"Why, I was your age, we had to walk 9 miles, uphill, and in the snow for our airsoft." LOL. I wish this had been around in my teen years. My stuff pays for itself every time I use it. One of my friends asked how much one of my guns costs, and his reply was "You could buy a real one for that much money." He's right. I could, and I have. And where's it now? Same place it always is, sitting in my closet locked up. Every couple of months, or so, I hit the range and burn up a few rounds. Fun, but expensive. Seems like anything fun is expensive, though. When I pointed out that he spent about the same amount on his kayak, it made sense.
