    That gun looks a bit weak (200 fps), I'd have a look around this site.....
    http://stores.ebay.com/eHobby-Asia-Airsoft-Supplier_AEG-Long-Rifle_W0QQcolZ4QQdirZ1QQfsubZ2QQftidZ2QQtZkm

    Most of the automatics on it pack the same punch, and that's the site most of us buy from, so you'd be on par with the rest of us if you buy from there. Plus it's great value! Someone else will recommend a gun for ye

    HRTA do have a number, although I don't have it. The owner of the site posts on here, his name is 'nonex', so if you see him, send him a private message or somethin. There's no age limited as far as I know (there were 13 or 14 year olds at the site last time and it wasn't a problem), as long as you're not like.... wearing nappies or anything :p

    Pop along on Saturday, you can rent a gun for quite cheap and see what the sport is like. Do you like near Swords in Dublin?

    dont settle on a gun untill you try a few out. pick a gun you like the look and feel of as most of them shoot about the same.

    Hi, welcome to the forum, I bought a gun similer to that for the same price when airsoft first got legalised to see if it would get through customs, it really isnt worth it as they are no real comparison to a proper airsoft gun, very low powered and incredibly inaccurate,the 200 fps is very optimistic, they come with thin paper targets which the bb's can bearly punch through. personly i would go to hrta this weekend and rent a gun for the day to see what they are like, you will also be able to see what other have and get a better idea b4 buying.

    Ps i'm a northsider

    hmmmm... perhaps we should have a northside vs southside game some day?
