TBH I'm just getting into it and as hobbies go it's pretty cheap IMO (this is all relative to salary of course).

I've played for 9 games and just gone through 1 bottle of Blaster BB's (.25's) and a 1 1/3 cans of gas that's playing 1/2 days CQB in semi 🙂

 

£15.00 walk on for 4 hours of fun (now I'm a member) and bought a half decent gun G&G M4 £300.00 ish and a WE P226 £90.00 both are working well.Plus mags etc... of course.

Travel is about £15.00 in juice per game.

 

Prior to Airsoft I did mountain biking half decent 2nd hand good full suspension bike and your looking north of £1K new your looking at £2.5 K plus! for a  Tokyo Marui grade

in the  mountain bike world new you would be starting at £4.5K. Plus a couple of sets of tyres (£30 - £50 each a year, new chains (2-3 at £23.00 each) 1 cassette and so on and so forth plus to ride the really good  stuff Lakes, North Wales etc it was £50.00 a day in fuel.

 

So based on what I used to do i find it great value for money 🙂

As above I find AIRsoft great value for money compared to other hobbies!

 

prevous to Airsoft I was heavily into cars (still am) and track days which cost a fortune. Even going to car shows these days mounts up to an expensive day, let alone a full track day

These days now I have the kit I like (with the occasional splash out on something new... which isn't very often) my expenditures are as follows;

  • game fee
  • petrol
  • food/drink
  • bb's (usually 3 1kg bags every 3 or 4 months)

Having played for a fair few years now i have a shed full of stuff that occasionally gets used for other games but other than that you don't really need much for a skirmish other than somewhere for mags, your gun and some ammo. Biggest expendature for me has been the gun I wanted and the gear I like although bargains are always to be found especially on ebay and selling pages and this forum!
