Look, kid, you sound like you're about 12. Go buy a cheap old $20 spring gun (plastic) from someplace like atlantaairsoft.com.

Usually metal and spring don't go together. I know you can get metal parts for gas & electric guns though. I strongly suggest you consider a gas blowback handgun instead of a spring one... spring ones SUCK both in quality and performance. I think there's also a couple electric handguns as well.

If I was your mom I wouldn't let you play with anything that shoots projectiles, judging from your grammar.

Honestly unless you guys are willing to use masks with goggles, don't use anything stronger then the cheap spring ones.
The gas blow backs and electric can be very dangerous without the proper safety equipment and safety measures. These guns are not some little toy which you can go out and have "wars" with your friends. Not only do they shoot hard, but they shoot very fast. I have a tokyo marui p90 and that thing shoots fast, if someone is not wearing the proper safety equipment they can get seriously injured very easily.
Also these guns are generally good replicas of the real guns, if you go outside with these airsoft guns, you might get into trouble with the law, as in shot by the cops.
You have to also realize that the electric and gas blowbacks are a bit expensive, the gas are about 100+ and the aeg are around 200+. The metal ones of course cost more.
I recommend the spring because as you just stated you DO sound like a immature kid and I don't want immature kids playing airsoft and giving a bad name to this sport.

I don't think you sound mature enough to own a real air-soft gun. You can't just run around your neighborhood shooting at your friends.

A good private high school, huh? To me, that means you are even more immature than a regular high school student. You have most likely had much less experience with real life/the real world than a regular high school kid.

But I'm sure I'm wrong and you know all about real life, don't you?

So why don't you put in the 1% extra effort required to type like a human being? People will respect your opinions a whole lot more if you don't sound like a rabid 1st grader.

You do realise that these things will shoot holes through the walls in your house, right? I bet mommy wouldn't be happy about that no matter how rich you are...

I have a Daisy BB Gun (Real BBs, not the plastic yellow ones). But if you want it for shooting your friends, then I guess go with the plastic ones. If it's for target shooting, get a real one and just hide it from your parents.

You can check out www.cabellas.com for a huge selection of stuff.

I'm actually looking for an indoor target/trap for my BB gun but most say for Pellets only, No BBs.

Ah well.
