Spotter

Hey everybody,
I'm getting back into airsoft, haven't been into it for a while and I have forgotten almost everything. I'm looking for a spotter's gun, mid to long range, AEG, preferably something in the range of $200-$250. The field I play on is very open, 100+ yards usually, but there are some buildings and bunkers, ect.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Shinigami

I recommend the G&G M14. Very nice gun

Anything you think I might need right away as in upgrades or extras?

No need to upgrade anything straight away, you can wait awhile for those. You might want to get a scope mount ( http://www.airsoftpost.com/product_info.php?products_id=28764 ) if you want to put optics on the gun.

What kind of gear do you have in terms of carrying magazines, etc?

Like I said, I'm just getting back into it. I don't have anything anymore, starting from scratch again.

Ah, okay. Well, eventually, you could invest in a MOLLE vest of some sort and then get magazines and pouches for it. But for now I think the G&G M14 should hold you over for a while.

Thanks for the help. I appreciate it.
By the way, do you know any games that happen in Wisconsin, in the Milwaukee area?

you may want to go check your area in the area of the forum used for that (can't remember the name off the top of my head- sorry)

There aren't any that I know of exactly in the Milwaukee area, but there is one I think near Madison (closer to Milwaukee) and there is one north of West Bend... I'm not quite sure how long it takes to get to that one, but its quite a bit less than going all the way to the one near Madison. The one near West Bend also has a store in West Allis.

Here is a link to the field near West Bend- http://www.thewargameroom.com/

Hey, buddy, some advice for you. If you have no way to carry your mags, purchase some BDU trousers and throw your mags in the cargo pockets. The trousers will have at least two advantages for you: durability in a field environment and a place to keep your mags. Hope that helps

Prob you want an AEG rifle like a dragunov but shorter like an m14

Great suggestion by Drummer. The M14 is perfect for a spotter, and G&G is a solid company.

I've been looking around, and I like the M-14, but what do you guys think of AirsoftGI's guns? I was looking at their DMR.

They use G&G Combat Machine guns as base guns for the G4 line. They'e solid guns and one of the best in their price range. ASGI just is offering some extra goodies to go along with with the gun for some extra cash.

So I'm undecided. There are two choices I have, both are about the same price. I need some opinions and advice here.
There's the G&G M14.
And then there's the Airsoft GI G4-A3 with this battery and this charger as I have none of these things yet.
Comments, concerns, tips, anything would be great.
Thanks
