New to airsoft

October 29th, 2007

I’m a newbie just getting into airsoft guns. I’m also a SG1 fan. So the choice of weapon has to be a FN P90!
Looking aound the net I’ve seen the Tokyo Marui P90TM on sale for £170-£210… I’ve also seen one by Well that sells on Ebay.com for $20.
They are both 1:1 replicas, both weigh abouth the same and are both AEGs. The only difference in specs between the two is that the Marui one has a muzzel velocity of 28dfps while the Well one is only 150fps.
My questions are these… Would it be worth getting the cheaper gun to start with? What are the REAL differences between them?  Can it be upgraded to similar capability to the Marui?
