I know nothing about these and I'm thinking of buying one. I would mainly use it to plink with and maybe spread some vengeance on the neighbors cat. I know that no self respecting ARFCOMMER would own one of these, but if they did what are some manufacturers to look at?

*EDIT* Fixed before the spelling nazis.

Do you want a shitty WalMart version or a higher end rig?

If you want to spend upwards of 300 to 500 for quality get tokyo marui/ classic army/ ICS/ G&P these are all companies with good electric guns.

Classic Army is the way to go.

Use BBs not airsoft for cats. You need something that will sting through the fur coat. From what I have seen airsoft only causes fear.

Pretty good way to go to jail.

If the cat's bothering you, call animal control and give your neighbors something to think about. Don't set yourself up for some misery with the law.

Thanks for the replys. I looked up the Classic Army airsofts and am thinking about the DSA OSW. Does anyone know anything about this one?

Classic Army, Tokyo Marui, etc. are nice. But I think the Airsoft Elite (upgraded ICS) are better for the money.

you will catch more hell for talking about popping cats than you will for asking about airsoft, historically

Unfortunately Heavy6 is on a mission overseas and won't be available for some time.

Fixed it.

Edit: Only where legal, and if you intend to eat. Not just for fun.
