I had to wait too. . .Three years. Play paintball in the meantime and work on being a tactical player rather than a 'speed-ball spray and pray' player. You can win entire games in airsoft without fireing a single shot.
Be patient, Ask questions, Do your homework and reasearch. when you're old enough it'll all be open to you. There's even the unlikely chance you may not even like this game. I have firends that would rather play paintball becasue 'airsoft is too slow'. I think they're crazy.

no way i play woodsball and my favourite part is the tactical side but the thing with paintball is that there arnt a whole bunch of team players or tactics, i hope airsoft is different

Mmmm I dont really enjoy the sniper. so many people especially the younger ones seem lured to this mythic view as the sniper in a god position to quietly remove their enemy with rutheless effeciency. although being a sniper is useless unless you KNOW how to be a sniper. from video games to paintball to airsoft lots of people want the sniper position but get maybe 2 kills after setting up for 20 min then their spotted, zero'd and taken out.
Unless you have a background with long range shooting and concealment tactics the sniper isnt for you when you could be much more effective with an assault rifle. sniping is for snipers, that why their position is so attractive. they have a nack for it and have the necessary training or skills. I've taken out hundreds of wanna-be snipers hiding behind logs with my sidearm. they cant make the far range shot so they move up closer to the battle or their impatient and move closer for more kill opportunity's. then they get shot and wasted most of the game loooking for a hiding spot they abandoned for more kills and in turn get shot... see the vicious circle? sniping is like being an actor, tonnes of people do it but only a few make it, and their presence then inspires more failure from the bottom barrel. I dunno its not too often that I come by a successful sniper. to me it isnt worth it dropping the cash for the gun and the gear for such a narrow niche that most really, REALLY suck at. |

You don't know how rewarding it is sitting completely still for 20 minutes waiting for the enemy to get bored and move out of their position... then finally getting that kill and them going "AWW I DIDNT KNOW THERE WAS SOME ONE THERE"

An M14 is probably a better choice if you want the best of both world . . . but I don't own one so I can't say beyond first impressions.

They might, If your mature, follow all the rules, and have your parents involved. I'm 16 and i play. When you turn 16, try contacting local hosts asking if you can come to game, even just to watch
