Hey, the name is Ryan. I am new to airsoft, as I have never played before. I play lots of paintball and have two guns, a spyder and a pump action gun. I ordered a CYMA Ak-47 that should be arriving any day now. I'm really excited to go out and get playing especially in a Milsim. My buddy "Shemagh" ordered a Well R8 (G3 SAS) after I told him how cool airsoft would be, so when I come out, it'll most likely be the two of us. Can't wait to kill people.....but not...lol. New gun isn't coming soon enough, lol.

welcome to the board !
We start to have a nice bunch of"milsim" people, that's good !
let's plan a 24h game !!

Great to have you on the boards Ryan. I'm Dave, hope to see you at a game soon.

I heard your AK47 arrived today? We will have to go out and check it out tommarow night. So what came with it when it arrived?

Mine will come soon!

Shemagh

Indeed, it did arrive today. Only took 5 buisness days too It came with a hi-cap magazine, battery and charger, a rod to clean out jammed bb's, 100 bb's, instructions booklet, 2 paper targets, and a shoulder sling.
I took it out today on half a charge, because I was fooling around with it a bit yesterday, but it still lasted a good two and a half hours until it died. It shot dead acurate after I adjusted the hop up a bit. I found that the rounds are affected by the wind quite a bit, but in the bushed where you are sheltered from the wind, it fired dead accurate. I had tons of fun totally demolishing a pop can on fully auto mode, which was a fun experience. WOW, so much better than shooting that damn crossman bb rifle that I bought way back, where you have to pump it, then load in a round then fire, etc. etc. Although obviously the bb gun shoots a lot faster and contains a lot more wheight in the BB, so it's does a better job of peircing the can, but then again, I've been shot with those and F%&# do they hurt....lol.
Anyways, I'll stop blabbing, but the only other thing I wanted to say about paintball vs airsoft, is that when I told my friend to shoot me in the back with an airsoft round, just to feel what it was like, I was expecting it to hurt more than a paintball. I don't know why, that was just my logic, but it didn't. It hurt LESS!!! I LOVE IT!! MUAHAHAHAHHAA

The only problem with it hurting less, is that sometimes you don't feel it at all so you really have to pay attention and listen for them.

I have a question about maintenance of my rifle. Does anyone have any tips? Like what type of oil I should use, and where I can get it. That and where are the key places to oil, etc.

buy silicon spray from princess auto and spray it into the BB feeding tube.

I can do that....thankyou...but is that all? Seems really easy compared to paintball.

Just make sure it doesn't contain any petroleum distillates.
