Re: Need Gun Advice
Have you got any kit/gear at the moment?
And how old are you may I ask?

Re: Need Gun Advice
Making the assumption that you're old enough to actually get the gun and that you've got the rest of the kit needed already (if not, at least get some decent boots as the best rifle in the world won't help you play on a broken ankle!):
Most airsoft guns are basically the same inside. There's very little difference between an M4, an MP5, an AUG and an AK in airsoft terms, so go for what
you
like, not what other people tell you to like.
Take advice on things like the reliability of different makes, yes, but only you know what floats your boat where guns are concerned.
If you are going down the AK route, though, please for the love of God get one with wood and not all this capitalist-style RIS bo**ocks!

Re: Need Gun Advice
Cyma definitely for the cheaper AKs in my book.
You're right, you can be bought a two tone by your parents, just make sure there's no exchange of money or services. I know it's very tempting to wash their cars for a couple of months in exchange for a gun, but you don't want to put them in the position of having to lie under oath if it ever went to court.
