would it be a good idea to get an electric blowback M1911 from http://www.icefire-enterprises.com/M1911e.html I read some reviews on ebb's and most of them put them down. i read the review of the G18c on this site. which was one choice i had in mind but after that i'd rather stick to my spring DE.50. so im wondering would it be better to get a spring pistol as a sidearm or a gas. my main primary is a M16 Style AEG. heres the webpage http://www.airsoft-shop.biz/item/B0007XX9F8 I would really appreciate your input on my situation

I would say, if you are in AEG battles, don't get ebb's for backups. AEPs or springers, maybe. If you have the money, I would go with a gas pistol.

Im just tryin to get gear right now i still havent found a decent place to play so im just trying to figure out whats what in the airsoft world. i own 2 springers and that M16 Style AEG now i need a better sidearm just in case, you skrimagers know how it is, your in a tight spot and your rifle is dry, your glad that you got that sidearm, thats what im tryin to avoid, being in that position without a sidearm

AEG battles:

Primary = AEG
Backup = High powered spring pistol, AEP, or Gas pistol.

EBBs only shoot about 100-120 fps max.

Spring battles:

Primary = Spring rifle

Back-up = Any pistol(even EBB's, but they still won't have enough range for those long-ish shots)

If you got a gas gun, it would outpreform your m4, which i believe is a Double Eagle. It shoots around 150fps while a gas gun would be 280ish and up with a .2.

Oh. Your "AEG" is actually a LPEG. Sorry, I didn't click the link before. In that case, an EBB will be semi-OK for LPEG battles.

Check out the "Retail Stores" section of this forum, there are plenty of sites there were you can find stuff cheaper. I got the "M16" (actually an M4) you bought for 35 bucks...

Also, note that the M4 you got is an LPEG. Low Powered/Priced Electric Gun. AEGs start at 100 bucks and go to 1,500 I think, and shoot much harder.

Here is a good site for LPEGs/EBB/springers:

http://www.wholesalecentral.com/airsoftzone/store.cfm

They have the DE M4, CYMA AK47, and even the BE Tech AUG for $26-30 each, although you have to order a minimum of $100. Their customer service is top notch. I'm getting all of these guns from them for $119:

Double Eagle M4
BE Tech AUG
JLS 1911
JLS 1911
JLS MK23
JLS G18c
JLS P226
STI Desert Eagle
WELL M16a1
