I really need an AFFORDABLE side arm

Hey guys;
I've been looking around for some good pistols, and I must say I'm at a loss.
Picking rifles is one thing, at least for me, because you are naturally attracted to some more than the other.
Now first things first, gas or electric?
Then what brand and types are affordable, like 20 (doubt it) to 70 dollars.
Links are appreciated
thanks

I got a nice gas for under 80, it's co2 which I find actually better becouse you can reload during games. I've head really bad things about electric. hope this helps.

I've heard good things about the CYMA G18c. That is the one that I am gonna get

Electric pistols will lead to frustration and anger, stay away from them. Get a good gas handgun. To get a nice Green Gas gun, you usually have to spend atleast $120, correct me if I'm wrong. But you can usually get some pretty decent Co2 handguns like Silent said. Co2 also will work in the cold. they are generally more hard-hitting, and conserve gas efficiently, but are less realistic. You should have a good selection on ShortyUSA.com

yea i have a C02 1911 and it works well even in the cold i played in 30 below zero (i livein maine and that's with windchill) and works perfectly like it was 70 degrees out

using Co2 in the cold is a bad idea...I hear that co2 has a high freezing point (like 45 f) and below that it starts to turn to a liquid witch is bad for your gun, correct me if im wrong...
o and TSD gas m9 for $40

The CYMA Glock 18 is about the only semi good quality sidearm you can get for that price. If you want a decent GBB you looking at $120+.

I think we had a semi in depth talk about the CYMA glock in another thread.
