hey guys/gals im 18 and new to the sport. i have 2 pistols and will be receiving a riffle for christmas. saw your forums. so i thought id join

so hey

what kinda pistols do you have and waht kinda rifle are you getting?

my parents wont let me buy the ones that are black. so they are clear. im getting the DPMS Panther A15

i have a sig sauer P226 and a cheap palco 5-0 that i stole from a friend. i only took it because its open breech and shoots paintball bbs. both of which are spring loaded.

most anything will shoot paintball bb's. the question is do you want to use paintball bb's in it. with paintball bb's if you dont have a high enough velocity they wont break on impact and if you have too high of a velocity theyll break inside the gun and mess it up

i had a dpms ar-15 for a while, best spring rifle i ever had, till it broke in half. it only broke cause it was in a bag with some other stuff and my brother set it upside down and the fore-grip cracked off of the body. treat it well and itll last ya.

the p226 is pretty decent. i dont like how the 2 bb's fall out when you take the magazine out though (i did that every now and then to check how many rounds were left durring games). the uch 1911 is my favorite spring pistol though. i can hit a telephone poll from about 50 feet with it and a 3'x3' target from about 25 feet.

as far as the other pistol you have, ive never even heard of it.

but stay away form anything made by falcon or neonfire.

yeah i hate that about the P226 also. everyonce and a while i hit the mag release and then they fall all over the place. im glad you liked your panther a15 i read the review on here about it and it makes me even more excited to get it and open it up and begin using it.

do you have a link to the uch1911. sounds like a good pistol. id like to check it out.
