Looking into Airsoft Plymouth(Devon) /Saltash(Cornwall) area

[DaddyM]

Hi guys ?, 

So I'm new here and new to airsofting and just want some advice on areas of play and types of guns/load outs. 

So this is a broad spectrum question obviously so I will narrow it down a little as I have a sort of idea what I want. 

Firstly I live in saltash and am looking for places to play within a 20-25mile radius of here basically. I want to try everything possible for my abilities (next to none as am physically unfit ?). 

Secondly I am looking for AEP's not co2 or green gaz but I want to be able to have a rifle (sniper or assault) and a pistol but be able to interchange the mags. My price range is low so just putting some feelers out ?.

Thanks in advanced

Welcome .

You will find it difficult (nearly impossible) to get any magazines that can fit both a pistol and AEG. 

Have a read of all the pinned (sticky) posts in each section, some very good information for new players.  Start here, if you not alrerady read it:

Hi

You could get a pistol conversion kit, but why?

As a beginner, I would suggest playing with a normal AEG rifle until you get used to Airsoft before jumping in to sniping. 

Borrow one from someone during a skirmish and see if you like it.

Cheers

Mad Momma's Airsoft are local to you, give them a shout they do a game every weekend.  

As for guns, just get a half decent AEG, pistols aren't actually that useful and you don't need 2 guns to play!

Welcome ! @ToGGoT and possibly @Smooth_Operator might be able to recommend shops local to you. 

I'd recommend renting for the first few games to get an idea of what you like. Ask people at games about rifs you like the look of. Most love talking about theirs ?

So thanks everyone for the replies I have had a look at that link jedi thanks I was trying to find a post like that but couldn't ?. Pretty sure I know what to go for now thanks ?.

MisterG in answer to the reason why is simply put pure laziness and a bit of convinience lol. Basically I wanted to be able to say have a I dont know m4 assault and a pistol that could take their mags so I only had to carry one type of mag yes still have say 3/4 for the assault and 2/3 for the pistol but it wouldnt matter what I picked up they would fit both guns ? laziness or genius you decide... . Also I would probably go for a m4 because what I have seen on YouTube.... (yes I know don't always believe the internet) but you can upgrade/mod this type enough to get roughly the same range and power anyways and still have plenty of rail space .

Thanks for the tip with mad mommas will be sure to check them out

Mad Mommas are very good, I miss playing there! Very welcoming and fun bunch to play with. Sadly since moving away from Plymouth Ive not had a chance to go back down to play there
