I got into Airsoft during my final year of uni. It is amazing what a diet of cheap food (lay off the steak and junk food) and not drinking for the year can do for your budget. Do you really need to go to that concert, go to that club, go to to restaurant, eat out every weekend, or go into town every other day?
If you get verified and become a participating member of a local club, I am sure that you will be able to get a decent kit together for around $600. Buy a used gun, grab some used repo camo, get a used load-bearing, and you are set, look great, and can play with the best of them.
DON'T buy crapsoft. It will crap out on you, turn your playing experience to crap, and waste your money making you feel like crap. If you are budget strapped, JG or the chinese clones will work, but something reliable for slightly more is always better.
