Hey Gunny, here's a few links about Airsoft. (We were talking about it last night.)
Paintball is cool too...just thought we sould weigh our options. The Airsoft guns are a lot more lifelike.

The sun has fallen down
And the billboards are all leering
And the flags are all dead at the top of their poles.
What's the difference between Airsoft and regular paintball?

If you were a zombie and I had to kill you, I'd feel sad.
Airsoft = soft bb pellet, realistic guns.
Paintball = big liquid filled ball that splats when it hits you, unrealistic guns.
Gun cost is about the same. Ammo seems simliar too. Biodegradable ammo is available.
Here's a good comparison .
I'm up for either/both. We need to find a good field/wooded area to play in (without getting shot by hunters)

Looks like the Yoga classes are working!

Here's my thought: we all buy one of these Airsoft guns then meet at a mutually agreed upon location and shoot each other.

Sounds good to me. How about 39.59N 98.35W on February 7th?
2 points if you can guess what's there.

My friend's son has an airsoft gun. They shoot little yellow plastic BBs at high speed and fast rate. His looks like a realistic gun but only about 1ft long compared to a real M16. At close range they can sting and they are battery powered. Though little yellow BB's are all over the place too. I belive he got his at a sporting goods store called Academy. His was made of plastic but only cost $20
A friend of mine plays airsoft, and the guns they get are quite expensive and don't use batteries, but co2. The more realistic, the more powerful, the more expensive.

I am feeling sick tonight so I won't be playing any games, but I would definately be interested in following through with this. Hopefully we can get a good turn out and make this a tradition, even if only twice a year or something. Let's get some prices together for folks so they have an idea of cost.

Check out these links for comparison:
The following site has guns that start at around 15 bucks. They feature guns that tend to be toy-like, complete with orange barrel plug. The prices are good, but the guns themselves tend to look a bit hammy.

The following link is really cool. It's a company that specializes in making movie props, but has a large section on realistic airsoft guns. These are 1 to 1 scale models of the originals that start at around 400 dollars on the cheap end.

I like the redwolf site the best, the gun i want is around $1400 though. I guess I will have to go for something with a little less punch but much more reasonable in price.

I think you could get a useable gun for < 100, but would probably need to spend 250-300 to get something satisfying like an MP5.

Now this is intriguing, and looks to be more interesting than a LAN party....
