I hardly call a JG MP5 a real weapon though; that's as bare minimum as you can get and is utter shit for outdoor play...low stock power and short barrel a good outside gun does not make. That kind of forces you to get up close, so again you don't know how you actually play. If you get a sniper, I can pretty much guarantee that you'll be sorely disappointed. It's hard to hit people with even a little bit of wind, cycling the bolt wastes a hell of a lot of time (target can move, see you, bolt is slower than a real gun, etc.) for the engagement range, and you have to dump an assload of money into to make it perform respectably. I've tried it with a friend's L96...it was not fun at all.
Like I said, I still think the best "sniper" is a long-barreled AEG capable of semi-auto fire.
And this is why I use my ak47 airsoft gun. One of these days I will test it in my backyard with my friends. We have alot of space to play in.
It extends much farther back btw.
Just have to be weary of the house, and neighbors.
I recently purchased this:
M56C triple shot airsoft shotgun. Today is my first airsoft meet with my brother (sanctus) and his friends. I'll tell you how it goes a little bit later today.
What brand is that and how sturdy is it? Been looking at getting a shotgun for CQB, probably an M1014 style such as this.
It's a very sturdy shotgun, very fun to shoot. The brand is Double eagle:

Overall it cost me 67.98, a bit more expensive than ordering it online or at a Dicks Sporting Good store, probably because I bought it at a small Military Surplus store in Eden, NC.
Next weapon I'm looking to get is a single shot rifle, the surplus store had one for 119, very good quality and I fell in love with it when I test fired it. So far in my area I don't know of any airsoft groups/events and I might end up starting a local thing.
This is the rifle I test fired:

fuck my mp5 now has a dead gear
I assume your gearbox had plastic gears since it was JG? If you gun comes with plastic gears that's the first thing you should replace since they are the parts that take the most repetitive force, and if you upgrade to metal gears you should upgrade your piston to something with metal teeth as well so your gears don't strip the piston teeth. You can usually get away with a piston that has a single metal tooth (usually titanium on the quality pistons) near the front, this way you can loose a couple other teeth and still have a working gun.
My G36 came with metal teeth, but they're not great quality... The metal isn't very strong and the piston teeth are all plastic and starting to wear out/chip. I'll be upgrading my gears, piston, piston head, nozzle, spring, motor, and possibly hop-up unit (with one of the single piece metal hop-ups) once I can afford to get it all at once. I'm also going to grab a fairly long suppressor and a 500mm 6.01mm inner barrel for outdoor, barrel swaps on the CA G36 series take something like a minute so it's easy to switch out for the shorter 6.01mm when playing indoor.
