New noob

Postby michael25 » Mon Jul 09, 2012 10:46 pm

I am just getting started in airsoft( I guess you could call me a noob) and I wanted to get a little deeper into it. I know a little bit about air soft and I am willing to learn more. I have a few guns, but no gear. Anybody have any advice for me?

go to slaughter for sure, generaly stay away from cheaper guns and gear like nc star and crossman and such, all you need to start will be a solid gun with a couple highcaps, then move into a vest and get some midcaps for the gun, then get some more gear, a secondary, and anything else to complete a loadout, but just start with camo and a solid gun and youll be fine for sure dude, welcome to airsoft and welcome to AP

You must be a supervisor in the Department of Redundancy Department.
