Guardian, please use the Modify button to edit your post if you wish to add more the what you have said. Double posting is against the forum rules. Also, we're not too hard on people about their grammar around here but some of your sentences are downright painful to read. Please make an effort not to spell like a third grader from here on so that we can all understand what you're trying to say. I'm sorry but "ur" and "snipering" aren't real words. For more information, please consult rules 4 and 6:
And now on to your post... to be frank, sir: Airsoft is Military Simulation, agreed? So why would a
"serious" sniper, as you say, not carry a pistol into airsoft combat when the real operators carry them? Our sport is replicating the real deal, and guess what? The real deal guys carry pistols if anything, not mini Uzi's. Why would we all want run around toting mini Uzi's like you say we should? You're arguing that real-world snipers don't carry side arms and then you go on to suggest carrying a mini Uzi of all things? I don't see what point you're trying to make there.
In regards to pistols giving away your position, ever heard of a suppressor? Even without one, let's say you're walking patrol through a forest and you hear two noises: a loud, whining automatic machine pistol or a dull thud from a distance. Which are you more likely to think of as someone shooting at you? I'll help you out, the machine pistol. All airsofters' ears are adept at picking up that sewing machine-like noise in any environment. A thud or pop like that of a GBB or NBB pistol could be mistaken as a falling branch or something of the like. In short, it's a much more natural sound than a whining electric gun.
Please compare option 1 (Mini Uzi AEP):
I'm assuming, based on your trashing of any sort of gas gun, that you haven't been around airsoft long enough to know that the first mini Uzi's were gas powered and indeed are some of the loudest replicas out there.
Now for your argument of weight. Awesome, your electric Uzi weighs a pound or so.. that sounds like terrific build quality. Sometimes weight must be sacrificed in order to have a better functioning replica. And how bulky is this leg rig you're talking about stuffed with an Uzi and a couple
magazines?-(not clips) Your plastic Uzi maybe be light but it's bulky and awkward to carry around all day, let alone lay comfortably in a hide.
This brings me to my last point about pistols, most people get them as collectors or 'for-show' items. It's been said that "Airsoft is 90% looks and 10% functionality." There is a strong 'coolness' factor that ties into GBB's/NBB's and that is one of the reasons they are so popular. You may love your mini Uzi and that's fine, but the fact of the matter is that some of your points are not only beyond weak and loosely based on fact, but downright false. And again, if your grammar and punctuation were a little better perhaps I could have understood the fine details of what you were trying to say.
Thanks for readin',

P.S. I find it somewhat offensive that you say that wars are won solely because of firearms, it's the brave men and women who risk and sometimes give their lives that win the wars.. not the guns. Not only that, but why would you expect a pistol to 'win' a war? It's a pistol, that's not what it was designed for.
