Airsoft - What is the point of a full stock?

Question

Well, I wanna order an airsoft gun. I'm looking for a electric airsoft gun such as an AK47. But I don't know if I should get and extendable stock or full stock. What is the difference?

Answer 1

The biggest difference is, with a full stock, you can use a larger battery that will shoot faster and hold a charge longer.
There is more room inside the full buttstock for battery than there is in the foregrip or under the top cover, which is where folding-stock models must hide their battery.
Past that, it's a matter of personal preferences.

Answer 2

If you play in a variety of places extendable is nice.
the reason for that is that if you were playing in the woods in an open area you would want full stock to be a bit more accurate.
Then if you suddenly got to an abandoned house, you would want the stock all the way in for maneuverability.

I prefer extended stock because it's nicer to rest your cheek on and sometimes extendable stocks get loose or break

Answer 3

the full stock is more comfortable for aiming and laying your cheeks on, whereas the extendable stock is used more as a pray and spray type of feature. I like the full stock more because it seems more realistic.

Answer 4

I ask myself "What's the point of Airsoft?"

For the price of three Airsoft guns I can get the real-freakin' thing at a used gun shop.

I can actually understand Paintball...but Airsoft? I guess that's what you kids in the suburbs have to do to be cool?

Get a real gun.
