i used to have a pair when i lived in the dorms at uHawaii. they were all black though, so we painted them orange.

i have to say that nothing smarts like a getting shot in the shins with an airsoft when you're all hungover and all you want is an overcast day.

damn fun though.

and they shoot little yellow BBs. at least mine did. and they were spring action too.

yeah, they come orange as a law.... so people dont mistake them for a real gun, but you can always break out a can of spray paint, or a sharpie...

and they shoot 6mm plastic BB's low mass... but they still hurt like a biach...

I have one, bought here for about 3 USD, its completely black, very heavy, looks real.

They have semi auto versions too, and ones with laser sights.

Im far too mature for such things though.
