Airsoft discussion

OK, i have talked to a lot of people in my time that don't know what Airsoft is, so, I'm going to explain it for people who might not know. And besides, airsoft isn't listed for interests so ya... anyway, for a person just starting out, it can be EXPENSIVE. my gear i have already has cost me well over $800. And i still am not done getting gear. Plus, the airsoft BB's, which, even though they run about $8 - $15 for a bag or bottle, its still money consuming. And if you have a gas powered gun, gas runs between $10 and $15 a can, though you can get an adapter to use propane as an alternate gas, i prefer Green Gas, which is what most gas guns take. Then you have the Springers, which are neither semi nor fully automatic. You have to pull the slide, or bolt, or whatever the gun has. It is sort of like Paintball, except instead of Paint balls you use little 6MM BB's. The guns all have real steel counterparts, like, MP5's, M4's, M9's, 1911's, most real guns have an airsoft counterpart, though i have seen a select few that don't. Airsoft games come in many forms, too. Capture the flag, Last Team Standing, Last Man Standing, hostage rescue, others like that. They also have some overnight games that last 24 hours or more. Then you have the brands... Tokyo Marui is the best of the best. Then you have Echo 1, KWA, KSC, CYMA, and a ton of others. Echo 1 is really good, CYMA is really bad. I have been into airsoft myself for three years now. I have an Echo 1 MP5 with full and semi auto function. a Tokyo Marui Glock 17 with a Glock 18C mag, but no full auto function, just Semi. I am trying to get a Glock 18C to have fully auto function. I also have my two spring Micro Uzi's. I have my Camo pants, Jacket and Hat. I have extras magazines for each of my guns. Anyway, Feel free to discuss your opinions on airsoft.
