Just wanted to know if its possible to buy the "Not For Civilian" guns off 007airsoft somehow, since I'm not a civilian.

Wait until you get AV'd, then you'll have access to the classifieds.

Can do!

Tsahal April 23rd, 2009 17:12

I think you better wait to be age verified and save more money. You would probably get a systema and some good brand new gears

For someone who is 14 I really think you're going out of your way to sink a lot of money into airsoft that you can't use. 4 years is a really long time... I would suggest woodsball instead. During that time you'll probably grow out of your BDU's also. If you don't play I think it'll all be a waste.

CHEERS!

My BDU's are Extra large, and paintball doesn't interest me at all. I tried it a few times, and it wasn't that great.

I can use the airsoft gun (target practice) and I won't have it until im 16. I have 50% of my gear right now. Besides, as I stated in my first post, its going to be a father-son project lasting 2 years.

Also, I have connections for the gear (Army Issue Surplus), and I have plenty of money I have been saving for a while. I do once and a while play paintball with a friend, but other than that, I dont like it all too much.

Sorry for the double post everyone, but I have 2 questions that could use an answer.

#1, would anybody be against playing with a 17 year-old Canadian Forces Reserves member? Since Im joining, I just wish to know for future referance.

#2, what internals would you all recommend? I have no clue what to do for the internals. What is good and what is junk in the ICS M4 SIR?

Thanks in advance.

CHEERS!

I just want to add in a comment here.. I seen for optics you chose todo a ACOG? I just briefly skimmed through this thread but if your still planning on a CF loadout, You'd be better off finding a ELCAN.

hot_shot under fire May 5th, 2009 18:35

Nahh, the ELCAN doesn't look that great on the M4 SIR (photoshoped it, looks worse than the ACOG). Also, I prefer the ACOG over the ELCAN anyhow.

pusangani May 5th, 2009 18:42

if that 17yr old CF Reserves member is you then yes I would be against it, the rules for most games state 18+ only, not
"18+ only or 17yr old CF Reserve members"

Most games are 18 only. And no offence to CF members, but I know a few of 17 year old army reserve guys, and I wouldn't want to play airsoft with any of them. The army reserve seems to attract 17 year old douchebags.

Is it a halfbreed ICS or a full metal one? The full metal ICS guns are great. I've heard their halfbreeds leave something to be desired.

Your just getting into Airsoft, yet you're buying TWO guns, and multiple sets of gear? PLUS you have 4 years to go... I see something wrong. Working for your money is great, but you should learn some control with your spending if your going to spend ALL your money the second you have enough... especially when you can't even use it yet.

EDIT: Being in or going to be in CF still does not change your age.

Ashton May 5th, 2009 19:50

If I were you, I would wait before buying anything. Save your money, and once you actually have some experience playing on the field, then start spending. The experience you garner from the first time you play will act as a guide to assist you in making intelligent purchases. The same can be true for any purchase you make, really.

You're excited about it, great. I was excited too when I found it three years ago and was only fifteen. I don't think it would've made a difference had I purchase a bunch of equipment four years ago and steeled myself in preparation for my first game as opposed to going there in some civvies and renting some equipment, which is what I did (thanks again to SIR).

Just advice from a newbie who had a similar sort of situation going on.

Read the thread!

Its going to be a father-son project, thats the last time I say that!

And, yes, the person who will be 17 who is joining the CFR IS me.

EDIT: actually, almost 3 years away now...

Erennert May 5th, 2009 20:22

Gear is not a father son project. Are you going to attach Molle pouches together?

Gear is going to be later on. I just have a rough out-line.

Also, I have it under good account im NOT a douchbag. (im not too cocky, and I have to be the safest person with guns in my school. Yea, thats right, im VERY safe with them, and NEVER point them at anything unless i intend to shoot it. The only acception to that is pointing the gun at the ground while im carring it, and I have my finger far from the trigger)
