Ive spent too much, i could have bought more gear for wrestling. Instead of buying a new gun, i could have got a new singlet, new sissy shoes, and head gear. Darn. But oh well, i like airsoft a bit more. So it works out. :P

I've spent a good $6,000 give or take a few bucks. Which is plenty!

It'll be a shade under $10k for me over 5-6 years.

Now making me feel like a cheap-ass with less than 700 or so. Over a space of 5 or 6 years, granted half of those being a jobless teenager in high school, but in the next year i'm probably going to spend about 6-7 hundred in some new gear and a rifle that i've badly needed but couldn't afford.

$25,000/6 = $4,000 year

couple guns, some gear, some airsoft trips

not really that farfetched - this sport has gotten exponentially cheaper.

I also have a career and low overhead; what's sustainable and possible for me is not so for others.

Definitely has gotten cheaper.  I remember when I bought my first CO2 pistol, and it was $70.  That same pistol is $30 now!

Too much?   :mrgreen:
Never!

On average:
75.57 per AEG
45.50 Per Gbb pistol

WELL over 5k in this sport and still climbing.
Airsoft forever!

That's nothing.  He's talking about prices well before your time.

Understandable, I expect my input into the cost of the sport to drop alot now that I have all the gear I need now or wanted.
And also not counting how much i've put into gas to drive about the hell that is AZ for airsofting.

Yea, you say that, but then you see a good deal or you watch a movie with some gun that makes you really want it.

I know, that was only about 5 years ago that I bought that.  I'm just trying to put it in perspective for the people who started airsofting within the last year or so.
