Ok, at least where I play, you have to be 14. Yes, please do not have backyard battles running around like idiots shooting each other and promoting anti-airsoft laws. You should probably be able to play. Google your state and then airsoft. ex- "Minnesota airsoft. That's were I found my place to fight.

Alright, if you even want to keep up, you need a decent AEG. Thats gonna cost you $100-150 for a nice stock gun. Stick to brands like JG, Echo 1, and the newer the newer CYMAs. They are not the best, but are probably the best for their price.

Try this site. Please, for the love of God, avoid airsplat and hobbytron.

It's a great site. Its the only site I buy off of. Its got great prices but mainly awesome service.

Ok, what to look for in a AEG-

1. Good brand. Good brand usually means good internals.

2. Internal strength. You need it. It means your AEG will not break. Choose internal over external strength all the time.

3. ABS body. Usually, a ABS plastic body will do you fine. It is not needed to have a full-metal AEG. I love the feel of a full-metal AEG, but it is not a reason to buy a bad internal AEG over a full-metal AEG.

Hears are some good starter airsoft guns-

Buy a gun, a nice charger, a spare battery, at least three hicaps, a military style pants/jacket, and .20 BBs.

Good luck. Email me if you have any questions.

Well the sad thing is Airsoft is really not a huge organized sport like games such as paintball, I myself am looking for a team right now. A good place to start looking is air socom(link below) and scroll through all the teams until you find one in your area. As far as gear goes i would start with www.airsplat.com , from here you can get a range of guns, from crappy to professional, and as far as gear goes i would suggest looking at www.redwolfairsoft.com for that. Also if you want to get a decent gun, which is professional but still affordable i would suggest http://www.airsplat.com/Items/ERA-CA-M15...

This gun is kind of like a hybrid, it has good internals but is plastic on the outside, thus making it affordable.

Oh and of course goggles, i would suggest "arena Flakjaks" they are cheap and extremely effective, you can find them on ebay for 18 dollars to your door.

So, i hope my information was useful, and the best of luck to you.
