So you guys will probably look at my post count and think I'm a total noob. Well, you're right. I've been looking through online catalogs for the past week or two looking for a gun that fits. My main concerns are fps, reliability and of course cost. So here I am asking for suggestions.

I'd like something around the range of 350+fps. Preferably an assault rifle like a 47 or M16. I'm pretty much a noob at everything so if you think my fps requirement is to high feel free to tell me I'm retarded and should go for a realistic gun. I'm mostly going to be doing forest campaigns and urban, so I'd like something will a little pepper. Also can anyone tell me how far a 350 fps .12g BB will fly straight shot, without pointing the barrel up?

Next of course is reliability. I'm am extremely afraid of buying a piece of crap that 'll break in 2 weeks. It should be preferably mostly metal. Respond from your own experiance and point of view I guess.

And last and probably most importantly is cost. I'll be looking for something in the 150-220 range.

I also realize that the perfect answer to all of this would be an AK-47. But the problem with that is that 2 of my friends already have those and I don't want to seem like a tool. Plus they'd get pissed.

So here I am a total noob asking for some help.

Thanks in advance.
