				<title>New Hobby-Looking for Advice</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ Ok folks. I know asking for advice from a web forum is like picking which star (after the north star) shines the brightest but I’m a gonna ask all the same.<br /> <br /> I found a new hobby.  Air soft.  I have done paintball so the way I see it, Air soft is the same but different ammo.  After that…I do not know jack about it.  I did get a chance to play a game at a location about 30 minutes from my casa and there is an even closer location that I could walk to if the need was there.  So what is my question?  What gun should I get to start?  Money is not really pouring out my ears so getting some $500 pew pew device is not an option.  Several online stores, NO PLUGS PLEASE, offer so called starter kits for around $200.  These kits offer a gun, mask/goggles, ammo, battery/charger and some other doo dads.  I am afraid, however, that these starter kits are gonna fall apart after some use.  These online stores also offer mystery boxes where for a flat rate, you get something from just over your price to some insane deal worth a lot more.  One site has this list below:<br /> <br /> <br /> Spartan Delta Series Full Metal AEG AKS-74UN Airsoft Gun 	$229.99 	1:185<br /> G&G Combat Machine CM16 SR-L AEG Airsoft Gun (Black) 	$230.00 	1:185<br /> G&G Combat Machine CM16 SR-S AEG Airsoft Gun ( Battery & Charger Package ) 	$233.00 	1:185<br /> ASG Steyr AUG A3 XS Commando AEG Airsoft Gun ( Black ) 	$234.95 	1:185<br /> KWA Full Metal KM4 KR5 KeyMod AEG Airsoft Gun 	$239.95 	1:185<br /> G&G Combat Machine CM16 MOD0 Full Metal Carbine AEG Airsoft Gun ( Black ) 	$240.00 	1:185<br /> G&G Full Metal TR16 CQW Desert Tan Blow Back AEG Airsoft Gun 	$245.00 	1:185<br /> Airsoft GI G4-A2 Desert Dagger Compact KeyMod AEG Airsoft Gun ( Custom ) 	$245.99 	1:185<br /> Classic Army Full Metal M4 RIS Pistol AEG Airsoft Gun 	$249.99 	1:185<br /> Classic Army Full Metal M14 Match AEG Airsoft Gun 	$250.00 	1:185<br /> KJW Full Metal Tactical .22 Carbine GBB Rifle Airsoft Gun 	$250.00 	1:185<br /> G&G Full Metal TR16 R4 Desert Tan Blow Back AEG Airsoft Gun 	$252.00 	1:185<br /> Elite Force H&K MP7 GBB Pistol Airsoft Gun Licensed by Elite Force ( Black ) 	$254.99 	1:185<br /> Spartan Delta Series Full Metal AEG AK-74N Airsoft Gun 	$259.99 	1:185<br /> Spartan Delta Series Full Metal AEG AK47 AIR MOD A Airsoft Gun 	$259.99 	1:185<br /> Spartan Delta Series Full Metal AEG AKMS Airsoft Gun 	$259.99 	1:185<br /> ASG DSA <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(434);'>SA</span>-58 OSW ( Offensive Suppression Weapon ) Full Metal Rifle AEG Airsoft Gun 	$264.95 	1:185<br /> G&G Full Metal TR16 CRW Desert Tan Blow Back AEG Airsoft Gun 	$270.00 	1:185<br /> G&G Full Metal M14 AEG Airsoft Gun 	$270.00 	1:185<br /> G&G Full Metal SOC 16 AEG Airsoft Gun 	$270.00 	1:185<br /> G&G Full Metal M14 AEG Airsoft Gun ( Fake Wood ) 	$270.00 	1:185<br /> Spartan Full Metal SRX 300 Blackout Series SRX 306 Carbine AEG Airsoft Gun By VFC 	$339.99 	1:185<br /> VFC Full Metal MK16-L CQC AEG Airsoft Gun ( BLK ) 	$389.00 	25:185<br /> VFC Full Metal MK16-L CQC AEG Airsoft Gun ( Tan ) 	$389.00 	25:185<br /> E&L Airsoft Full Metal <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(44);'>Gen</span> 2 AK74MN A106 AEG Airsoft Gun 	$389.99 	1:185<br /> VFC Full Metal FN Herstal SCAR-H MK17 CQC AEG Airsoft Gun ( Black ) 	$399.00 	25:185<br /> VFC FN Herstal SCAR-H MK17 CQC AEG Airsoft Gun ( Tan ) 	$399.00 	25:185<br /> VFC FN Herstal SCAR-H MK17 <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(178);'>STD</span> AEG Airsoft Gun ( BLK ) 	$399.00 	25:185<br /> VFC FN Herstal SCAR-H MK17 <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(178);'>STD</span> AEG Airsoft Gun (Tan) 	$399.00 	25:185<br /> E&L Airsoft Full Metal <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(44);'>Gen</span> 2 AKM A101 AEG Airsoft Gun 	$399.99 	1:185<br /> Spartan Full Metal SRX 300 Blackout Series SRX 309 Carbine AEG Airsoft Gun By VFC 	$399.99 	1:185<br /> G&G GK5C <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(380);'>GL</span> Full Metal Assault AEG Airsoft Gun 	$400.00 	1:185<br /> G&G Top Tech Full Metal TR4-18 Light CQB Desert AEG Airsoft Gun 	$400.00 	1:185<br /> PTS Masada Gas Blow Back Rifle ( GBBR ) Airsoft Gun 	$420.00 	1:185<br /> Krytac Licensed War Sport LVOA-C Exclusive Airsoft GI AEG Airsoft Gun ( FDE ) 	$430.00 	1:185<br /> Elite Force H&K 417 AEG Airsoft Gun ( by VFC ) 	$439.99 	1:185<br /> VFC FN Herstal SCAR-H MK17 SSR AEG Airsoft Gun ( Tan ) 	$499.99 	1:185<br /> VFC FN Herstal SCAR-H MK17 SSR AEG Airsoft Gun ( Black ) 	$499.99 	1:185<br /> E&L Airsoft Limited Edition Full Metal A110 PMC-D (w/ CNC X Rail) AEG Airsoft Gun 	$539.99 	1:185<br /> Valken Optima Block II M4 Carbine With Valken V12 Engine Airsoft Gun (DST/Tan) 	$549.99 	1:185<br /> Monster Box	$1,609.95 	1:185<br /> <br /> Monster Box 	<br /> Elite Force H&K 416 CQB AEG Airsoft Gun ( by VFC ) 	$434.99 <br /> Echo 1 Rifle Dynamics Full Metal <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(606);'>HMG</span> Airsoft Gun 	$399.99 <br /> Classic Army Full Metal CA90TR Tactics XT Airsoft Gun 	$324.99 <br /> Elite Force H&K SL9 AEG Sniper Rifle Airsoft Gun (Licensed by Umarex) 	$299.99 <br /> Smith & Wesson M&P 9 Full Size Semi / Full Auto GBB Airsoft Gun ( Dark Earth / Licensed by Cybergun ) 	$149.99 <br /> <br /> This list has the guns name, MSRP and odds of getting.  The MSRP on all of these guns (exception is the SWMP9 Listed last in the monster box) exceeds the purchase price of one box.  So, to those of you with knowledge of the hobby, any reason why I should not buy a chance at any of these guns?<br /> <br /> Thanks,<br /> <br /> Jason<br /> <br /> Admin: If wrong forum sorry...]]></description>
