I'm 25, I have looked into Ukara and will wait until I get that sorted before I decide to buy, right now is getting a feel for things including what kind of weapon would be a good "starter". I have heard shards can sometimes get through the mesh goggles and visibility can be darker at times? I do have some lenses and I will probably use those for the time being until I get a feel for equipment and try whats most comfortable.

Hi, Newbie here with no real clue where to start! I have a few questions about airsoft and best way to get started. So I am from the West Midlands area and struggling to find a local airsoft store. The closest location I can find near me is in Coventry "the grange". I'd like to give airsoft a try so I am thinking about booking a day and renting a gun as I have seen some videos on youtube and it looks like great fun and something i'd be hooked on. It looks like it's £47 for a full day skirmish. I have been looking into buying a gun if I do decide airsoft is right for me. I understand some basic terms but have no experience in weapon types / usages but I feel an electric (AEG? is it?) M4 would be the best choice for me just starting out. I have looked on a few UK stores and struggling to find anywhere with stock. Most of them say "out of stock" is it normal or do most do a "order to buy" style system? When it comes to gun attachments like sights / magazines are they universal fittings or do some only fit certain guns ? My Budget is around £90-£120 at the moment but I am thinking it might be worth saving more and get something with quality as opposed to getting cheaper gun which only lasts a few weeks. Next question is any recommendation on face protection? I've seen a few on Amazon but the stock seems to be pretty restricted and I don't want to buy something that will break quickly... It seems America has a much bigger selection of equipment I'm sure I will have multiple questions that come up but who knows, if I do get hooked I may bump into a few members of this forum at play sites!
