Is this an okay first airsoft gun?

It's okay, but I, like mongoose12, would recommend you get a pistol to start off with. Cheap spring pistols on Amazon are a nice introduction. Just make sure you're buying an Airsoft pistol and not a metal BB pistol.EDIT: Also, be aware that Airsoft is an expensive sport. If you intend to play the game seriously, you will have to consider entry costs for fields, high quality guns $100 or more each, and etc. Backyard skirmishes with friends won't require nearly as expensive equipment though.

I would recommend that you get a pistol first then upgrade to something like this i would know because i am a aisoft player and the best first airsoft gun is a pistol

Spring rifle is a good starter gun but get an electric rifle instead. G&G;, AGM, Cyma are good brands.

NO!!! This is NOT an airsoft gun! It's a BB gun, it shoots metal not plastic! You'll shoot your eye out!

this is not an airsoft gun! it is a BB gun that can literally hurt somebody. should not be used in an airsoft war.

I'd say no even though I really like this airgun. I don't think it's the best starter for a kid that young. Maybe you're ok with something this powerful but even then there are others that are lighter and easier to cock. I know the Crossman Nitro is much easier to handle. I'm sure there are others but my friend has a Nitro and if I had to pick one for a kid it would be that one over mine. Either way, I'm assuming you know this isn't the same as handing a kid a bb gun. This can do some damage even at a pretty long range.

In my opinion it is a good starter gun ive had mine for a few months with no problems and its a good durable gun

Is it worth the money: yes. Can I build airsoft guns with it: no. At least, not any guns worth $2000. These printers aren't magic and it takes a lot of work and patience to get anything complex working. Most online designs for download don't work and very few are done by talented engineers.

Yes it is, its built solidly and would be good in the hands of an experienced airsoft player.

I wouldn't know because they didn't send me a Boyi BI-3081A. They sent me a uk arms gun witch seem to be different brands and it just what wasn't advertised. I know your probably interested in this because its cheap, but in the end your like I spent 20-50 dollars on this? it's better just to go with a G&G; combat machine because they're the cheapest and best beginner guns I've purchased after being really disappointed with this purchase. its a bit more expensive but I don't feel like I bought a badly made piece of junk.

It's an airsoft gun that shoots little plastic bbs. Not a toy for younger children

I would reccomend it , a lot of junk and toys out there, this is a good entry level and good quality for the price range, I think the pull distance is adjustable on this one that is why I bought this one , there are smaller ones out there but that 11 year old will start growing fast trust me, he should be lucky to get one, remember to lay down the saftey rules first, hugo's online had the best price last year, a straw hay bale wrapped in a plastic bag makes a good cheap target

If you intend to use this for backyard airsoft yes. But because it's range and fps are very poor this is no good for any kind of actual airsofting on for instance an airsoft field. Your money would best be spent elsewhere

i i were looking for a bad*** gun i would choose the UHC 1911 Airsoft PISTOL even though its a pistol you cant get better than a 1911! :good luck

Yes I would highly recommend this gun if you are a beginner. But I would look into finding a better p90 mag. The gravity fed mag that came with this gun sucks, but it does the job.

it's a decent buy, but only depending on what you're getting it for. if your getting one for sport or anything else that requires the firepower, then no and you need to go higher end by all means. if your talking about something for cosplay or other miscellaneous geekdom, then it's perfect for the price and will handle most abuse you toss at it.

I think so. I was really pleased with the purchase. It shoots real fast and is pretty accurate. I would suggest getting a speed loader(the cheap ones work just fine) because the magazine holds about 30 bb's and if you shoot in auto it will shoot them pretty quick. Other than that.... In my opinion the gun is pretty much well made and haven't given me any problems so far.

I love mine. No buyers remorse or anything like that. One thing I would suggest would be to upgrade the build plate though as the acrylic plate warps. If you can design it in a 3D modeling program, you can print it (for the most part). So to answer your questions, Yes, imo, it is worth the money. I would imagine that you could build airsoft guns with this with mostly printed parts. Would still need springs and such like that though of course.
