Whats Up? First Gun Purchase!
 
Hey everyone what is up! Well I have been reading this site for a while now as I was making descisions to buy my first gun. Well first lemme introduce myself first. I go by Duelus on the net, I'm 13 years old and I live in Dallas Texas U.S. I recent was introduced to airsoft while hanging out with a friend of mine and it was lots of fun. I started looking for a gun. I came across the UHC USP from ShortyUSA.com and purchased it, green gas, and .20 g BB's for a price of $76.00 :-D I purchased it and the gun is being ship via UPS and should arrive on Monday according to the tracker! I'm pretty excited becuase there is a local field and you only have to be 13 to play with a waiver signed by a parent :-D So whats everyones opions on this gun? Have you owned or operated one before? Well I would appreciate the feedback!

Nice. Although, UHC isn't the highest quality brand. Oh yea and its a NBB. Alright to start with I guess. Make sure you read rules and such for your area. Don't become another retarded teen that gives us bad names.

Ya, I'm probally going to only shoot in the backyard, inside my home, and at the airsoft field. I actually built a target:

Make sure you have goggles... the BBs will bounce back if they hit wood.

Probally?... So there is still a chance you will be shooting eles where?

You will have to get your parent's concent and they have to do the actual order. Finding spare magazines for this gun is a bitch sometimes...I say go with a TM the price difference isn't that big. www.airsoftforum.com is american and they are better informed about U.S. airsoft then us here...

I'm glad you remembered to say that, otherwise half of of the forum would be jumping on you right now lol.

Anywho, I think it's a decent starter pistol, the NBB will save you gas since it doesn't have to pull back the slide as well. Just be safe =). That's an interesting target box you have too.

I have purchased a Paintball mask and already have a couple of pairs of high quality saftey glasses.

Generation Vexed, By saying probally I meant maybe shooting in other friends backyards that own airsoft guns too!

Thanks on the target comment, it took me about 10 minutes to build. I used stakes as feet so I can hammer it into the ground. Also, the hole is about 3 inches in diameter. I hope I'm good enough with a gun to make it through that from atleast 20 feet awa :P

Greykin January 26th, 2006 22:08

For 20ft it SHOULD be sufficient lol, unless something is seriously wrong with your pistol >_>".

Duelus January 26th, 2006 22:11

or my aim :P

yanhchan January 26th, 2006 22:31

I don't get it...why not start with a UTG MP5/AK?...and then get a side arm?

mirage13 January 26th, 2006 22:41

Damn, yanhchan, how much is Sam paying you? :confused:

You're basically a human-spam-bot posting "UTG Rules, Buy From BCAS" in different words, regardless of the thread...

ert January 26th, 2006 22:44

And you have a habit of posting useless stuff Mirage...

Know what....you're right...but why would he need to buy from Sam...he's in the states? But wait did I tell him to buy from sam in this thread? DID I EVEN MENTION BCAS in my post?? When I tell people to buy from Sam its usually to people who are planning to buy a UTG anyways. What business is this of what I say. Am I flaming people. I'm just asking why he decided to start with an NBB if he plans to play games.
