Airsoft. Paintball guns are, imho, awkward to hold and use.

Ever try those messy damn paintball bb's? If I dont use them for a while, they tend to break.. which sucks because an airsoft gun isnt designed for use with a squeege.

If I voted I would have said paintball, just because I grew up with it. I played airsoft tonight, and half the time im being grazed with bb's and I cant even tell. Paintballs are more defined. And funner to shoot people with.

The paint BBs suck....I have an open breach one that I used for paint BBs, but half the time they blow up in the chamber, and the other half they dont essplode.

My old M92 rep. was easy to clean, I just passed a pipe cleaner through two times. But I lost that, so I had to use my friends spring pistol tonight. :happysad:
