Personally, I hate the term 'beginner gun'. I think what would be more appropriate here is 'Budget gun'.

A beginner gun in my eyes is something that is a good investment, something thats worthwhile. I hate to be a broken ASC record here but getting Age verified is the best option for you. In the classifieds here, people are selling great guns for good prices, and hell, you can buy new too.

Just take the time and save up more for your first gun. You don't need it right at the very moment, winter is coming and there will be a period of non use. Why not just spend the winter working, save money and actually spend good money on good things? That being said, if you're not happy with the purchase, resale value on good guns really applies here.

Buy a G&G Crapsoft, little to no resale value, what you put up for it is outmatched by other things on the classifieds, people will just ignore it.

If 250 is strictly your budget, verification is seriously the way to go, it opens up choices for that price range that outdoes any option you have without it.

ask yourself this, "how long do I tend to be in this sport"? If you're gonna be playing for awhile and running hard, wouldn't you want something to last so you don't have to buy new parts or gun every year? (if it even last that long) If you're just gonna be around for a few months, buy which ever gun you like and have the budget for. Think in long terms.

Thanks guys youve convinced me my guns a piece of shit. I would keep if were not fro the fact that i cant put a Tactical kit on it. Luckily the SRC ak comes w/ one so im good with that. Still i have no prob with G&G i think there still good. Like i said only reason of getting rid of it is compatibility.

Cyma are better. I have an AK74U and a AK 105 and they are ''tanks''
Never even opened up my 74u in 1 1/2 year of playing... not even to regreased it. It's an experiment I'm on to see how long it will fare without care.

Sounds like another attempt at bypassing AV.

Or maybe he has a reason. I don't think anyone actually expects to get around AV who has been on the board for more then a day, lol.

Thanks for this thread! I was also considering G&G and heard a lot of conflicting opinions on them. Now I understand why!

To insult the staff that did it is probably not the best way to go about getting it removed :P It's a funny title, to be honest. Learn to laugh at yourself and what you've learned and keep that little bit of embarrassment as a lesson.

Regarding the original post, G&G seem to be pretty hit and miss. That's one of the main reasons that I personally wouldn't buy one. Reliability should be one of the first things you look at when purchasing an airsoft gun (or pretty much anything else that will put you back more than a hundred bucks). Something that will last and perform well. That's one of the reasons TM is so popular, if something breaks the parts are available much easier than proprietary parts that other companies use. There are some amazing deals in the classifieds, I know you're not old enough to get AV'd and that's okay. Just do what I (and lots of other members) did: wait until you're old enough to make a serious investment. Most of the FAQs will tell you that you should expect to spend about a grand to get into the sport and from what I've seen that's a pretty reasonable estimation. If you've already got a cheap gun just use it until you're 18 and have some cash saved up for something nice.

Do you have to troll me on every thread? No im not going to bypass AV. Im going to wait like everybody else. There are sites out there that you can buy guns off of without being AVed on ASC, but i think your smarter then that, aren't you? Stop Trolling me!

I think it insults my intelligence. Thats why i want it removed. I don't need to ask the certain someone to get it removed, theres other sensible mods on this forum.
