once you fire the pellet out, pull the bolt and a shell comes out. It's how I humor myself when I'm bored.[/quote:d9b8d]
where did you buy it & how much was it? & do you like it? iv been looking at them & they look pretty cool.



this is what im planning on getting when i get the $$$. [url="http://www.airsoftdynamics.com/AEG_Thompsoninformation.htm"]http://www.airsoftdynamics.com/AEG_Thom ... mation.htm[/url][/quote:d9b8d]

I really want that Thompson! I also want a Colt .45 1911 model and a Luger, and possibly an M1 Garand or Carbine and a n MP40 airsoft gun. That is if they have those (I know they have a colt)
