If $600 is your limit for airsoft period then maybe you might want to consider one of the midgrade guns, G&G, G&P or ICS. That will allow you to get some other gear as well, namely mags, ammo, battery and charger and a chest rig or vest. If $600 is simply all you're willing to spend until you make sure you want to continue with the sport then go with a higrade gun and then buy the rest if you like the sport. That's what I did, then I fell in love with the sport (and the guns) and I'm over $2000 now, got an m4, an m203, an ak47, a gp-25, an mp5k, an m9 and a 1911 so far.

I don't know what guns you've been looking at, but G&P nor ICS are "mid grade." G&P is considered above CA and ICS is about on par for quality.
