Shotgun questions

[HGI]

I'll keep this as short as possible.

I've been out of airsoft for at least 5 or more years, I've owned a wide range of rifles/pistols and had a m3super90 at one point. Out of all the airsoft guns I've owned I liked the m3super90 the most cause it was light weight, super reliable, didn't have to charge any batteries and a bag of BB's lasted me months. Not to add the shotgun was actually really cheap in the 1st place. My 2nd fav gun I've owned/made was my custom tm mp5k2 pdw that was heavily upgraded to 400fps, but that cost me around $2,000 and month of searching for parts and building.



I haven't done any research cause I'm posting here to see if I can get any quick info.

With my new job on its way I'm reconsidering getting back into airsoft for the summer months, now with all these years that passed and new airsoft products that been released I'm wondering if any new shotguns have been released that I'm unaware of, especially a gas(propane) one. Or am I looking at getting another TM M3Super90?

Thanks for any input.

forget the ''reliable'' and ''cheap'' part of what you liked about your M3 if you want to go gas shotgun...

If you're just going to get back into it for a few months, pick up one of those clone M3 shotguns. They're a bit lighter than the Marui, but they look the part. It'll save you about 200 dollars for a few months of fun. They fall apart with repeated use, but chances are you won't game it enough for it to break in the summer.

As for gas shotguns, they've become really fancy, but most are still ungameable. Check out the ACM made M500s for gameable gas shotguns (no shells, though).

I've got a Smith and Wesson M3000 recently! can't wait to game it, only shoots one bb at the time but meh... tri-shot shotties are rare like pope shit.

That's alright that the M500 doesn't have shells.... I sure wouldn't want to go searching for used shells after every game. What do one of these normally go for price wise in Canada?

Also stock fps? They ok on propane? upgrades available?
