That depends on what you're planning to do with it. If you plan on playing with others, by shooting at eachother, like a paintball match, you should get airsoft. If you plan on just shooting by yourself at beercans or whatever, you should get an air gun. I myself have an air gun too, and I sometimes shoot with it in my backyard. I haven't done so in ages though. Airsoft isn't as entertaining as firing an air gun. An air gun shoots tiny metal ''bullets'', while an air soft gun shoots plastic balls. The plastic balls are handy when you're playing with others, but would probably disappoint you when shooting by yourself.

Question for airsofters:

Can airsoft pistol cause any damage if shot at a person? How strong airsoft pistols, lets say, spring are?

Airsoftguns has a huge variation, normaly it goes from M100 to M200 springs 100/200meters per second.

So basicly, assault rifles usualy have 90-120mps without saftey distance, support guns are usually 150mps. Sniper rifles is semi or bolt action and can therfore have up to 200mps, but all these have diffrent saftey distances.

So if you're looking to buy a pistol, these are normaly 70-90mps by the reason these are for CQC. Pistols run on gas or Co2 (springers is not something you even want to consider, the reason is its low quality).

I've been hit by a huge variation of guns, it hurts there and then sometimes. But you're all safe as long you wear saftey glasses or mask.

I would recommend an GBB Airsoft gun its pretty much an Airgun but you can still use it in matches.

GBB Airsoft guns are really expensive, atleast here.. I mean , well, i can buy it for that price, but i mean, it will cost additional huge expenses while getting co2 gas...

If cash is an issue I would suggest a spring Airsoft Rifle, usually around 400 - 500 FPS and they are usually extremely accurate.

I'm more into pistols.. If i would want a rifle, i could get an air gun for the same price as the airsoft rifle..

Then get an airgun, airsoft is like crap if you look to spend time on targets.. The airsoft BB's gets easily taken by the wind and is not as accurate as the airguns.
