What do you mean by a gun that shoots airsoft shells? I have a shot gun that loads from a fake shell, but what gun shoots a shell? Can you give me an example?

Also, I would not buy from airsplat if I were you, they do not have good customer service and the products they have for cheap are not very good quality.

Hey, if you realy want a shot gun, go to www.airsplat.com all of their guns are pretty cheap. but if i where you, i would get a shotgun (i want one) that shoots airsoft shells, (they should be re-useable). but you don't have to buy one that shoots shells, another idea is buying one that loads three BB's in at once. and if anything, buy pistol-grip. considering it is a close range single shot, shot-gun, you are going to want all the pumping speed you can get. you can't pump as fast if you have a non-pistol grip.

However, there is a problem, if you pump to hard, you make end up breaking your gun in half (yes, i learned this from experiance (i broke my friends older one), what you want to do is pump fast, but not hard.
I don't recommend a shotgun; it fancy for no benefit.  Get a traditional gun that's easy to use and simply works without "shells" or whatever.

Another site to check is http://www.pyramydair.com/ .  I had a great experience with them and would not use Airsplat.

http://www.pyramydair.com/  Is a really good site to use, but there prices arent the best.
Also, http://www.airsoftforum.com/board/forums.html is a forum for airsoft stuff, they also have a buy/sell/trade sections where you can sometimes get really good deals on airsoft stuff.

You can also check craigslist from time to time.

Not all shotguns break fast. If you get a good quality brand shotgun, it will last you awhile.

Im still not sure what a shotgun that shoots shells is. Could someone plz link me to one? Or show me an example?

You know it doesnt actually shoot those shells, right? It just feed BB's from them. They are like the magazines.

Here are the guns I have:

Crosman C11 CO2 Pistol (420-480 FPS)
http://www.pyramydair.com/p/crosman-c11-bb-gun.shtml

Crosman NightProwler SA Full-Auto Rifle (325 FPS)
http://www.crosman.com/airsoft/rifles/SAPNSCB

If you get CO2, you have to buy the CO2 itself and lubricant separate.  Let me know if you get a CO2; I'll send you more links to that stuff.

I would not suggest getting any crossman guns, becuase they are not high quality.

I have heard that yet I have had no trouble with my guns; I've enjoyed them immensely.  The price was right and I've never had a problem.  Is there a brand that you recommend?

Depending on your budget, I could recomend some brands. Most good brands are more expensive.
Its hard to find a good electric gun for under $100, but if you look at craigslist and other places you may find some.

TM VSR 10 + all the upgrades  :o also the TM high capa automatic pistol with metal internal upgrade  :o

TM has awesome potential (and they have the parts for the potential) you just need a little modding

I meant their AEGs. With Upgrades, any TM gun is extremely awesome, especially the VSR 10. I was thinking about getting a JG Bar 10, then upgrading it alot. What upgrades did your TM VSR 10 have?

If you plan to get a stock Tokyo Marui and use it, prepare to be dissapointed. TMs are only good if you upgrade them. They dont shoot very far becuase of a low FPS (around 280) and alot of their parts (gearbox and externals) are plastic. This applies only to their Electric rifles.

Don't worry, you weren't at all.

Cameron's was good.

Compared to what?
When compared to this http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?cPath=139_24_150&products_id=2881 or this http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?cPath=139_24_150&products_id=1976 it's not very good.
But for the price, its ok.

Ok, you little new comer, you need to back off, that was flat out rude.
Austin, come on. :P  He wasn't rude and you need to stop acting like a :police: here.


And yeah, I know there is better stuff than the Crosman that I have, but I've spent about $100 total, a good bargain in my mind.  $ > perfect functionality for me.  I'm happiest with the C11.  About $45 total for a CO2 backup pistol that shoots fast and has full metal internals?  Good in my cheap mind. :D
