You should wear eye protection for any target your shooting on. You would be surprised what a bb would bounce off of.

Actually I think NBBs wouldent be bad in a game as a sidearm, no unreliable blowback action to get in your way of killing :P

and stfu, just killing the thread now.

The kids shoot in the backyards in the states all the time. Although its fully legal as they are on private property with orange tips. Its not smart. So remember...just because you could doesn't mean you should!

Lithium... he's in the US, or did nobody notice that? If his parents are cool with it, and his local laws allow it, we cant do shit about it.

Between a handgun and a long gun; from the training point of view it is FAR easyer to learn to use a longer gun. That is a proven fact.
It's also cheaper in the long run to have an AEG. Gas guns are far more fun if they have blowback, but are more dependable as NBB for obvious reasons.

The UTG and other low priced AEGs available in the States debate; why not? If it does the trick and can be purchased down there at a decent price what's the problem?

If I was in the US, I'd go look at some of those guns myself as part of my research.

Do I agree that a kid that age should have a realistic looking gun that can get him shot dead by the police? No. But apparently his parents have made a choice otherwise.

End of problem.

Duelus? Best thing you could do is get on a US airsoft board instead of here; you'll get information that better matches the laws in your country.

I thought you were just generalizing w/ the "noobfest" comment, but after reading that site for a bit; holy crap you're bang-on.

No wonder we get so many US users...

That is quite possibly the worst airsoft forums I have ever seen. Every topic is an indulgence of stupidity. People asking if ICS is cheaper than Tokyo Marui... others saying how great their newest LPEG is. Teeming with morons.

i used to live in the US, and people are a lot better there about bringing this stuff into the public. no1 really cares unless u shoot their property. here if you bring out ur stuff into the public you'd be lucky not to get shot.

firemachine69 · February 8th, 2006, 01:50

I can finally understand why so many on the LF boards hate airsofters so much... sheesh. 8-O
