So I hope this is the right place to put this out on, but I guess I was looking for a little advice on my first real gun, I have seen quite a few decent ones, and price really isn't an issue, though obviously I am not looking to go out and spend 500$ on a gun, I am willing to spend what is needed to have something that I know will at least last me a long wile, and give me plenty of entertainment out of it. I figure ,even though I am new, that I should look into AEG's since I have the money for them and willing to spend said money for them, but I suppose my question is, Since I am newer to the game, should I maybe consider simply sticking to spring? At least until I have gotten more into airsoft, or would gas, despite its higher upkeep cost, be a better choice in the longer run?
Basically I have already read a lot that AEG's seem to be more of the pro circuit user weapon, being more expensive upfront cost but much lower upkeep costs since it runs off a battery, and the gas powered guns being more for intermediate players, since it gives off higher performance, but has a lower upfront cost, and a higher upkeep cost with the refilling of gas, and finally spring being more for newer players who are first getting into the game since they are cheaper upfront, and next to no upkeep cost aside from ammo. I do know the advantages and disadvantages of all 3 of these types of guns, and I know that a good spring sniper might be a good first gun to get, but I still wouldn't mind getting a good AEG AK47-S tactical since it had a lower price tag on it.

I have even heard good things about JG so I thought they might be a good company to deal with for my first real gun. I do actually have a already a KWC Spring .45 that I got a long time ago as a gift, and it still functions amazingly well, and as a sidearm I suppose it could still work, but I worry if I should consider getting something else for that.

I am also looking into other gear for my first go around, and I have even come up with a full kit that ranges around 450$, this including camo, safety gear, pack, camelbacks, gear bag etc etc, as well as the CYMA AEG M4 with 2 additonal clips, and a extra battery.

P.S. I am new to the airsoft scene, and my knowledge is limited, so please keep it as informative and simple as possible. THANKS GUYS!!
