Re: Who likes Airsoft?

I tried airsoft, didnt like it though. I think its just waste of money. But if you like it, its your option.

Airsoft is 100 times cheeper than paint ball 100 paint balls are about £15, 5000 bb are £10

100 balls for £15?! Where do you buy your paint from?

Re: Who likes Airsoft?

Lets compare:

Vs.

Both from around the same range, except the second guy was shot only once, not 30 times.

Looks like the real "****" here, if you want to use that term, are the ones who run from the pain of Paintball.

Man up ^^ they are both great entertainment, the only differences being the brutality and price.

Re: Who likes Airsoft?

Kiz, first fo all, you linked to a 50$ airsoft.

Airsoft is more expensive if you play real airsoft, i agree, speedball aka paintball with airsoft weapons is fuckt, but milsim which is what airsoft is made for, is fucking epic and could never be done with paintball weapons.

Airsoft is all in all more expensive than paintball. Paintball got standart weapons, which isn't very espensive compared to REAL airsoft guns, scopes and such accessories.

My G18C with metal alide is 2500 DKK, + 700 DKK silencer, + 400 DKK flashlight. thats 3600 DKK, 1$ ~ 5,5 DKK.

My riffle isn't done yet, but its around the 5500 at the moment, so that will be 1000$ for the riffle alone, so some quick calculations tells me around 1500$ for the weapons, and don't get me started on the gear! that's evrything between $200 - $5000.

EDIT: Milsim = Military simulation.

My airsoft guns are full metal no chance of breaking like that
