hi i'm just getting back into the hobby and i'm looking for a bit of buying advice.
First I'm looking for a fun shooting style of gun, i'm considering the M1A1, the M3 grease gun, and the M712....any thoughts/opinions on the way to go? The M1A1 is on the pricey side,but still consdiered

Second I'm looking for more of a shooters pistol. Somethign that is easy to load (and can hold enough bb's to make it worth while), is decently built, has blowback, and obviously accuracy. I'm also hoping that $200 or less gets somethign decent

Finally where is a good place to shop? I've reached out to replica air guns and air gun source. Phone numbers are no longer in service, and neither has responded to emails.
Thanks

The full auto blowback BB guns can be fun. I have umarex MP40, Mauser, Luger.
The full auto's use a lot of CO2. And accuracy sucks.

If you want accuracy you need a Pellet gun with a rifled barrel.

Check out AGS. You can get multishot blowback pistols. 10 round rotary mags, 30 round belt mag.

If you want better accuracy in that price range. Your looking at a single shot rifle
