I'm looking for a good reliable rifle and i am not sure where to start looking. I am just sick of getting the cheap backup gun to use that shoots like shaZam!, i always just end up using the CO2 pistol a buddy of mine carries :icon_lol: However when we were dicking around this weekend it was to cold and the CO2 was freezing up, go figure :icon_lol:
I was just shooting my airsoft in the house tonight. I got an old cheap pull action hand gun looks like a colt. Not powerfull at all was attacked by a cat once ( I know I know) so I shot at it with the airsoft nothing he just kept coming ran through the cat door at me finally hit it with a garbage can lid WTF! But he sure as heck wasn't gonna get my kitty.

http://www.shortyusa.com/ This is the best place to buy anything airsoft IMHO. My younger brother plays alot, and if you read the reviews, you can ensure that you get a quality gun... not the wallmart crap that they sell at wallmart. They have a shotgun that shoots three bbs per shot in three seperate barrels. My little bro has one. I reccomend it, its pretty sweet.
Ill be damned mary, youve got a black cat, as i do. does yours have a slight air of arrogance or an attitude? mine does :cookoo:
I have an Russian Anics Shiff 3000
http://www.pyramydair.com/blog/2006/09/anics-skif-a3000-co2-pistol.html
It is a good piece of kit, about as powerful as CO2 pistols get here, 28 shot mag is handy. I have shot small rodents with it. Not the smoothest action but functional.
I have never heard of the CO2 freezing but they do get less efficient when cold, an fact there are several "keep-warm" holsters and cases available for this type of pistol.

Mary - Yeah i hear ya, i wouldn't let a stray or not so friendly neighbor cat touch my cat either.
Cal - the CO2 wasn't really freezing completely just not warming fast enought to create more CO2 gas, so it would be pow pow pow puff pink pink, then you would just wait and warm the CO2 area and you could shoot again, it was quite ghey. The electric rifle i was shooting was like a $30 wallmart special with the range of a drunk man taking a piss. Eventually i got close enough to get blasted in between the gaps in trees. i like the rifles for clip size, not having to reload a lot is awesome, even with 8 clips pistols get old sometimes(8-10 shot clips) :icon_lol: :icon_lol:

You can have my RR carbine action 200 shot range model air rifle if you agree to lick this metal pole here in Maine. Go ahead, I dare ya....I triple dog dare ya.
Any gas gun is going to suffer from cool down if you fire it too rapidly. Winter time makes that phenomena worse, so generally gas guns are considered all but unusable in the winter season.
You might want to consider a medium or high quality AEG (Airsoft Electric Gun). Something made by Tokyo Mauri, ICS or Classic Army. China is making some decent medium quality AEG's now. Look for brands like Cyma, Jing-Gong, A&K and D-boy. Google those brands along with the word "airsoft" and you should get plenty of hits. Or lurk around this site http://www.airsoftretreat.com and you'll learn more than you ever thought possible about the strange and varied world of airsoft.
Whatever you do, stay away from that clear plastic Wal-Mart crap. Just gives airsoft a bad name.
yeah i have seen a lot of those brands with vastly swinging price ranges. And as for clear plastic walmart crap trust me i have had enough, like i said i istly use the co2 pistol but in the winter thats not that great of an option :icon_lol:
i would totally stick my tong to the pole but Maine is a bit of a hike and its to cold to ride :icon_razz:

Yes, my cat has such an attitude. Her Name is AKASHA from the movie "The Queen of the Damned". She likes to get on your chest in the middle of the night and nibble at your neck. She is a freak! She's got six toes on her front paws so she has a total of 22toes. They look like freaking baseball mits. And she is hooked on Cat nip never seen a cat slobber like she does over her mouse. With the extra toe she can hold the mouse and she just puts it on her nose and start trippin! She needs an Intervention!
So, with the airsoft do you like shoot each other like paintball? I have a gel target that I shoot at. I used to be on the Rifle team in NJROTC was a ton of fun. It was high powered air rifles but they were powerful. Same ones they use in the Olympics.
Mary
yeah we actually gear up and depending on the number of people play different scenarios.
my friends and i when we were 12-15 or so would have bb gun wars. :icon_twisted:

It just looks bad ass :icon_lol: :icon_lol:
Do you have three hands :dunno_white: Trying to figure out why it has three handles. How fast does those things shoot?
Mary
its a replica of a Steyr AUG assault rifle, it should shoot around 375fps or maybe a hair better (specs say 435 with .20g BBs). Its held like this:

The clip is located in the stock allowing for a longer barrel in a more compact rifle, yada yada, i have always thought they look cool :icon_lol: :icon_lol:
