pretty ironic but...

get age verified by a local age rep near you. You will then, and I assure you, have the full help from other members.

Well, you'll save yourself a wad of cash by getting verified and shopping in the classifieds instead. 007s stock is never very big, and most of what you get has to be ordered from overseas, meaning unless 007 have it in stock, you'll wait a long time to get your gun. You'll get guns much faster and much cheaper in the classifieds.

Welcome to ASC.

There is no bad AEG for a beginner. Now as an addendum to that statement that there is no bad AEG for a beginner I would just to add that cost in most cases equals quality.

This link is a link to a page that has some information in regards to picking your first AEG. I suggest you take sometime and read it.

http://www.airsoftcanada.com/showthread.php?t=253

Gun reviews can be found all over the internet, regardless which search engine you use, a different combination of search words can yield different searches. Let me keep it short and sweet, for the bulk of it, AEGS are simple motors that drive pistons that compress a spring to expel air to propel a BB down a barrel. How you want that set up to look is up to you. There are many brands of companies out there that make airsoft guns, how much you pay maybe relevant to the quality you receive.

Don’t forget to buy magazines for whatever gun you choose. High caps are ok, but well they rattle. Mid caps and low caps in my personal opinion are best.

Just so you know this website has a buy and sell section as well. However you have to be 18 or over to buy from it. This website has a process called age verification, where if you are 18 or older you can meet with a volunteer representative of this website who will meet with you in person, there is no way around this, no phone, no webcam, in person only, where they will require to see a legitimate piece of photo identification. After the process is completed, it can take sometime as this is all volunteer work, you will be granted access to this websites buy and sell section, where you can find both new and used guns, for fair and competitive prices. Although its not always the case, it is sort of an open market. Another bonus to getting age verifed is that you gain the ability to buy from a Canadian online retailer known as shoot soft. They offer good prices with a fair selection.

Cheers.

That was the short version. There is a long one, but since you stated that you have read a little of the faq, I felt I could omit some of what I usually post.

HOLD UP..

Doesn't anyone get the feeling this is a new account made by that "kitkiller121" tool? Go the other thread made by that account and check this thread ... very similar.
