Loadout Assistance

Hmmm, i use at minimum 4 pistol mags per game. Pistol use is great if your able to get where you need to use a pistol. If you just want to hang back and engage at maximum distance, and phony pony to all ends that nobody is calling hits, then don't use a pistol and sit back.

But if you like to get close, sneak into a building, and engage people without hurting them with your 400fps primary, then a pistol is the thing to do.

Going for a DMR role, or any role other than a support or bolt is worthless. A good tuned m4 can perform as well as a long barrel SR-25 or like. 400fps to 425 fps isn't going to make a big difference.

But here is the main thing. Don't follow anyone's advice, play, play some more, have fun, repeat what you did to have fun. Your going to end up getting multiple guns, selling and upgrading them, and you'll eventually find that what you like may be totally different than what everyone else likes.

I dont think anyone thought you were a scrub, the fact this isnt a what sniporz gun shud I buy thread was a good indication of that. A hybrid of an M4 and a DMR is really just a well tuned M4.
That is something we keep meantioning but doesnt seem to be hitting home. No gun out of the box is great. It takes time and money to tune your gun to your specific game style. I own 2 Claassic Army M4s, both perform well once I tuned them to their specific job. The first is a CA Sportline M4 modded for CQC, its short barreled and spits bbs out the front end at a good rate. The other is a CA M4 CASV, with a long inner barrel out the length of a suppressor. It can reach out more acurately than my cqc gun and is setup to acurately make longer shots. The do very diferent jobs but they both perform well. They could both perform much better if I wanted to invest more time and money, but they do their jobs so why bother.

Airsoft isn't an all in at once sport, it never has been. Even for the guys who have mass amounts of money lying around, there will always be anothe mag pouch you need, or a new gun comes out that looks better, or a new game style that you want to try, which will mean a new setup, a new load out, or something else. Its built into the sport like a drug. So I can apriciate the idea of having expendable,cash now and not having it later, but what you have and what you want is never going to be equal once you go,down the rabit hole.

As far as that CA you bought off the rich kid, are you sure it wasnt that he messed up the gun and sold it off for cheap? Maybe he screwed up the hopup and it wasnt shooting righ, or bent the inner barrel. There are a million things that could be wrong with a used gun and unless you know what you are doing and what makes the gun tick your going to be hard pressed to fix any problems that arise. My guess is its something thats easily fix able and no one who touched it knew how to fix it.

You gotta prioritize your spending, and new guns go to the top of the list! LOL

Just get a KWA ATP, and call it good. It'll probably never break on you, and if it does, it's fixable.

Or, you could do what I do, and have your outdoor gun running at just under 350fps. I get plenty of long-range kills with a properly adjusted hop-up, and a heavy-ish BB.
The real bonus is that I can engage tangos close up.

Some people phony pony about my methodology, until the baddies get inside of our perimeter.

Also, consider a SAW. It's like having your own personal gym.
