What gun to buy?

Still after couple weeks me and friends going for paintball fights maybe I will be able to get hands on good airsoft rifle :)

would like that it would be automatic/semi automatic with switch from single fire to auto

Max What I would like to spend for gun is 150 or it's even not worth for 150 ?

and what sites you using to get airsoft guns?
You seem to be getting a little bit mixed up between paintball and airsoft.
They are completely different sports. Airsoft uses replica weapons and shoot 6mm plastic bbs. Paintball uses non replica weapons and uses gas paintball markers. You need to attend 3 Airsoft skirmishes in no less than 2 months to be able to buy a RIF (realistic imitation firearm. I.e black non two tone)

What I'd do if I was you is find a good local site. Go and rent a gun for a 3 games until you've tried it and know what gun you like. Sign up for Ukara then you can get a RIF.

you might like to consider a used gun. Most airsofters are responsible adults and take very good care of their kit so you would be unlucky to buy a dud. Choose your ideal gun, ask about which brand to look for then check the classifieds (once you have a UKARA) for the one you want. I have bought 3 guns from people and not one repair has been necessary

For 150 get a G&G CM16

Proairsoftsupplies are great!

Also I'd recommend not to rent. if you rent it'll cost you 60 minimum. If you buy a two tone CM16 and either sell (20-40 loss) when you got UKARA or swap the parts (around 30?) / paint it (fiver?) - and you dont need to use a beaten up rental the first months.
