This is why I recommended all spring powered airsoft guns in this article. Also, being a beginner, who has just stepped into the world of airsoft, you must not spend too much on your first gun as you will take time to learn the art of shooting. So, there is a good amount of chance that you really mess up your first gun because of lack of knowledge and expertise, so spend less at first. So, which one of the above-mentioned three airsoft guns, would you like to have as your first airsoft gun?
