I think 280 is good for a first game. Trust me, you'll know what your gun needs once you've played with it. My first few rounds played of my first game were with my upgraded M15 rifle (shooting 350), and it was awesome. I played a couple of rounds with my stock Real Sword Type 56 (shooting 310), and really, I liked it almost as much. It was more the feel of the gun that I liked less than the M15, really.
But - I could tell that in the thick brush we were playing in, the higher velocity of the M15 gave me better penetration and got me several kills whereas the lower velocity guns being shot at me (stock TM P90s) couldn't cut through the brush to tag me. In the open, my Type 56 was more accurate at long range, despite its lower velocity.
Start with the gun stock, and you'll see for yourself what it needs. TM make great upgrade platforms. When you do decide to upgrade, the only 2 things you should really consider changing are the bushings (metal to replace the nylon ones), and maybe a slightly stronger spring.
