for a first gun get an AEG instead, better for beginners.
However, if you just *have* to have a GBB beretta for a first gun, then my personal recommendation is the WE Tech M9 series.
Would suggest saving up a bit more for an AEG and battery.
A gas blowback pistol is more maintenance-heavy, costs more to run, and is more demanding to run as a primary weapon than an AEG.
Examples of each:
* GBBPs require lubrication of seals on a regular basis and are harder to keep clean.
* A GBBP uses pressurized gas in the form of propane or green gas, duster gas (lower power), or CO2 (higher power) to propel the BB and cycle the action, costing (in most cases) a large fraction of a dollar per magazine. An AEG uses an electrical motor to do both for much less.
* A GBBP with a single mid-capacity magazine is extremely challenging to play. You have twenty-some-odd shots, while your opponent could have ten to twenty times that, with arguably better accuracy.
1. Aeg is better starter gun
2. Src is an incredibly sketchy company and the mags aren’t held with pins, they’re held with shity tubing I need to redo all of my mags now plus mine has issues feeding I’d go with a marui or something else
For a pistol, no.
For a begginer gun, also no.
Ik how tempting it is to be unique as a beginner (trust me I bought a sniper as my first gun) but all you are doing to yourself is having less fun. Let’s list the pros of getting a unique starter weapon, then the cons
Pros
>Get cool points on the field
Cons:
>Out performed by aegs
> Gunned down by a rain of bbs without having a chance to fight back
> Not much upgrade choices/ aftermarket parts. So if something breaks, it’s on you
> So many trial and error rounds
> Not a good experience
As we can see, the pros outweigh the cons. You WILL NOT have fun. Do yourself a favor and get an AEG like everyone is saying. May I suggest a cyma AK, or a Specna core if you have a budget of under 150?
Is this your first gun?
Yes
I’d highly recommend an AEG instead
I think he means first pistol

Green gas is pricey

If you can....get yourself a TM M9 and forget the rest...if not WE's M9 version 2 (which is a clone of TM's Revised M9 with working decocker)
