Rhysieroo Posted May 31, 2014 Posted May 31, 2014 I'm sort of new to this whole airsoft ordeal and I was just wanting your opinions/suggestions for a starting gas pistol (2 Tone). The main use is just simply to mess around with friends in the fields or back garden practive, that sort of thing, not necessarily skirmish level. I would like to spend less than £50 but I can go slightly over (Note this is just the gun, not the pellets, gas etc) https://bbguns4less.co.uk/products/Blackviper-LS-M9-gas-blowback-pistol.html https://bbguns4less.co.uk/products/Crosman-C11-Gas-powered-co2--bb-gun-airsoft-pistol.html https://bbguns4less.co.uk/products/Taurus-24%7B47%7D7-CO2-Gas-Airsoft-Pistol-BB-gun.html http://www.justbbguns.co.uk/product/518/2-TONE-BB-PISTOLS/357/GAS-REVOLVERS/2195/HG132-REVOLVER Thanks for anyone who gives their opinions/suggestions.
Russe11 Posted May 31, 2014 Posted May 31, 2014 Do Not take one to fields or anywhere public. They are imitation firearms and that would be illegal and potentially dangerous. If you are under 18, it is illegal for you to buy one. two_zero and Airsoft_Mr B 2
Airsoft_Mr B Posted May 31, 2014 Posted May 31, 2014 I wouldn't recommend you buy from any site with 'bb guns' in the name. They are bad, especially JBBG. Don't take them anywhere public, that is a bad idea. two_zero 1
Rhysieroo Posted May 31, 2014 Author Posted May 31, 2014 Thanks, I'm aware of the UK laws and whatnot. The field I was commenting on is a private field thus that is nothing to be really concerned with in that aspect. Also, what sort of websites do you suggest or is it better to actually visit specialist airsoft shops?

Also, what sort of websites do you suggest or is it better to actually visit specialist airsoft shops?Personally I would say there are better sites to buy from in terms of customer service / quality but selection of cheaper guns isn't great on proper airsoft sites. Admittedly though, BB gun sites are good if you just want something from target practice. I just wouldn't buy anything £50+ because they overcharge for a lot of their stuff like their RIFs which you can buy cheaper elsewhere. There is just a lot of us here on the forums who don't like the 'BB gun' sites because they tend to make up things about their guns, delete any bad things you say about them and so on. Not to mention their bad service. That said I've honestly never had a problem with them in that respect (although I don't buy from them anymore for the above reasons) Most people would recommend you save up and buy a good starter rifle or pistol. I know you only want a cheap gun but a WE or KJW pistol / G&G Combat Machine would last longer / be more fun to shoot and be good at a skirmish if you wanted to do that.
dapprman Posted May 31, 2014 Posted May 31, 2014 On your budget you're probably better off looking in forums like here for second hand gear as pistols start ~£80 before two-toning. The el-cheapoes are bad economy most of the time as they don't last. Places to buy from include (not exclusively) http://www.proairsoftsupplies.co.uk/ http://www.landwarriorairsoft.com/ http://www.airsoftarmoury.co.uk/ .... There's also, in Europe http://www.taiwangun.com/ not sure if you'll have any problems shipping a two-tone from them over. Airsoft_Mr B 1
two_zero Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 Save up some more.. for an extra £20 you'll get a decent 2nd hand one rather than some junk off jbbg Airsoft_Mr B 1
