Yeah, we shoot plastic BB's
BUT. If you look at it. The guns look real and granted the military actually uses airsoft for training.... scratch

Subject: Re: nerf? realy? Sat Apr 18, 2009 9:41 am

and i have never seen a nerf gun hit somebody 100 ft away.

I personally (not trying to dog on savoy) just don't see how people can look at airsoft and laugh or say "oh...wait.. we sling BB's at eachother" because its not the fact that we sling BB's but its the fact of look at the guns...look at what airsoft is ALSO used for...

I see airsoft at a WAY higher level than nerf...
I mean people don't dog on paintball, and to me airsoft is a lot better than paintball.

well i used to say airsoft was more realistic but i have seen some real looking paint ball guns, but airsoft is still better in my opinion. and we could argue that all day long it just a opinion.

look at this

heheh... Yea It'll look "like a real one" before you put the hopper on it... Airsoft replicas cannot be held in the same category as paintball markers... There is no contest, most basic paintball guns need 2 things Airsofters do not need and that is a Hopper and large tank for air... a big hopper and tank scream Shoot me and aren't very realistic, is what drove me away from paintball and to airsoft, Airsoft is much more realistic and allows one to, in my opinion, simulate the real thing in a much more realistic style than with a splooge cannon...

Oh, don't get me wrong! I wasn't saying airsoft is the same thing as paintball.

I didn't make myself clear haha.
I meant that people love paintball...you run around and shoot at eachother.
Then with airsoft....you run around and shoot at eachother. (YES there are objectives 90% of the time but im talking about main concept)

and people look at airsoft and laugh at it?! as the concept is mainly the same thing as paintball...just a LOT BETTER and more realistic AKA more MILSIM

not trying to argue but my friend at school showed me a paint ball gun that the paint balls went in the clip and the gas was in the stock(with no big tank), no joke! but Im with you all airsoft is much better.(ill try to put a link on here to show the comparison, Monday)but again airsoft is better.

I hate how everything has to relate to the pain factor. Everyone who plays paintball at my school says that airsoft sucks because it doesn't hurt unbelievably bad. Airsoft guns can hurt if they want to. I've experienced that. They must base their opinions off of walmart guns.

Subject: Re: nerf? realy? Tue Jul 28, 2009 11:33 am

no, they're just basing their opinions off of being dumbasses that think that firing .68 cal paintballs at folks hard enough to leave bruises somehow makes them more "manly"?...or something stupid like that...
