Step 2: GUNS

okay the next step is guns!!! the most important part, Your gun is your
life line you don't buy a good enough gun... you lose!!!

you don't take care of it... you lose!!!

if you want a realy good AEG, you will need to spend at least 150 dollars. anything under that mostlikly will not be a very good gun.

here are some brands to look into.
ICS
echo1
Tokyo Marui
KSC
Classic army
G&G
King Arms
Systema



so with that said, here are some good airsoft sites.

www.Kapowwe.com (highly recomended)

www.airsoftgi.com

www.airsplat.com

www.shortyusa.com


these are the sites that I have dealt with and www.kapowwe.com is by far the best...

what happened to tokyo marui?
davison112 says: Mar 7, 2011. 1:43 PM
I somewhat custom built my gun.

I noticed my M4 (walmart gun) was broken, so i took it apart to see if i could fix it. After taking the barrel apart, I though i could put it on the end of my stinger R39. Now i have an awesome gun in which i duct tape my Stunt Squad Spas-12 to the bottom of. All around (minus spas-12) 60$, the m4 came with a pistol too.

KNEXFRANTIC says: Aug 10, 2010. 12:26 PM
you missed out cybergun wich has the best
Akairsofters1 says: Nov 9, 2010. 9:12 PM
Cybergun is one of the WORST gunmakers in the world becides the KWC Guns But everything else made by CyberGun is the WORST
KNEXFRANTIC says: Nov 13, 2010. 12:48 PM
i just like them thats all just opinion not fact cyma prety cool though
Akairsofters1 says: Nov 9, 2010. 9:14 PM
im getting a TM Desert Eagle HARD KICK =D
airsoft1017 says: Mar 24, 2010. 5:58 PM
your missing some brands like...
H&k
Aftermath (my fav!!! Got the kirinex)
CYMA(OK)
TSD
Colt
DPMS
you get the point
just search airsoft brands to get some more :) Good job by the way
TechnoGeek95 says: Mar 31, 2010. 5:14 PM
 You do realize H&K, DPMS, and Colt aren't airsoft companies, right? Guns with those naming are manufactured by a seperate company, like KWA, and licensed by H&K,DPMS, or Colt. Also, no offense but Aftermath isn't that good. TSD's are mostly re-brands. CYMA is ACM but has exponentially improved over the past couple years. I would stick with HK or Japanese companies. 
airsoft1017 says: Apr 1, 2010. 8:33 AM

I know that the aftermath krakenis a re-manufactured cyma Ak and that cyma are only re-manufactued from yet another company and that H&K, DPMS, and are made by kwa and then licenced but i was just pointing out the NAMES not just the manufactering companies. by the way aftermath is what police and inssuficcent spec-ops groups train with instead of using simunition whitch is only offered to military and elite law enforcemant for traing

TechnoGeek95 says: Apr 1, 2010. 4:39 PM
 CYMA's aren't rebranded. They're just made in China factories. And for simulation training, police officers and the like use Systema PTW's.
airsoft1017 says: Apr 1, 2010. 4:51 PM
acttuly if you want to know that police also train with aftermath heres the proof...

and press the play button
TechnoGeek95 says: Apr 1, 2010. 5:11 PM
 That's only one place. Most training facilities with a higher budget like to use Systema PTWs because of their realistic features. PTWs simulate a real rifle's bolt. They won't dry-fire and you actually have to use the bolt catch, forward assist, and charging handle.
predatory meatball says: Jul 17, 2010. 9:54 PM
its cool, except if you havent noticd, SYSTEMA aeg´s ar $1,500 so thats a start... and aftermath is a prety decent company... its not realy heard much from, but they know what theyre doing
TechnoGeek95 says: Jul 18, 2010. 10:18 AM
They have money. They can afford to train their officers with the top of the top. But why would they use Aftermath? It doesn't offer any other advantages to simulate a RS gun, such as the bolt catch, forward assist, and charging handle. In that case, they might as well us CYMAs, KWAs, G&Gs, etc.
predatory meatball says: Jul 19, 2010. 10:29 PM
your right... aftermath is about as good a regular AEG... but theyr old models are strong, acurate and fast... theyr certainly not a bad company (classic army is still the best AFORDABLE brand)
airsoft1017 says: Apr 1, 2010. 5:26 PM
wow thats cool
lord0fh0n0r says: Aug 22, 2008. 7:09 AM

Can you recamend any canadian websites so us canadians don't have to deal with the dang border
cbrown222 says: Dec 7, 2008. 5:24 AM
airsoft station dot com has international shipping but i dont think they can ship gas guns to canada
CombatController66 says: Aug 26, 2009. 4:40 PM
Dude, you're on crack, you don't have to have a very good gun to win, I used a spring powered pistol that was 200 FPS and my friend had the same thing and it was him and me V.S. 10 people with M4's, 400 FPS and we won, so don't even say you'll lose, maybe its just you cause..... you suck propbably.
