noob question
 

I have a friend quite a ways away and he has a few TM's he says they work good, he's offering me 380 for a m4a1 RIS or a stock Aug for 340 The receiver is grinded up but it still preforms good. They both do 280 fps. I am wondering about the strength in the fore grip on the m4 and the accuracy between the two, which would be a better choice. I am not 18 so I need a guardian.

option 3, wait till your 18 save up some money and invest in a nice high end gun right from the get go

but otherwise if i HAD to choose, id go with the M4 simply cus there are allot more options for them

As much as it seems not true 18 is not far away and he is going sell them for more if I don't buy. I don't want to spend to much on airsoft at the time, maybe I will think differently later.

You'll be that much further ahead if you save your money now and invest it wisely when you are of legal age (verified) and able to purchase an airsoft gun!
