play style? your hieght?
the m14 is quite the big gun
so is the m16 and the g36E

though rails and attachments are available for all
to be honest it comes down to personal taste and preference. I'm going with an AK

Height? Im about 6'0 or 6'1, about 185 - 190 lbs, im not a small kid by any means. As for playstyle, I like to switch it up and it depends on the environment I'm in. Although, I usually like the play agressive, getting to the flank. I don't mind going solo or with just a few teammates to take the entire enemy team from behind. In other words, I like being stealthy, well concealed but yet quick, swift, smooth, tactical and always on the attack.

I also greatly enjoy messing with the minds of opponents, making them completely paranoid as to where I am.

Fair enough, sounds good to me. I also like knowing what the entire enemy team is doing without them knowing im even there, I guess you could say I can play recon as well. Maybe an smg could work too? Like an mp5 or ump 45?

that thing sucks, really suck, even though it a token of your parents (no offense)
my neighbor had one, the spring version, he and i broke it within 2 week
the stock snapped off, the charging handle couldn't pull the "bolt" back, so it snapped off,
so hope you better get a good one and keep that as a display for how awesome your parents to get you this

Actually a buddy of mine has the spring version also, and he has had it for over 2 years without a hitch...hit or miss I guess! And I'd imagine I can get them to get me a good one for Christmas this year considering its the only thing I really want and they have no idea what to get me even though its awhile away yet lol!

Check out the SCAR-L. It should be what your looking for, I'd recommend a VFC SCAR-L, you can get longer or shorter barrels for different games (indoor or outdoor). It also comes with a gun case (which you'll need), and has an extend-able/folding stock, is M4 mag compatible, has lots of rails for accessories, and has a pretty good mechbox out of the box. Its a little pricey, but you get what you pay for. Get age verified, and you'll be able to find out where to buy them and how much they cost.

I never even thought of a scar! I love the look of that gun so much, has a desert type of look to it, and I like the desert gear so much more than any other gear....shame there is no desert-like environment here Oh well

Yeah, he has used it quite a bit, nearly every day. Its been through a lot and it still works perfectly fine. And good news! I sold my old bmx bike for over $100 so that goes towards my new gun fund....im 1/3 the way there!

Thank you! I'm also going to be selling my psp as I never use the thing anymore and I could get well over a hundred bucks for that because of the stuff I have for it. And im not trying to sell stuff to get money for the gun, its just coincidence haha!

If you want a nice sexy gun. I'd get an AUG. Same style as the FAMAS, but better. Depending if you want the A1, A2, or A3 you can put your own scope/sight on the A2s and 3s. Downside is that mags are bigger than most and harder to find and more expesive. TM or CA is the best, but they go for $600-$700. My friend uses a JG AUG and says no problems with it. Not sure how much those are worth.

As of right now, im leaning towards the m4, and ak mostly. With the g36 and mp5 following closely behind.

You can't go wrong with an AK. the weight is a sign of reliability. I've been using my dboys AK-74 and I've been nothing but impressed with it. Simple, easy to maintain, easy to get good mags, accurate, and solid as a rock. At $400 I think it's pretty damn good.
