pistols survey

[Barrett]

well, me (16 play stock class paintball\shot and airsoft m4), my cousin (18 ) and my brother (13 very mature) would all like to get some airsoft GBB's for our cottage. we are each have enough money to purchase a pistol, mags, bbs, and gas but are all pritty stuck on which guns to get. i personally have read countless reviews and have narrowed it down to 4 guns:
1. ksc glock 19 hw
2. tm desert eagle hardkick (just worried about it fitting my hand)
3. tm sig 226
4. ksc glock 34
Any advise would be helpful, the area we would be playing on is pritty rocky so the key features of the gun would be durablity\reliability and accuracy at 50-60 feet.

other guns we area looking at is the ksc beretta m9 hw full metal, Maruzen P99, ksc glock 17

If the area is pretty rocky, dropping ANY plastic airsoft will more-than-likely break or crack at the least.

I'd say go with the Glock 19 HW

But personally since you guys are playing at a cottage and not going gaming, why not save alot of money and buy Canadian Tire Soft-Air pistols if your just going to have fun. Springers would do also. Youll have more fun that way by not worring about breaking a 300 dollar GBB, you could buy another cheap gun instead.

You could always get a full metal KJW M9, it most likely would have a less chance of breaking if dropped. Plus its the same price as most of those listed.

you know what, conscript is right. if your just putting around buy those soft air guns from can tire, A friend of mine bought one and painted it flat black and used it in a game with us. i didnt even notice untill i looked closley and noticed it wasnt a glock 23, great beginner gun if your finaces decide and they are durable, we cronied it and it was doing about 125 i belive so pretty much perfect for playing for fun.

[Rumpel Felt]

If you want durable, extremely realistic guns look into KJW guns. They are all full metal, very powerful and accurate and the mags don't leak period and come with high flow valves. Since you are at a cottage, you will probably have alot of propane around and can take advantage of that by picking up some propane adaptors and save a load on gas. ALL KJW guns are pretty much propane only.

thanks for you suggestion guys they are very helpful, the only thing im worried about cheaper guns is that i dont think that they have the range. when we played paintball (not allowed cuz it made a mess) most of our shooting took place in the 50-80ft range, im just worried these guns might not be strong enough for this, plus my older cousin and i are thinking of attending a few games this summerand would like to have a gbb ot use.

Please check the age requirements.

[Barrett]

my dad is willing to buy them for us. (with our money i mean)

I have a KWA Glock 19, TM chrome Desert Eagle (hardkick). The KWA glock comes with a metal barrel and metal slide right out of the box. It's a pretty good price for what you get. The DE doesn't come with a metal slide but I haven't cracked it yet and I've only used propane in it. My next is going to be a KJW M9. Oh you were worried about the DE fitting your hand. The eagle is a big gun, if you have small hands, this gun might not be for you.

[Greylocks]

Buying is one thing, do you have a field where you can legally play? The 18 year old can play anywhere, the 13 one... almost no way. You? Depends. Check with your local fields before you spend a LOT of cash on something you cant really use.

[Barrett]

for starters we would play mostly at my cottage but my cousin and i would to eventually get into open airsoft games at some point

oh ya thanks guys for all your help, me and my bro are gettin glock 19 and my cousin is either gonna go for the sig 226 or the desert eagle hardkick
