What is the best type of AEG Airsoft gun for me?
I have done a lot of personal research in this field to try and find an airsoft gun that was well built and affordable. For a long time I swore by Echo 1 and JG because even their metal guns remained affordable. However, that all changed when I stumbled upon the DBoy AK74. When I heard about this gun I thought ti was too good to be true. It is all metal, has real wood (or you can skip the wood and save $10) and it assembled really tightly so that it feels solid like a real gun. It come with a battery and charger and it's 7mm gear box cranks out the BBs at 400FPS without breaking a sweat. The gun I was using before this was an Echo1 MP5 full metal. I bought it because it was full metal and shot over 400FPS. This gun, although fully metal, still had creeks and wobbles and I was afraid that it could break. The gear box sounded like they attached a hammer to the inside that banged against the internals foretelling it's inevitable self destruction. When I saw the Dboy I sold my MP5 as fast as I could and bought it, this was the best choice I have made. This gun comes in a couple different types. You can get the U which is a short version good for CQB. You can get the long version with real wood or metal both with folding stocks. All of these are available at the lowest price I have seen anywhere at Airsoftmegastore.com. Some people may say that this is a bad site but I think that is because they think that low prices and good service can not come in the same package. I have used this site several times with out any problems. They did send me a broken clip with my MP5 but they replaced it with out any hassle. As I said I have looked all over for the best gun under $200 and this is it. If you want durability, accuracy, power, RPM, battery life and versatility this is the gun to get. Also, be aware that once you spend so much at Airsoftmegastore they will give free shipping.
You have 3 general(sufficient) types of guns for <$100.Spring shotguns. ~$50, you'll need more shells and a speedloader to be effective so expect to spend ~$70. I have used 2 thus far and both are efficient killing machines, one Tri shot and one Single. I would recommend buying one because short of physically breaking them, they are highly reliable. ASG Licensed Franchi SPAS 12 Style Tri-Shot Full Size Airsoft ShotgunSpring Sniper. ~$80, I would not recommend this. You will not have as much fun, they are long and awkward for any mid or close range combat. Unless you can sink money in further down the road like Novristch (YouTube him) I wouldn't venture on this path.Lancer Tactical. Almost all their guns are $100. They will work. You won't have the best ROF, accuracy, or anything. But it will be good enough to get out and shoot. You can drop in new motors and barrels and they actually become decent as well. I have with 2 LT M4’s and they are still kicking. Lancer Tactical M4 Crane Airsoft AEG Rifle (Color: Black)My LT is second from the bottom.There ya go, 3 general types of guns for beginners sub $100.
When an airsoft gun says that it is spring action, does it mean that you have to cock it back every time?

Nice question! I would ask your parents or other people who would know about the legality of such things (such as fellow airsofters) who live in the area. Maybe even email or message the local police department. For many cities, it is illegal to shoot “weapons” inside city limits. This ranges from guns to bows and arrows. However, I’m not quite sure about airsoft weapons. I think that . it would be much more likely that they would be allowed, but check in with someone just to make sure. Good luck!I do have a bit of an edit. You might want to check this website out. Washington State Airsoft Gun LawsSo… it does say that you can only use the airsoft weapons in designated areas, and are not permitted in public areas. This raises the question: would my backyard be considered a “designated area”? I think it is as long as it is “closed off” and doesn’t disturb anybody else. Again, you should probably do more research just to be safe.
Honestly, they’re all the same. Any brand of airsoft green gas is suitable for airsoft gas powered weapons.In terms of the best to buy, the answer is propane. Hear me out… Green gas is quite literally propane pre-mixed with silicone oil, with a pine-like scent and inflated premium price.If you only need 1 can of green gas and never plan to purchase anymore, go to your local airsoft shop and buy the first can of green gas you see. If this is more long-term, invest in a propane adapter and a couple ounces of siliconw oil from your local airsoft shop or online store. Depending on the style and design you’ll spend anywhere from $10 to $35. This should Next, go to a local sporting goods store and pick up a small canister of propane, such as what you’d normally take camping. This should run you less than $5. If you’re on a budget, you can get this all done for about $17.Here’s the kicker, the amount of gas in a propane tank is monstrously more than you get in a can of green gas. On top of that, the adapter can be re-used. Meaning the day you run low on propane, you spend $5 (if not less) for another tank. From experience, I can go 6–8 months on a single tank of propane. Bear in mind this was when ALL my weapons and magazines were gas powered, not just my pistol, and I was being the nice guy, allowing friends to use my tank to fill their mags.Personally, I tend to opt for plastic adapters for one simple reason. Should I slip while filling a magazine, I’ll damage/break a $10 propane adapter instead of a $25+ magazine.Alternatively, you can use simple propane and manually lubricate your gun instead of adding the silicone to the adapter.ADDENDUM:If your field does not allow the use of propane, you can literally grab any can of green gas. As stated in the opening lines of this answer, green gas is green gas is green gas.
Just what is the mark up on gun safes?
like all other merchandise, typically 3% (clearance) 7% (sale) and 15% regular price. markup from what they can get form the supplier. more expensive stores may either markup more or they have more middlemen between the manufacturer and retailer. typically the manufacture cost/sale is 30% of what it costs at the local gun store. so say the coast $80 to make and they sell it at $100. before it gets to a store near there's countless shipping, and typically 3 middlemen in between manufacturer and you local gun store. those 3 middlemen each take a little cut, increasing the cost of the safe. by the time it gets to your local gun store the price has tripled to $300. you cna save money if you cut out the middlemen and get it cheap from a wholesaler. typically a $100 safe will cost you $135-$150. now sometimes safes are sold below the MSRP - like that $89 safe you saw. that is due to the store made an investment on that safe, they need to move merchandise or they'll loose money. they'd rather sell it at a ridiculous low price and lose a few hundred bucks than loose than thousand + a day per day that safe is in their store.
Assuming you’re not a dealer, there probably isn’t one.Since 1986, the manufacture and/or import of fully automatic weapons for civilian usage has been strictly prohibited. That leaves only the limited (and shrinking) pool of pre-86 automatics in circulation at ever increasing prices.
