Your best bet is probably going to be a website.

Airsoft1.com and nitroairsoft.com are great online places. As for actual Wisconsin places, I don't know. Hobbytown USA in Delafield has a bunch (most are cheap though and the prices are a bit high). There is a place in Ococnomowoc too (Sherpers). They have a small airsoft supply. It's mostly gbb and springer pistols though. Last time I was there they did have a TM M4 though. They have a lot of tactical supplies there thoug too.

Don't forget The Wargame Room in West Allis, PM garyb (owner) for info (www.thewargameroom.com), Wisconsin Airsoft Wars just opened up in Sheboygan CO. http://wisconsinairsoftwars.com/ also Sherper's in Oconomowoc and Hales Corners, but their supply is limited. Also, use the search function, you'll find alot of resources for buying guns.

Also, if your in the Eu Claire area Armsdealer(Jason) has a store down there, he has really good prices and hes a great guy to talk to, He will also be down at the 6th game if im not mistaken
Wargame room is in west allis. They have a good selection.
Online my top 3 are probably airsoftgi.com airsoftextreme.com and airsoftatlanta.com

Buy local, keep the Local Stores and Fields open so we have a place to buy and then a place to play.

It is best to buy locally, I like Wisconsin Airsoft Wars, Airsoft Battlezone or Thewargameroom, they are all good local stores and have good prices. Personally I prefer Wisconsin Airsoft Wars because they have had the lowest prices even out of online stores on a major portion of their inventory, they are just about 15 minutes away and they have amazing customer service. However, your best bet would be Wargameroom because you are pretty close.
If you do choose to shop online, here are a few good retailers that I have dont business with.

I just want to point out that Wisconsin Airsoft Wars is only open on weekends and has only been open for 1 week, so I think it is a bit early to say they have amazing customer service. I do whole heartedly believe in supporting all our local retailers though and plan to visit WAW as soon as possible. There is nothing like having a live person you can speak to face to face about your purchases. Plus, you can get your hands on the equipment before you buy them.
Rattler
04 May 07, 02:27 PM
well, I have seen his customer service in just the one weekend that he was open along with other people. He also has 60 day warranties on all his CA guns and his prices are very good.

I bought from him on opening day...he gave me $20 worth of bb's to test the gun at no charge...he said that if I was not completely satisfied with my purchase, he would give me a complete refund on the used gun and mag...and I could keep the bb's...that constitutes good customer service to me...
He also indicated that if I was not satisfied with the box mag, with which he had no experience, he would not sell any...he refuses to sell bad product...in his words.

ohh yes, I got one of those box mags and they are nice. They have to be wound by hand but they hold 5,000 rounds, will fire 600 continuous rounds on a minute wind. And its only $50

Yeah, I'm not too crazy 'bout the plastic body, but it seems very sturdy and rugged. I've put about 300 rounds through my A-4 S-System with the box mag, and it has preformed wonderfully. The real test will be at Endurance, though.

Jonathan,
Sorry I could not make the WAW grand opening but you know what its like to run an airsoft store. Any estimate on when you might be open during weekdays...can't get away much from the ABZ store on weekends and I like to visit sometime. Wish you the best of luck in your new venture.

Well in looking for a gun for myself I have settled on getting: Classic Army M15A4 C.Q.B. Compact SEAL
My Reason:
It's CQB for one so it will be good indoors (not too long) and it will also be good in the field. I also like the built in RIS, floating barrel, detachable front sight, and the crane stock(extendable)
I have looked alot of places and have found this thing running from 379.00 to 390.00 but the best place with the best price so far is: RedWolf Airsoft with 340.00 and I can also order an upgrade if I wanted...

Can't be at $340, that's under MAP....(Min. Ad. Pricing) is for this weapon is $385. All people have to sell at this, if you sell under you lose your rights to sell CA and most likely, this is a used gun or refurbed gun. Please watch yourself closly on this. It might be able to sell this for $340, than add shipping and so on, than it will be $385.
I have in stock, ( AR013M ) with a 60 day warranty, and I have it as a basic gun, no battery and charger $395 or I have it with a 9.4v 3600 battery and a great, good top end charger package deal, with a 60 day warrenty for $445.
Now thats a top end battery/charger and warranty....can beat that, upgrades are not bad either, tight bore barrel 6.04mm and a 120% would run a extra $80 or so........and I ship free in Wisconsin or instore pick ups. And if something is wrong with the gun, the warranty is with me, I fix at store, no shipping to CA or over seas.
I would like to be open Tues to Sat I hope in less than 3 or 4 months. I hope, I hope, I hope.......I was suppost to be open from the get go, but the people bailed on me and but me behind the 8 ball.

Jonathan, your site seems to be down at the moment.. what brands do you carry? I read further up that you carry CA.. do you have the M15A4 rifle?
Also, about the Wargame Room, what does he carry?
Thanks
Rattler
06 May 07, 05:56 PM
Johnathon has every CA product available, and he has plenty of other stuff. Wargame room has a moderate mix of everything.
I just got a CA M15a4 off Johnathon today and am VERY pleased with it, it is an extremely nice weapon.

cool, thanks for the fast reply.. im about to come home from school and was hoping to get some games in over the summer, its nice to know there are a few stores somewhat close to me ;)
Jadnet
06 May 07, 06:05 PM
OMG I checked on the shipping for them it should be criminal they wanted $61.57!
Anyway I found a thread on the forum about them (here (http://wiairsoft.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2288)) so I think I'll eather go to WAW or airsoftgi or airsoftatlanta don't know yet but I don't think I'll be upgrading it because I don't want the wear and tear on the gears and stuff. If I do upgrade it I will upgrade everything from the pistons and the gears all the way to the spring and motor and even the battery! but I want it to all match so I don't have to worry about the wear and tear problems...

06 May 07, 06:12 PM
what exactly do you want out of it? the CA m15's shoot over 300fps stock and with a ROF of about 1,000rpm. And I would suggest getting from WAW, they are best because he has a return policy and 60 day warranty and he has some good package deals, and you dont have to pay for shipping, and you can hold the gun to make sure you like it....
Jadnet
06 May 07, 06:25 PM
LOL calm down i'll more than likly get it from him anyway! he's local well sort of he's only 137 mi (about 2 hours 25 mins) from my location ;)

I bought my A&K S-system from WAW last weekend and it performed great at the Apoc game. My friend also bought one too. Jonathan didn't have any of the box mags left that some of you guys were lucky enough to get the weekend that WOW opened, but we got an extra hi-cap with it for $120.00. I will definately be purchasing from there again.

just an FYI, an airsoft store in madison will be operational in the not so distant future. selling guns, bbs, tac gear, etc. and also doing repairs and upgrades.
and remember, keep watching the sky!

well, I just bought another M15 (SPR, pre-upgaded) and an ICS M203 from WAW and I am VERY happy :)

just so long as you don't go with the "I did E-bay" route. i would strongly recommend that you do NOT buy air soft GUNS from there..

Not necessarily. What about eHobbyAsia? They have good prices (yet like any other over sea retailer, shipping is expensive) and their whole company is eBay based, I've had no problems with them.

i am talking about the General public that sells on E bay. e hobby, is a separate online store (Basically) although you are correct they run through E bay.
