Welcome to the forums.

BTW, if you're looking to go Navy SEAL, you'd want to try the US Naval Academy at Annapolis, not West Point. If you still want to try West Point, and go SOCOM, you'd be better off trying for the Army Rangers or Army Special Forces.

No problem. Annapolis is the Navy's version of West Point, so it would seem to be a better match for Navy SEALs.

cspyratos, please read rule #5. Also, since you and oddwon are friends, use AIM if you plan to make really small posts -- this is a forum not an AIM conversation. Thankyou.

When it comes to airsoft I'm not really a pistol man (I only have hands-on experience with my personal KSC CZ75), but www.midwestairsofters.com has a whole section of their forum dedicated to pistols: midwestairsofters.com/...board=55.0

cspyratos, everyone's got their personal tastes for pistols. I personally enjoy my Beretta, and I know Toggle swears by his P226. Basic things you want to look for is how comfortable is it to carry, how accurate, and how reliable the pistol is. After that is looks, imho. Wink But for starters, it is often suggested to get an AEG over a pistol, as it will be your primary weapon.
