Agreed about the influx of douche bags, I believe its how you play, not what you pay.
But wait? You got your entire setup for under 2000$??? Damn, I wish I could do that, If I wanted a a TH 240 to go with my VN kit, thats a straight 1500$ BEFORE upgrading the hell out of it, but man I really want a ARES M200! 1400$
You know what... Ive decided fuckit, I want a Shoei....
You want a high end gun, you pay for it, were not talking a gun, and a padded black and blue fetish suit, were talking a full replica rifle, plus a 100% accurate kit load out, THAT is the "high- end" of airsoft.
Were not talking about some 200$ sportline CA's here, though I do like those...
On another note, the "Springer" of PB guns is not some 200$ spyder, its that hilarious 40$ Blue- green C02 tube thing that sites next to the airguns at the walmart
Point is this, you are claiming airsoft is cheaper than your "high end" PB game. Well, you choose to play high end paintball, and you bought the gear as a result. Now don't try to compare it to some lower scale CA's, I could go play PB for 300$ too.If your going to tote your High end gear out, at least have the decency to compare to similar gear in airsoft.
Airsoft is based around reenactment/training/Good time, more so then competition, its just a different thing.
This is my 0.02
On another random note, do you ever do anything with the 501st? My guess is yes but idk.
And here's something for the Star Wars fan in all of us: http://wildammo.com/2009/08/09/what-sto ... r-day-off/
Quote from: "Ultra"Coming from a Tournament Paintball perspective, Airsoft is significantly less expensive in every aspect, from guns, to equipment, to ammunition. A decent marker + airsystem +hopper to just fool around with in Rec Ball will cost about $200. Decent paint is 50 bucks per 2000. For tournament play, expect to spend at least a grand on your gun, air system, and rig. Much more than that if you are going to take the sport seriously.
I picked up two CA guns from Gearbox for a fraction of what I spent on my Angel paintball rig. Even high grade ammo is ridiculously cheap in comparison. 15 bucks for 5 thousand .20 bio degradables? Compared to paint, that's almost free.
So honestly I don't know what some of yall are talking about. From my point of view, airsoft has never been expensive. Ever. It's always been a fraction of the expense of paintball and in the paint world, airballing has always been seen as a cheap alternative to paintball.
Airsoft has always been cheap. If the sport is all of a sudden being inundated with jerks, the low cost of guns is not the reason.
You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about do you?
On side, love the ultrasabers, friend of mine has a pair, and me duel every once in a while. However, most people consider a decent Airsoft rifle to cost upwards of 300$, BEFORE upgrades. So how is that cheaper then 200? That doesn't even include gear. My man, lurk for a while find out what the ins and outs are, then comment, I don't know one paintfag who considers Airsoft a "cheaper" version of a similar gun game. Our guns are just better, and they are jealous
lol.. no, but really......
