any into airsoft guns or know much about them?

Zach wants one for x-mas which puzzles the shit out of me. He has a bb gun, pellet gun, and a 410. Not sure what use he'll get out of it but it was #2 on his list to Santa. I'm looking at them at amazon and honestly I don't know shit about them. Anything in particular I should look for? He's not getting a couple hundred dollar airsoft gun....that just ain't happening. The one's I see on amazon are electric with rechargeable batteries, they all seem to shoot about the same fps, and I don't see much difference between them really.

They hurt when you shoot yourself in the inner thigh


Went to PAJeff's brothers house a while back to check on one of his projects and his son was playing with airsoft guns, and wanting to know how much they hurt I just pulled the trigger and shot myself

I bought a pretty decent M4-style airsoft rifle from Academy a few years back. Had a collapsible stock, removable carrying handle, laser sight and some different barrel attachments. Pretty nice for only $50. They stopped carrying it shortly after I bought it, though. If you find one you like, Google it and read about any issues people have had with it. The only thing I'll add is if you decide to buy an automatic, make sure the magazine will hold lots of airsoft rounds so you're not having to reload all the time. The rifle I bought only holds around 30 airsoft rounds, which is annoying at times.
