The airgun thread

Hey, nice sig. Would go well with that pic of a Stormtrooper in a Lotus.

I liked the Return of the Jedi forest stormtrooper on the bike. I've always wanted to go karting with a gorilla suit on.

SVTong, do they sell a semi-auto variant of the P90 in Canada? Or are you just a fan of it?

There are a couple of PS90s in Canada, but they are few and far between. I'm just a huge fan of a compact submachinegun that can penetrate body armour

I'm also an airsofter, and the P90 was my first gun.

[CanadianGTR]

Nice. Back in the day I had a KSC Glock 19 with metal slide and upgraded spring. Ran that thing on propane/silicone (for the seals) and man it felt good.

Then my little brother cracked the body and I haven't cared enough to get another one.

I'm not into airsoft, paintball is much more mainstream in BC.

I do have a BB gun though, semi-auto, 480fps pistol.

[SVTong]

I run a Tokyo Marui Sig P226 for my pistol. Metal slide, upgraded recoil spring, high-flow valves, stainless outer barrel and spring guide, and Dytac night sights.

My main rifle is a VFC SCAR-L with the EGLM grenade launcher. Soon-to-be full systema internals.

I have too many expensive hobbies..... ops:

[RHDskyline]

sounds like it.

every couple of months i say "i am going to get into airsoft" and i spend the entire day watching youtube reviews and airsoft fights, visiting websites that sell them, checking out equipment.

But i end up doing nothing about it. I guess its probably a good thing since it would save me money

EDIT: Awe shlt, i think its one of those days, thanks man :x

[QuietChaos]

Damn, this guy's hardcore. I'm happy with my Wal-Mart laser/sight combo.:-P

Hey, if you're going to do something, do it right!

My advice for anyone wanting to try airsoft is to lurk around Airsoftcanada.com for a while. There's a lot of guys there who know a lot of stuff. And the classifieds there are cheaper than retailers.

Here's a shot of me and some of my teammates (I'm the skinny guy scratching his neck)

[QuietChaos]

Do you guys play indoors? Is that a rented building or something?

[RHDskyline]

that looks sick. all the gear and stuff. You definitely need honest people to play with. All i have is the Wal-mart one too. i have to load it each freakin time LOL. I want to get one of those eotech scopes or whatever they are called

[QuietChaos]

:-P Haha, spring, even worse than my CO2 pistol. For airsoft games, it's pretty much AEG or nothing.

[SVTong]

It's a local warehouse that we have to set up with tarps and barricades when we use it. We only play there in the winter, and outdoors in the summer.

A lot of people use the Eotech sights. You just have to worry about the front lens getting shot out b/c they're so big.

All of that gear costs a small fortune, tho. I've got very little gear compared to some others, and I've spent Thousands(!) on it.

[RHDskyline]

Boys and Our Toys. Everything cost so much. It doesn't seem like much when you start out but after you reflect upon your spending it ads up.

I have pretty much given up on all hobbies. I am trying to save all my money for a Skyline

[SVTong]

Good plan. I've only had mine for a short while, but it's well worth it.

Now the only problem is that the trunk isn't big enough for all of my airsoft gear

[RHDskyline]

you said you didn't have much
