for CQB games you would want a small gun, one that could maneuver corners easily, and generally, with an fps of less than 350, (or be ready to pay to have a spring cut) so you can play at a local field (check your local field's rules of play and follow them, no one likes a dishonest airsofter) If you play a good mixture of both, but don't have the budget for multiple guns, a carbine is a great option. do you enjoy laying down a fearful rain of plastic on you enemies, or instilling fear and uncertainty with, few, well placed shots? some things to consider are *styles you like *budget *playing area (NEVER play on public land, this gives all airsofters a bad name, only used licensed fields) *ammo capacity *how much ammo you use weight you want to carry so, for field games, you would more than likely want a gun with a medium to long barrel length, good shoulder support, ect. for example, an m16 would not be the best for cqb, considering it could prove very unwieldly around corners, whereas the mp5k, measuring about a foot long, is considered by some to be the ultimate cqb machine. what style of gaming do you like best? CQB(close quarters battle)?, Field? Certain guns are suited to certain environments.

So, you've decided you'd like to get in to the wonderful world of airsoft? well, Oniman and I, Jakee117, are here to help.
