This may seem like a very odd question to ask, since Airsoft is a sport and not really a means to protect yourself if threatened, like a real gun. I tried looking for a topic, or answer to this question on the forums but I found none (Please forgive me if a topic like this already exists >_<.) I bought a TM G17 3rd gen about five months ago, not because I was interested in the sport, but simply because guns have always fascinated me and I took a particular interest in the Glock. That, and I thought it'd be cool to own one without having to go through the trouble of getting a license to carry a real gun (plus I enjoy shooting it without it alarming everyone in my neighborhood.) Last night I got to thinking, "If someone broke into my house would I be able to fend them off with my G17?" Granted I know if they had a real gun on them I'd probably be screwed. Also I don't keep my gun loaded because I heard that it isn't good for the O ring in the magazine and wears down the spring, but I'm not really sure of this. If I kept air and BBs in my magazine 24/7 would that essentially ruin the magazine? I know, this seems like a very far fetched question. Silly even, but I'm really curious. I know Airsoft can be harmful, depending. My G17 ranges from 290 FPS to 310. So could that ward off anyone who decided to brake in? Or at the very least scare them off? Thank you for your time! ^-^

I ordered an APS Boar Tactical Advanced Edition EBB AEG a few months ago. It has been used twice in proper games and that is it. It has been kept and maintained well. Recently the charging handle has become disconnected (it seems) from the plate that blows back every time you shoot. The plate now no longer blows back as if it is not connected to a spring anymore and is loose and the charging handle inst connected to anything (it seems). THIS IS ONLY THE START. Also something has serious issues within the gun. It wont shoot consistently. The motor makes a sound like it is trying to shoot but then it doesn't, and every now and again it might shoot like twice but then it goes back to that noise that sounds like its stuck. Im not too familiar with fixing thee guns so I would greatly appreciate any help or trouble shooting I could get. I bought the gun off Evike.com and I have contacted APS who never got back to me and evike was not much help so I thought I would come to you guys!

I'm considering getting into airsoft, and was wondering is 180 FPS is good? I'm doing one versus ones in a small forest. Probably 20 yards max. The gun is electric and select fire, semi and full auto.
