| I cant decide whether to buy 2 or 3 cheap loaners for my dumb friends who depend on me to provide guns for them or to buy myself a nice sidearm, I was thinking of a kwa usp compact. What would you do |

| Sidearm all the way, unless those kids are the only people you play with. Then I would get the guns that way I could insure my fun. |

| Well if you're really in need of a sidearm go for that. Worry about yourself first then your friends who cant save up a tiny bit of $$. Altho if you're going for cheap loaners: flea market. I went there today for some reason and I now have my place for buying loaners. Decent pistols under $10. |

Buy loaners if they're your only option. Another gun won't do you any good if you have no one to play with.
It's best to keep the guns at the same level of performance. It ensures everyone gets a fair chance and that no one person has a gun that's much better. If one person keeps winning, the others won't want to play. |

| Do they have any guns? I wouldn't spend any more than you have to...have you looked for other teams in your area? |

I have bought many guns to be loaners for my friends just because that way you have someone to play airsoft with even w/o tournements.
But thats cause i have no other people to play with... and they are starting to buy their own.
If you get them into it enough where they buy their own, then you have made a good choice. |

| I wouldn't buy stuff for other people unless you had to: I have a stash of great loaners, but I don't like to play with freeloaders anymore, because they still tend not to take care of it, and I don't care how good a bargain I got on it, they pay nothing and break **** I payed for and gave to them out of generosity. |

| Yeah, go with the sidearm. If you have lots of other people to play with besides your cheapo friends, then why bother wasting money on crappy springers. |

definently go with the side arm becuase you dont wont to have to pay for everything...
But if your friends are the only airsofters then have them pitch in as much as they can and buy some new guns! |

| Considering that you are buying stuff for "dumb friends", people can get you into a lot of trouble with your own airsoft guns. Not a good idea in my opinion. |
