Fields near Oakland County

[zeus]

Sup guys just joined up today. Me and a few of my friends here in Rochester have been playin for about 2 years now in our backyards and stuff, but now that we are getting AEGs and gas guns, we wanted to start playing a little more seriously- so i joined here Most of my friends including myself can drive but, i was wondering if there are any fields near Rochester Hills?

Also i am looking forward to getting into spring with a sweet sniper rifle. I was researching the UHC super 9/tactical, but i read on some forms that they suck Then i started looking at theKJW M700 Style Bolt-Action Gas Sniper Rifle from jungletoy and i liked that as well. So i was wondering if you guys could give me some feedback.(Any pricing lower than $300 if possible)

Well there's a LOT of [stock] guns you can buy for under $300. Once you start upgrading however you can get to around 500-600 dollars. I dont know about sniper rifles but most average AEG's will run you 250-300.

No fields around Oakland or Rochester that I know of (I am near you).

I would go with the UTG M324 or KJ W M700 if you looking into a sniper rifle, though, wouldn't recommend as since your a bit new to the scene, you may have a lead trigger finger, so, I would buy the UTG Mp5, and see how you like it before you go into a sniper type role.

well ive been playin airsoft for a while with full auto, and I go hunting with friends up north so i like the whole sniping scene. When you guys play events, do u use a rifle and secondary pistol or is it rifles only? Cause id like to use my pistol as well. Yea i liked the kjw m700 from jungletoy and i can see ill have to but some mods on it, starting with a scope. I also like the fact that it is gas because i heard it was hard to modify a spring rifle(internally) Are there alot of snipers that play here ? I was also thinking about an ics m4, but i cant decide whether i wanna go with that or sniping.

Most prospected snipers quit after a few games, it's just really not practical. What I suggest, and what AndrewMp5k2006 suggested. Get a cheaper sniper rifle, such as the UTG or KJW, or even the HFC USR-11. Just consider your options, and don't jump right into gun, research a little bit.

Also, welcome to the boards!

[zeus]

Thanks for the welcome Yeah Ive been researching and plan on continuing until i have found something solid. I am still looking into an m4 from ics or tokyo mauri. I was just wondering what kind of feedback i would get from you guys, only because i like sniping as well. Im starting to like the utg m324, looks like a good gun. O and i was just wondering, what is the average fps on all of your guns? I know my kjw 1911 shoots around 315 with .2s.

[OaKeY]

I would recomend the Tokyo Marui over the ICS, I haven't heard good things from ICS, and with Tokyo Marui, you are sure to get a good thing. Also, Classic Army is a good brand, but with them your chances of getting a lemon are higher then a Tokyo Marui. But I would still pick CA over TM anyday, I'm a bit of a trademark whore.

I had a KJW M700, got rid of it after I fielded it once.

As said before, pick up a UTG mp5 or something to get a feel for the game. And then make your way from there. I'm honestly against gas snipers, considering the vary between each shot, and aren't that consistent. If you want a true sniper rifle be ready to spend $300 for the stock rifle, then pay another $200 or so for the upgrades.

[zeus]

well ive played in organized events before with lots of people so its not like I'm a newbie or anything(except with sniping and modding weapons) However i was also thinking of purchasing a good old aeg since its what im use too. I was thinking about Panther arms m4a1 ar-15. It looks clean, has a good price and packs a punch. What do you guys think?

[AndrewMp5k2007]

Sometimes, you can find a good deal on used Sniper Rifles. I almost bought a TM VSR-10 (spring) upgraded with everything (550fps) for $175 shipped, all it needed was a new seal or something, and it was good to go. I decided against it, because sniping really isn't for me, as why I limited down my higher fps rifles inventory, and only have my PSG-1 as of right now.

I would say get a TM M4A1.

[zeus]

yep that is what im thinking about too, but the only thing i dont like is the fact the fps is so low stock on these guns How much upgrading will it need and what cost is my concern. O and where do think i should go to search for them, cause the main website is in Japanese lol. I was thinking jungle toy.

[OaKeY]

These are some recomended sights.

www.shortyusa.com

There are others, but these are the ones I have dealt with.

[zeus]

why are the TM M4s so low in fps(stock) my gas pistol shoots harder I would think by moving up in quality you would move up in performance.

[OaKeY]

Trust me, 280fps is plenty, especially for a first AEG. If you're new to the workings of an AEG, and upgraded gun may be a problem. Becuase there is more stress on the gearbox of upgraded guns, meaing more problems. But that's really just a general statement.

[zeus]

i see what you mean, but my only concern is that 285 would not be able to compete with u guys, cause i mean my KJW 1911 para shoots at 315fps and its supposed to be my sidearm.
