Airsoft vs Paintball

Thoughts? I would much rather invest into Airsoft and play it rather then paintball. The price's for paintball equipment/ammo are crazy high! $60 for a box of 500 paintballs? Thats crazy seeing how i pay $20 for 5,000 high grade BB's. Also in paintball you have to watch out for fags who freeze their balls and getting shot by them.

Just a quick input on the topic. Willing to debate with anyone on how Airsoft is better.

I like Paintball. When someones gets hit there is no bullshitting, in airsoft someone can easily say you didn't hit them. Sure it's more expensive but playing in tournaments is well worth the investment.

I disagree 100%. Airsoft is a "sport" for pussies. Paintball may be a bit more expensive but it is 10 times better. And I dont worry about kids freezing Paintballs because I dont go to arenas. I get a group of like 20 ppl and go in the mountains or a field. And Paintballs hurt. When a BB hits you it just feels like a pebbel was tossed on you.
A box of 500 paintballs is more like 8$ because a box of 2,000 is 30$

I would rather do airsoft than paint balling. It hurts less anyways.

My airsoft gun is 450 FPS. Hurts as much as paintball, and I do both -_-

Thats ridiculously high! Why do you need that much FPS?

At 500 FPS, you must legally register it as a Fire-Arm.

Ok... still why do you need it to be that high? Thats really pushing it to the extreme don't you think...?

Paintball is more fun simply because you can inflict more damage upon your target. With a BB, you might get a small "ow" reaction, but when you empty your paintballs on some poor guy, they're gonna be in pain for a while (unless they decided to be poor sports and wear the thick padding stuff)

airsoft is much better, the only downside is theres always a douchebag that doesnt call there hit.

unless you want painted trees (make it blue paint so you have smurf trees), id say airsoft, less expensive, can do any time, and a dent is easier to get out than paint.
