which pistol should I buy?

So, I've managed to sell my M14 finally! and now its time to start getting what I want!

I want a pistol mainly for CQB and mobility, so Ideally I want full auto, and an extended mag, as I plan on using it as a main gun, not just a sidearm

so this tells me I'm looking at glocks, full auto M9's and TM hicapa extreme's

does anyone have some pointers for me?

I love my KSC Glock 18c's but they're not much good outdoors when it gets cold out and the full auto can be finicky. Occasionally one of them slips out of full auto after a couple bursts. I just installed a metal slide/outer barrel on one of them and it looks and feels pretty sweet, but it has trouble getting more than 10 or so shots on a fill. I imagine if I got some extended mags it would help a bit but I can't really justify spending $70 or so per mag when I already have 4 standard mags.

Be aware that full auto capable pistols get abused and tend to have more problems than semi-auto only versions.

If you want something full auto for indoors you may be better off looking at the electric NBB versions (I picked up a Cyma G18c for around $100) but plan on getting a bunch of batteries as they don't hold much of a charge.

I'm not familiar with the berettas or the hicapa extremes so I can't help with that.

you know, the full auto pistol selection for airsoft seems a littl iffy.

I've kinda fallen in love with the 1911 models, I still kinda want to avoid a glock since I just plain don't like the look, but if a good deal comes by I won't say no.but I guess I'm generalizing the glock far too much. Really, I just want a GBB pistol that's accurate enough for CQB, and close range combat outdoors.

Realistically? I want a good beginner gun that's inexpensive ($200 ish)

so I'm thinking KJW pistol if I'm shopping new, used, I guess we'll see what comes up for deals. I'm really just scoping out the market.

I might be scoring a sig 556 for outdoors and general use


edit: So I spotted the TM glock 18c... I really shouldn't say I like one thing or another generally. I like this gun.

I didn't really like the square look of the Glocks, but after trying a P226, a hicapa, baby hicapa and an M9, the Glock just fit in my hand perfectly. IMO the ported barrels give the compensated models a bit more visual appeal than the plain old boxy Glock, which is why I went with the G18c.

where did you find a G18c? that's a full auto model, isnt it?

there is a Co2 m11 (I think it's an M11 at least...it's a little uzi thing) and they seem to get great reviews and are fairly cheap. I'll see if I can find a link to one in canada.

You used to be able to find these all over the ASC market but

here's a sold one

theres a couple places in town that sell crossman M11 guns, can you get mags for those? They run just over $100

The m11 was not what I was think of, I meant the m50

M50? I'm not familiar with that gun

Assuming you got Age Verified on ASC i'd go here.

Scroll down a ways and there's a bunch of BNIB Pistols.

You were talking airsoft pistols, weren't you? I don't have a restricted PAL so I own no actual handguns, only airsoft and pellet pistols.

The KSC G18c has a fire selector, full or semi auto. I found them all on ASC.

yeah I've been through cotini's armory already. I think the glock 18c would be really cool, but very expensive, so maybe not just yet...

You can get the smoked lower KJW's cheaper. Talk to Jeff from Capital Airsoft.

Just a shot in the dark...did you even look at the links I posted?

Sorry, I kinda glanced over it and thought they were mac 11's. I was making brownies!

I'll take a closer look now xD

also, from what I can see, its an uzi type device, but no full auto? hmm, good thing theres full auto mods! I wonder if you can get mags for these...

edit: okay upon further inspection, there the TF11 (Maruzen mac 11) and the M50 (also re branded maruzen)

so basically the gun I was looking at is the same thing.
