So guys, to end my airsoft depression, I decided maybe I should change my playstyle, and get a new start onto airsoft.
To keep my thoughts short, I have two questions...
I''m looking into an AK that has a foldable stock.
That's simply it,

But it has to has a foldable stock, and affordable, so, under $150.

I do have an idea of getting the CYMA $99 foldable stock AK, but I'm having my doubts.
What do you guys think about that?

Well, maybe I shouldn't say the way I played, but more the way I used my guns...
I have my m4 here, which i used to spray because I can see all the bbs, and the problem with it is that the bbs drop 3 feet down, and i'm sick of it.
I never really aimed i just saw where my bb's aimed and adjusted, I also tried to bring a big bulky long gun (it had a barrel extension) over tight corners, and it iddn't really end up well.

With a gun that has a foldable stock, I can go both field, and CQB, helping me in those tight corner shots.

EDIT: I need to make this as least costly as I can...
So if you guys don't recommend the CYMA, what else is there? I need a gun that will last me quite a while. But not over $150...
Also, are the MAG AK47 mid caps nice? I'm looking into buy some, and I wanted to know what you guys thought about it.

But you will realise that when a gun is folded it can be a little Mis-balanced and awkward.....so...Good Luck!! Very Happy

Yeah I do, but I've held one that felt mis balanced, and its not too bad, I can deal with it.
Besides, the unbalanced weight, can't be more then 2 pounds weighing on a gun.
I mean, a buddy of mine had all these accesories on his gun, it was like, 20 pounds on the front side of his gun, and well, nothing on the back...

If your going to play CQB i bet the 74 would be a great option, seeing as its smaller then the AK 47

but
I do want at the same oppurtunity to get some good range from targets about 100 feet away, suggestions anyone?

Oh and to prevent starting another topic, anyone know of a facemask from either airsoft g.i. or evike that can fit glasses into?

I think any of the CYMA AK's I listed would be good.. but that's just an opinion. And there's this mask http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?products_id=3136 which is cheap, has good reviews, and the reviews say it fits glasses so yay Very Happy

For your price range, I believe this is the best option

No waitt....maybe it was this one Very Happy

It's a little over your range, but I think it's worth it.

did anybody read the review "D Horst" left on that Minigun??
"In the first battle I took it to (nobody knew I had it yet) I was hiding in some small bushes while a squad of around 20 guys all with high powered AEGs moved past. They didn't see me and surprise I killed all of them in 5 seconds flat... spraying (even though spraying may be "nooby") "
hahaha...ok Guy Rolling Eyes

I highly recommend the E1 Mp5k, its all plastic, but its small and has a pretty good range.

@Creed
I don't recommend any AEG MP5K. I've used several different brands, and they all had range that wouldn't have hit the broadside of a barn at 10 feet.

@Mike
Have you thought about the G36 series?

NEEDS a folding stock,

EDIT: by the way, what is the barrel size of the AK74?
if anyone knows, that'd be great, thanks.

P.S. who wants to let me hold a few dollars? Very Happy

Oh then that might be good already, lol
Yeah possibly going for an AK74, uh, are the MAG brand AK47 mags worth it?

EDIT: Actually, I really don't know if i can even afford getting a gun over 100 dollars, just a check, what does anyone think of the CYMA AK47 folding stock? I might have to be forced to get that one if anything happens

Double Edit: eh nevermind, I might go for this gun actually, i'll do a bit of persuading and see if this works.
What do you guys think?

I have a set of 5 of the MAG waffle midcaps. They feed great, don't need breaking-in, and they won't start to pry apart if you put too much pressure on the speedloader like the MAG AR midcaps will. Real durable too. You can bang these things around and they'll still function perfectly. These had slightly less side-to-side wobble than my stock mag. I highly recommend the MAG waffle mags over any other mag for the AK.
