87GT Posted December 26, 2007 Report Share Posted December 26, 2007 That army surplus store on Morse road has a lot of options. I am not into airsoft guns but they look realistic hanging on the wall. I always wanted to buy an MP5 or an AK47 airsoft gun from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HotCarl Posted December 26, 2007 Report Share Posted December 26, 2007 Im almost positive theres a specialty airsoft store in Upper Arlington/Columbus somewhere. They have a website, try googling it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copperhead Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 I'm pretty sure there is a specialty airsoft place by one of the old meet spots on cleveland avenue, I think it was the thrift store? Right behind the sunoco? It's been a while since i've been there. If not there, maybe it was beside Iron Pony. One of those two places. Someone help me out here, my memory sucks balls. I swear there's something of that nature at one of those two locations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grease monkey Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 There is a place next to the iron pony, Looks like all they sell is airsoft stuff. I work at the auto zone in the same plaza. I have never been in there, they seem to keep some strange hours? I think its called airsoft arms...

RedRocket1647545505 Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 What are the point of these airsoft guns? Think realistic combat, minus the paintballs, plus the honor system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion Posted December 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 The last thing a brothah needs is something that looks like a gun but cant shoot nobody. given my supposed genetic predisposition to "bust a cap in somebody's ass", i think that a real looking gun that cant shoot is exactly what i need. seriously, i want to do some plinking inside the city limits that wont rile my old ass neighbors up and i dont want to pay for range fees. also, if i decide i want to check an event out, i dont want to take my spring loaded, single shot plastic gun out on the field with guys using fully automatic m4 look-a-likes.

STEVE-O Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 ive wanted a gun for a while but not to sure what i should get. want something that holds at least 500 pellets and I was wondering what is a good speed gun to look at.

dragknee66 Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 I used to have a tokyo mauri M4, was the shit, sold it all off because I didnt have anyone to team up with around here. I would buy some stuff again if other bought some though. Airsoft > paintball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevethepirate Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 i bought a gas pistol at walmart. definitely not professional or anything, but it looks real! shoots straight through glass windows. hurts like a bitch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 We (me and the roommate) just went to airsoftsmith.com on kenney just off henderson. Its a mom and pop store (read local place that you would want to keep in business.) The guy behind the counter was VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE. We were in there for about an hour and he answered every question we could throw at him. I would recommend them as a local destination. There are several sites locally to play anytime of year, and it looks like it would be a blast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion Posted January 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 got what i was looking for, gas blow back tokyo marui sig 226 rail. this thing is freakin cool. http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h23/lhiannonshee/0102081707.jpg http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h23/lhiannonshee/0102081708.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowgli1647545497 Posted January 3, 2008 Report Share Posted January 3, 2008 Guess I got here late - but if you're looking for more Airsoft gear thats not asstastic go to: http://www.Airsoftsmith.com Tell them Hillslam sent you. Their store is on kenny near old henderson. AirsoftArms by Iron Pony is on the way out. *rumor* DO NOT BUY FROM WALMART, MEIJER, DICKS, THE SURPLUS STORES, ETC. THEY ONLY SELL COMPLETE CRAP, OFTEN COSTING AS MUCH AS THE GOOD STUFF. Complete wastes of money - if you're saddled with one sell it immediately and go hit up AirsoftSmith on Kenny for the full metal goodness. Nice Sig Saur Orion. My father in law is on the Sacramento PD and they use KWC Sigs to train on their realsteel 226s, but I hear the TMs are nicer. BTW - Orion, come out some time and play with us. WARNING: You *will* be hooked. Great fun, great sportsmanship, and great people. For example on our team, besides me, there's: an active Marine, 2 Ex Army, 2 CIOs, 2 EMTs, 1 Net Jets pilot, 1 Doctor, 1 ER Nurse, 3 College students, 1 Aero Engineer (not me), 1 teacher, 1 Concrete contractor, etc etc and so forth. The player mix is alot like that across the board. Ex-military, pre-military, no-military at all. Police, firefighters, kids. Young, old. Way lower asshat ratio than paintball, just by the nature of the game (honor system and non-dayglow ghey spandex outfits makes for more enjoyable sportsmanship, less videogame hijinks). You get outside, you get dirty/sore/banged up, get a workout (like you wouldn't beleive), you have a blast, and a week later end up wanting to do more. There's something about using your gunskills that no amount of plinking, drills, or competition shooting will ever get you. Period. Think you draw a fast bead? Think you're a fast reloader? Try it when they're shooting back and you're pinned. Its a rush. PM me this spring if you're interested. And meanwhile hit up http://www.AirsoftOhio.com and just go right ahead and ignore 90% of the posts: Airsoft has its fill of winter bullshit downtime same as CR does. Then spring rolls around and the events ramp up... Ok I'll quit recruiting. Merry Christmas to myself: http://img178.imageshack.us/img178/195/dsc0007pw91fw6.th.jpg ------------------- EDIT: That goes for the rest of you too, dragknee, mitch and the rest - come out and play with us some time. Nothing like a good big well organized airsoft event for fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragknee66 Posted January 3, 2008 Report Share Posted January 3, 2008 ^ how often do you play? I would consider buying some gear again if I knew people that played. I might even be able to get some others to join as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jelloman4571647545499 Posted January 3, 2008 Report Share Posted January 3, 2008 i too would also be interested in knowing when/where? After paintball this seems to be more organized people. Paintball still has a lot in immature players in their ranks. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
