I really want to write an FAQ for this. I understand you're inquiring about value, but I think this applies.
You - Get - What - You - Pay - For
If by 'beginner gun' you mean something you can purchase for a cheap price and that might perform adequately: Then Yes.
If by 'beginner gun' you mean something that is reliable (won't break every few weeks), and durable (can't be shot through like the old CYMA shot guns), and low maintenance (so you don't have to pull it apart to fix it), and competitive (something that will give you a decent feel for the game): Then No.
It's been a long time since I've been a beginner. And I understand your impatience and the lure of inexpensive 'not too bad' equipment. But I always figured I'd rather purchase something that will last and that I can rely on instead of something as a quick fix. You're either out 150 bucks every time your CYMA gun breaks, or you save a few hundred more and get something you know is a solid product.
Can't stop you from buying them of course, but just like buying from the States.. Don't come complaining to us if it doesn't work after two weeks. The warnings were there. "We told you so."
