So I was planning to buy an airsoft gun from canadian tire and the site and it said the they don't sell to people under 18. So I was wondering if I brought my dad what he would have to do to buy it for me and if they would let me pick it out and stuff with his permission. Also if anyone has used it before feel free to tell me if they are fun, and what I could do with it.

Your dad can buy it and give it to you after. The stuff from CT is pretty crappy compared to dedicated retailers, but good enough for tinkering around with in the basement. Quality will only last you a month I'm guessing. A spring powered one should be good enough if this is your first time, you'll get used to the strength of the spring. Don't bring it outside, some people might think it's a real gun even though it is clear.

My uncle bought one to scare away raccoons.

I really wouldn't suggest buying anything under $120. Regardless, I've taken friends to EB games to purchase their games for them; I would assume airsoft weapons are similar. Legally, these is little that can be done to stop an adult from purchasing an airsoft weapons, and less they can do to prevent a law suit if they refuse to sell it.

MrClucky said: " Did you like yours? What did you do with it?" Colt 1911 Spring powered. Lasted 1800+ rounds before a plastic part that holds back the spring when cocked broke. I loved it so much since it was my first one that I spray painted all of it and now it is black, with brown grips and a silver barrel. It's hanging on my wall right now

Did you just shoot cans and stuff or was there something else fun to do with it?

Print out targets for my airsoft trap, google "airsoft trap" and it should have a target with a black netting on the back Learn how to hold a pistol Practice shooting Took about five seconds to aim and shoot each time, and to get used to the power of the spring I've gotten a lot better and hardly even notice the spring when I cock
