New to Airsoft, Lots of Questions for Historic Pistols!

Well as crazy as it might sound I have been attracted to airsoft due to wanting to possibly join some reenactment groups. My main problem right now is finding a P38 (preferred) or Luger that works decently and I honestly have no Idea where to find one for a good price! So far I am looking at the We Luger, as for the P38 I can't seem to find any!

Any and all help would be great folks!

Well WW2 airsoft is a growing community, and is definitely a cool thing. and they can always use more axis players.

WE makes both a luger and p38, id recommend one of those.

We cannot post links to retailer/or gun sites here as this section is not age verified. If you are 18+ I suggest you contact an Age Verifier about getting age verified, after that there is an age verified section we can share links to the airsoft guns you are looking for. And you can learn about importing airsoft guns.

Check out the World War 2 sections, lots of nice guys there and always willing to help out a new guy!

heres a link to the information center:

simply click your province and contact your near AV rep

Done and Done! Thanks! Ya I found a few but was told they leak or are junk guns @_@ (Also im 27 so this should be verified rather fast I hope lol!)

Once the Vare is done at least I can get some help finding a deal @_@ locally these guns are marked up through the roof and online I can't seem to figure out what is better or what P38\Luger is better. (Really people seem to hate the WE..........I was told to find a Maruzen? P38)

WE does make some WWII stuff, but wouldn't count on their QC to last you in the long run.. they are good for collectors imo. (no spare parts for those guns, not like their G17, etc.)

IIRC Airsoft Depot has the luger and p38 in stock. 240-280?

There's a big wwii group here in Toronto, think theres a post in the "Ontario Teams" or Ontario section, check it out, maybe give one of them a PM, they might be able to help you / recommend you items.

Oh neat thanks! ya, I was told the p38 isn't legal due to being 4mm? or something. I am thinking of just going for the WE Luger since I found it for 219 or so only problem is the place I found it doesn't have a propane conversion kit or free shipping unless I buy a few extra mags i guess......

No, just buy a bag at a time locally.

If you find you've picked the wrong weight or brand you'll be stuck with cases of useless BBs if you go the bulk route.

There were still bags of Metal Techs at Dave's Tactical for cheap.

Don't buy cheap BB's, they can explode or crack inside your gun from the force of the air in the receiver.
As for buying bulk, it depends on whether or not you know what weight to use. My friend bought 60,000 BB's at once and got a discount from the owner of the shop.

bbs are literally 10-20 bucks for a bag of quality .20s. don't cheap out on BBs.

Ammo is cheaper than a broken gun
