I have a $20 springer that I got at big 5 a while back. It's fun for a litle target shooting and I'm waaaay to cheap to buy a real (read: gas operated) airsoft gun.

yeah gas is cool for the recoil I hear, but electric offer more shooting and not having to buy a new gas conister or refil it every time you play...

I had a $40 electric for a while. It was very weak compared to the springer.

I've also fired a gas one before. That was extremely cool.

Oh, for chrissakes. STFU.

violence is human...

Humans are intelligent enough to evolve to nullify violence. Some people seem to be against that ideal however, and instead throw fuel into a hopefully dying fire. We must promote peace in this world, not introduce weapons and devices with the intent of killing. We must be harmonious and positive thinking.

I have a spring MP5. Suprisingly accurate, nice and powerful. Makes for a good night in: Beers, target shooting, a movie. great stuff.

I think the proper elecric guns are much more powerful, and there's nothing better than the feel of an automatic, even though you empty the clip in 8 seconds flat.

I couldn't be bothered with gas: you got to pay for it.

One of my roommates had a springer. I say had because it randomly fell apart into 3 seperate pieces while he was shooting one of my other roommates with it. To this day we contest that it was an act of god for attacking one of his chosen people.

hahaha (the roommate being shot at is jewish)

Wait...those spring MP5's are automatic? I thought they were single shot....

My roommates are pretty into Airsoft.

One has a Tokyo Mauri (i think.. dont' remember but i think that's what he said) MP5. Electric Auto, it feels pretty neat and is fun to play around with.
He has a bunch of springers which he enjoys playing with, but compared to that auto MP5 *shiverS* hehe that thing can pierce skin at close range ;)

UHC MP5 SD3 is supposed to be the best entry level springer on the market. You can get it for ~$40-$50. I have it and it is VERY accurate. Install a scope and it's really fun to shoot. Comes with detachable silencer and retractable butt. Go to any of the good airsoft forums and ALL of them would tell you to either go with a good springer, a good gas gun that shoots fast (USP), or save up for a QUALITY AEG.

It says spring, so I doubt it.
My TM MP5/M4 is full auto though.
