Just got it today:

Picture

:D

edit: lower resolution pic because some are complaining of slowness

edit: I don't have a place to host it, so just put it up on the ftp site my school gave me. See if you can acess it.

*note, the movie isn't great quality because it was taken with my Canon A40 :)

edit 2: It probably isn't the fastest, so best bet is to "right click/save as" and just open it while it is done instead of sitting there waiting for it to play :)

Very nice, I wouldn't post pix of pre-ban clips though... You're lucky, can't get them in CA..

:D

I even have to adjust one because it is off (the right one)

Poor college students have to work with what we got, right? :)

Cool poster by the way ;)

Yup, got that poster from NASA for free, courtesy hot deals.

Perfectly legal to own, but I think most places only give you a 10 round clip (sucks). But you can look for pre-ban / exsisting stock. Besides, never know what could happen, flies in your home to an intruder.

Ok, I'll say now. It isn't real, it is an Airsoft gun. I was just wondering how authentic it looked to people.

I already scared the sh!t out of my housemates:D They love it. I got one right as he was coming out of the shower. Opened the door and there I was with a AK and a mask on.

It is a lot of fun to shoot. I am going to get into playing airsoft and this is my first big purchase (I only had a desert eagle beforehand).

Someday I do want to buy a real one though. But not before I am older and have my own house.

OMG I try to pull that sh!t on my roommates all the time :D How much was it? Where did you get it from? And are they legal in NJ?

where do you buy your guns?

I got mine from Redwolf Airsoft. Medium prices, but great shipping. I ordered my package on Thursday from Hong Kong, and it arrived today.

You have to import most of the time because it isn't too popular over here in America yet. But it is growing.

Here are some retailers that are supposed to be good if you want to check them out (note, it is quite and expensive hobby but loads of fun):

Airsoft Atlanta (only major Airsoft Retailer that I know of in US that has a decent webpage)
Den Trinity (This one is one of the more popular ones)
Redwolf Airsoft (where I bought my stuff)
Jag Enterprises (kind of have a sub par webpage, but I've heard good things about them)
Wargamer Club (never bought from them but heard reccomendations)

For information on Airsoft:

Airsoft Retreat (have a lot of information and a decently active Forums)
Airsoft Pacific (this place has a calander with events in the pacific northwest. They organize stuff and you show up and have fun. They also have a hardcore team that you can try to be a part of and, if you do, you can then play in their more hardcore tournaments. There should be similar webpages/teams around the country)
Airsoft Players (more information)
