Best Website to Buy Airsoft Guns?

[Pacestick]

Kia ora Guys

Just getting into airsoft over the last few weeks

Now i'm wondering whats the best website/Place to buy the Firearms?

[nighthawk]

Well as most wil say get along to a club meet the teams, and talk to an armourer, depends what team you wanna join, you have RuB, WAC, DC4 and 232 if you are already with one of them ignore that!! Trademe can turn up some good buys every so often but its buyer beware, hope you got someone who will look after your guns til your 18!!! Anyway hope to see you on the field soon!!!

[Kronos]

As you are 17, legally you should not be buying, or owning any airsoft guns. If you are keen to wait untill 18, or willing to get firearms licence then id say most clubs in your area would be keen for new members. As nighthawk has said, you can get in contact with anyone of them clubs and hopefully get to try out a game with them.

Hope this helps

Lighten up Kronos, i realize that. im just planning my moves as i am 18 in a few weeks;)

[Pacestick]

Cheers guys

[Kronos]

Its the standard thing us under 18's get :), sorry if it sounded harsh

Lighten up Kronos, i realize that. im just planning my moves as i am 18 in a few weeks;)

Sorry to say this bro but Kronos had every right to say what he said.

Now the reason being is that we get alot of young people on here and we have to cover our asses. Alot of people will be saying wait until your 18/get a firearms licence/words to that extent if your not legally allowed to own an airsoft gun yet. We aint trying to be assholes :P

[Pacestick]

Hey, No worries, i'm sure you were just covering your own moral Integrity

[Pacestick]

Okay well don;t you worry about me Bane

I'm not young and stupid, i've done a lot of research and no way will i be breaking any laws.

Then again my view are probably very self centered and i should think more about the younger guys like me not giving a toss about the law:o

[nighthawk]

well seeing as your 18 soon should see you sooner!!! cheers and welcome to the sport!

[Pacestick]

Thanks for having me!

[Kronos]

Theres only a handful of us younger guys here, and thats with good reason, we are still on trial. I meant it in the nicest way possible. Hope when you get to game you enjoy as much as i do, and one day ill get to shoot you :P

Hey, No worries, i'm sure you were just covering your own moral Integrity

I don't think 'moral integrity' has anything to do with the stance almost all ASNZ'ers take on underage people asking how to get Airsoft gear.

Airsoft guns in general get enough bad press on their own without ASNZ members helping out underage people to get the gear, Bane and Kronos are only trying to stop any problems for our sport by obeying the law.

[Pacestick]

:D Well said, I would comment more but ill just sound like a hippocrit, being underage myself:(

[Kronos]

Your welcome to an opinion or comment imo, We are friendly people. Well atleast most of us try to be :P

Im only 16 myself, and McArthur is another young one (you probly seen his posts if your browsing the threads) . The older guys have been very helpful to us.

[Pacestick]

Hey its there job to look after us right? cause were the next generation of airsofters :D

Either way i'm not worried about my age because i'm pretty much legal

[nighthawk]

Maybe for the mean time look at getting some good boots, maybe some DPM if you want and some goggles can never go amiss!!!

[Kronos]

:S i dont look at it that way, although i may not seem it, im very appreciative of all the information on this site that gets passed around. It helps us younger people learn the game we enjoy soo much. Dont worry mate, someone will take you up under their wing and teach you atleats the basics.

[wege]

did some one say 'pretty much legal'?

Pacestick - as mentioned, a bloody good way to see the gear and also play with it BEFORE you throw your hardly earned readies away is to get out and see it played/happening.
Go through website after website and read read read and read some more about stuff.

Two of the best purchases you can make are goggles and footwear. Goggles (if you don't have glasses) are easy to sort but footwear can take time. Mind you, goggles can take time to find the right sort and style for you as well - especially as your game style and preferences evolve.
Then the next thing to get would be some sort of clothing that is greenish or brownish in colour before you need to start looking at weird camo patterns - heck, even a DPM short and hat (green or otherwise) and some darkpants will be a good start - unless you want to go the balaclava, DPM jacket, blue jeans, dark combat boots PIRA look.
If/when you first get your airsoft gun, get some sort of a satchel so you can carry a magazine or two, some water, some bbs etc.

Then, start saving your $$ from there :)

There are a couple of good places in NZ that do sell semi-ed AEGs.. one being down Christchurch way? (and another for that matter :P) and another group who sell SRC and WE range of items up here in Auckland.

[Sandman45]

Also thought I'd mention there is a fire-arms retailer here in Tauranga that sell brand new factory semi'd G&G's. They have most of the range. Very exspensive being a retailer and the guns being G&G but the idea of having a store you can pick the gun up from brand new and have a warrenty etc maybe worth it (when you get the stage of being able to legally purchase one, you might be able to afford it:D)

Only mentioned as the previous post mentioned retaillers already

[Pacestick]

I have already got Decent DPMs and Two pairs of boots

in the Way of Eyeware i have been Scabing of DC4, a good Small Team From porirua Where i live.

[Pacestick]

I acctually have all the Gear you have Mentioned, Apart from quality face mask maybe.

[Chaos]

i'm pretty much legal

Thats the last thing you want your date to say to you ;)

[Sprocket657]

Meh stuff the facemask, showem your age dont make you a wimp :) If your worried about the pain, let your airsoft club shoot you in the back with all there guns for a bit *Willingly* and possibly take a sniper rifle bullet to the back of the head... Youll never feel airsoft pain again :)

[Pacestick]

Cheers SprocketMan

Thats sort of what i got a mate to do at my first game.

He shot me in the back with his Berreta (M9) and another mate Took the oppertunity to sneak in a shot at me with His M4.

Personally I dont want a face mask But its like my dads One condition of me playing airsoft.

Im normally quite happy with my Cheap Goggles

[Pacestick]

I think Ive decided to buy me a "D-Boys M4 RIS Full metal AEG" + Plus a bag and Foam Mask

Any body Brought one of these or Used it?

[Sprocket657]

Where are you going to buy it from? Best go through your clubs armourer and get it imported specially for you, saves money and guarantees a new product, not some overpriced used gun :)

[Pacestick]

I'm buying it from a website i got recommend to me by a team member

[Sprocket657]

okaykay, but wait till your 18 first cos yeah its not good to buy guns till then, dont be stupid now cos thats illegal and yeah :)

Cos as you said your not 18 for a few week and the law doesnt take into account that your *Nearly* 18

[Flare]

I have a DBoys SPR - they use the same receivers/gearboxes for all their armalites.

the upper and lower receiver may not fit together tightly so theres a bit of a wobble, but the gearboxes seem ok. quite a good price for a full metal gun and the quality is ok for a chinese clone
