Dont play at a school or near a public place. People will sweat you so much. Do it in your backyard if you have a big one. The accuracy of the guns will be horrible at medium to long distances. Close quarters /w cover (trees or backyard junk) is your best bet for a good time.

Well, we should be able to find somewhere. Cupertino is a decently sized city, must be something somewhere.

I live in an apartment, and my friends really don't have large backyards. Too small to get much enjoyment...

Used to play in my buddies house all the time, grenades kept making a mess though =[

If your playing in close range automatics are 1000x more fun and you should up your price to cover one, but in a relatively large area spring loaded are just as fun to use, and I'd recommend them for having no batteries/co2 to refill.

Yea, never bring any airsoft gun into public areas. It's always best to take the safe route and find some place else. I believe some guys i know went into a sorta forested/outdoors area away from houses. Might be a good choice.

Me and my friends play in the parking lot of this mormon church at like 11p.m. No one is there, and there are tones of bushes/cover. A friend with a big back yard is definitely the best, one of my friends has a huge backyard with a trench and a lot of junk/cover.

Are there any canyons near where you live? That's a good place to play as well. If you're gonna play at a public place, do it at night.

Well, San Jose/Cupertino doesn't really have many "fields" or stuff from what I have seen. Canyons... not so much either.

I suppose we could get another friend interested :o, he has a pretty big backyard.

I suggest you buy this instead:

It's way cooler, and you can look like a crazy person while you tell people it's for hunting bears. Loads funner than trying to look cool with fake ugly guns.

Material:
DAMASTEEL - Rose, brass, antler of deer

The antler of a DEER. SERIOUSLY.

You don't have to knife anyone... you just wave it around threateningly whenever you want your friend to find a snack... Or use it to eat apple slices.

well, I am considering an M14:
$39.95
* Full Size M14 Airsoft Replica Pellet Rifle
* Capacity: 37 Rounds
* FPS: 390 (.12g)
* Adjustable Hop Up
* Tri-Rail RIS (Rail Interface System) Integrated Front and Top Scope Rail

Includes:
* Sniper Rifle
* BB Speed Loader
* Cleaning Rod
* Tri-Rail Mount
http://www.hobbytron.com/SniperRifleAirsoftGunDRVB92058.html

From what I have read, it is more like 350 FPS for .12g bb, and 250ish for .20g bb.

Is it a good deal, and if not, any suggestions?
Should I use .20g bbs or .12g bbs?


I actually have owned this gun. For the price range you are buying I would definitely recommend this gun. This is probably the best springer I have used besides a spring sniper rifle. Definitely use .2g bbs, and adjust the hop up accordingly.
